Meet Cynthia Dugger | Spiritual Light-worker & Chakra Healing Facilitator

We had the good fortune of connecting with Cynthia Dugger and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Cynthia, what inspires you?

For as long as I can remember, I attracted others who would feel pulled to tell me their life story. Whether it is in the line at a retail store, grocery or on an airplane – the universe would introduce these beautiful souls on my path. Holding space and allowing a ‘stranger’ to feel heard and understood – was something friends and family would tease about saying “these things happen-only to you”
Somewhere along the way, my awareness to the synchronicities in life heightened… with the realization of how purposeful and intentional every moment in life is meant to be received and lived. This is when my Spiritual Awakening began.

In 2018, I received my 200 hr Yoga Teacher Training certification, I chose an accelerated cert program that allowed me to achieve my certification after an 18 day intensive program in Costa Rica. The whole experience was pivotal in my healing process and from there, I began to trust my intuition and follow the signs that I knew deep within my heart, would lead me to ‘my purpose’.

In 2019 through 2021, I let go of any and all toxic relationships in my life, found my footing and began to flow through life – finally understanding that when met with resistance; push or pulling anything in life, truly means its just not for me.

In 2022, I listened to the calling to sit with a plant medicine called Ayahausca, in which case I began to peal away the layers of limiting beliefs, lack of worthiness and the fear of failure. I began to LIVE the life of surrender, trusting Source to attract only what serves my Higher-Self. It is surrender, that gave me the courage to quit my Corporate IT career, and dedicate all of my efforts to my gift of healing others. It is difficult to convey the fear and feeling of ‘cliff-jumping’ this action felt like, however the signs were always there.

So, what inspired me?

Source, inspired me.
Accepting my commitment to serve, inspired me.
Witnessing my loved ones heal ‘through’ my healing, inspired me.
The knowing my sole purpose in this life, is to break the generational trauma cycles,
and to act as a guide or messenger of Source, to inspire others to begin their healing journey.

I, inspired me.

What should our readers know about your business?
I feel like I have lived 9 lives, in this current life. I have been blessed with an abundance of humble wisdom through my experiences as an Empath; as a competitive gymnast/coach/judge, Mother, Wife, Single-Mother, IT consultant in Corporate America to see and accept my healing gifts. I now realize, that it is every chapter in my life that prepared me for my readiness to serve.
I am proud of my trust in the universe, and most importantly, the trust in myself, to have the courage to leave my IT career and launch cynful peace. Words cant describe the fear I felt from leaving behind my IT career, which I perceived as security, as my identity, and my worth.
With everything in life, we are presented tests and lessons, to bring our souls closer to Source. And with everything in life, it is ‘how we respond’ to the tests and lessons. Finding gratitude in every bump in the path, while trusting it is always for my highest good, and allowing life to flow. Flow means, removing expectations, living in the moment and reacting as the moments occur and trusting your intuition along the way. I read a book called “the surrender experiment” which brought clarity to this concept.
How am I different?, when we are all ONE.
Through my personal healing, I radiate light and love in everything that I am. The intention I put into every last detail of hosting my retreats and holding space for healing souls is heart-centered and authentic.
I am focused on providing the education and the tools in 1:1 sessions and retreats to bring awareness to the root of your traumas, causing ailments and disease to begin to realize that YOU are the medicine.
My soul purpose in life is to share my heart and my gifts of healing to others to inspire connection Back Home.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Born and raised in Cleveland, OH, moving to Scottsdale, Arizona in 2020, the opportunity to host friends and family has been plentiful. Arizona offers wonderful diversity in experiences from hiking, paddleboarding, antique shopping, delicious restaurants, night-life and so much more.
Over the course of 7 days, I would ensure we:
-spent a day on Lake Pleasant, paddleboarding and glamping from my Class B RV
-attend a yoga class at the Biltmore Lifetime and afternoon on their rooftop pool
-spend 2 days in Sedona, visiting The Crystal Garden Fairy, hosted by my dear friend and fellow light-worker, Linda, followed by a visit to a horse farm to fill our hearts with some Equestrian Healing hosted by my dear friends Suzanne and Stephanie
-definitely a spa day and lunch at The Sanctuary
Its difficult to chose where we will eat, however, top of mind -musts, would be The Henri, for savory comfort food, Buck n Rider’s for a delicious spread of seafood, The House of Brasserie for a beautiful ambiance and diverse menu, and Pitch for a casual brunch

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?

I have several pivotal moments in my life that brought very special people into my path. All of which played an important role in providing unconditional love, confidence and encouragement to follow my heart, to achieve my dreams.

I am overwhelmed with gratitude that both of my daughters, Emily and Megan, have chosen the path of healing and connection to Source. It is their pride, active healing, support and unconditional love that reinforces my worthiness to serve.

A very special thank you to my Mom, Diane Bednar, who has embraced my flow in life and feels through my transformation , to inspire her to continue to heal within.
It is the healing that brings our hearts closer to my Dad, who is supporting me from above.

Truly, my deepest gratitude is to the divine plant medicine, Ayahuasca and the Maegical team, my teachers, who serve this beautiful medicine. They provide a safe container with unconditional love, discernment and direct connection to Source to guide our souls to healing, ultimately to find our Higher Self.
