During her personal quest for answers and guidance, she became enamored with the ancient Egyptian teachings of the Kybalion, enlightened by the Taoist way, fascinated by Kundalini yoga and Vajrayana practices.

She has also been deeply moved and motivated by today’s relationship and sexual experts like Dr Esther Perel, Dr Gary Chapman and Dr John Gray as well as the energetic teachings of modern gurus David Deida and Regena Thomashauer.

During her research, Gillian found herself having to consistently make concessions for outdated labels and pronouns. She had visceral reactions to the use of gender terms, particularly the way femininity and masculinity were being used like weapons to create division instead of desire. Gillian knew these powerful energetic insights were not being delivered as powerfully as they could be. 

 Gillian’s goal was to take these carefully curated and complex spiritual teachings and apply those insights to her own journey in a way that was accessible --  the outcome is Feed the Tiger & Free the Dragon, a book for a modern audience in a language they will understand and relate to.
