We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Sierra Kliscz. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Sierra below.
Sierra, so good to have you with us today. We’ve always been impressed with folks who have a very clear sense of purpose and so maybe we can jump right in and talk about how you found your purpose?
I believe I didn’t so much find my purpose as it found me, woven into the tapestry of my life’s journey. My path was carved through the valleys of trauma and the peaks of tragedy, each chapter an echo of pain, yet a beautiful catalyst for awakening. I didn’t know it at the time, but it was in those moments of profound upheaval that I began to realize my choice. I became deeply aware of the prison I had constructed by the movements of my mind expressed in the beliefs and mindsets I harbored. I could no longer ignore the stories I told myself about who I was and what I deserved. It was this narrative, the lock and key that was keeping me confined and limited.
It became clear that I had to think greater than I felt, to rise beyond the limitations of my circumstances and perceptions. I learned that the true purpose is not a destination, but a consciousness – a multifaceted expression of this understanding brought to life by working with people mirrored by the work I do for myself to cultivate homeostasis, healing, and human optimization. I believe we are intricate beings, woven from the threads of both science and ancient wisdom, and that through a holistic approach, embracing modalities rooted in empirical evidence and timeless spiritual truths we can elevate ourselves to higher states of being.
Purpose, for me, is about guiding others to remember their innate wholeness, to transcend the cycles of suffering and limitations, and to awaken the divine potential within. It’s a continuous unfolding, a sacred dance between mind, body, and spirit. It is here in this space my purpose was actualized, where healing becomes a journey of rediscovery and empowerment and humanity becomes the collective vessel for me to witness myself.
Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?
I always find myself at a loss for words when asked what I do, what I represent. I feel words could never encapsulate the essence of my expression for it is beyond language, deeper than the tangible. It lives in the subtle, the sensual realm but l’ll give it a go. Each aspect of my life, my businesses, my bodywork, my artistry, my motherhood serves as a different expression of the same profound desire: to foster healing, balance, connection and sovereignty within the human soul and collective consciousness.
Through Yog Collective and Sovereign Sexuality, I cultivate spaces where vulnerability is embraced, where authentic connection and embodied liberation become portals to deep healing. This is where my life’s journey sings the song of triumph, it is my expression of alchemy manifested into a fluid, diverse platform to hold space and open humanity to recognizing the innate wealth of healing within. By facilitating lifestyle programs, conscious teens programs, intimacy coaching, women’s embodiment, national and international retreats and more I have crafted a life that allows me to tickle all of my creative desires, My work with the The EnerVeda Method exemplifies my dedication to awakening the body’s innate wisdom, harmonizing energy, and restoring vitality through the art of touch beyond technique, touch that cascades with intentionality, compassion and intuition.
All these pursuits are unified by a single thread: the unwavering commitment to create a sanctuary of wholeness. A space where individuals can reconnect with their essence, ignite their inner fire, and find true sovereignty. I approach my teachings from a place of embodied knowing, rooted in my own lived experience, and continuously nourished by the natural world, my daughters, and the wisdom of master teachers from diverse disciplines.
Music, too, is a sacred language through which I channel my inner turbulence and transcendence. It is my way of healing, of surrendering, and of expressing the depths of my soul. Through sound, I seek to touch hearts, to awaken dormant spirits, and to remind us all of our divine interconnectedness.
Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?
Looking back, I believe the three most impactful qualities that have shaped my journey are choice, patience, and desire, each rooted in a divine purpose born from the depths of my unraveling, from my deconditioning that ultimately led to my expansion.
Here is how I see it:
Choice – became my act of sovereignty amid chaos. After a lifetime of trauma and tragedy that threatened to break me, I realized that I always held the power to choose whether I would succumb or rise. Choosing to stand, to heal, and to seek the light, even when the darkness seemed overwhelming. It was this choice, this empowerment that opened the door to profound transformation. It was an act of divine trust, trusting that within the chaos, there is a sacred opportunity for rebirth and awakening.
Patience – was my anchor, my shelter from the storm. It is not passive, but an active surrender to the natural unfolding of life’s divine timing. From the depths of my suffering, I learned that true healing requires time, an intimate dance with the divine rhythm of the universe. Patience allowed me to cultivate compassion for myself and for others. It taught me to honor the process of growth, and to recognize that all things, darkness and light, serve their sacred purpose in our, in my evolution.
Desire – this was my fire that refused to be extinguished. This was and is my divine calling. Out of the unraveling, I discovered that desire is an expansive invitation from my soul to create, to love, and to embody my highest potential. It is the divine spark that illuminated my path through the shadows and propelled me toward my truth. Desire is not mere longing, but a sacred force that awakens our purpose and aligns us with our more authentic expression.
These qualities emerged from the crucible of my deepest unraveling, where I could have crumbled beneath the weight of adversity. Yet, I chose to rise, I chose to be patient and cultivated my desire not in spite of my darkness, but because of it. Through this alchemy, I gained a profound understanding of both the shadow and the luminous core of humanity, recognizing that true strength lies in embracing both.
For those early in their journey, my deepest advice is to cultivate these qualities intentionally. Embrace the power of choice, even in the darkest moments. Practice patience, trusting that healing is a divine unfolding, not a race. And nourish your desire and allow it to be the sacred fuel that propels you forward, guiding you toward your highest self.
Remember, your unraveling is not your end but your new beginning.
What is the number one obstacle or challenge you are currently facing and what are you doing to try to resolve or overcome this challenge?
A challenge is always parallel to an opportunity and an opportunity I feel is continual is navigating is the lingering voice of my past, those inner narratives that no matter how expanded I become attempt to limit my potential and keep me playing small. I see this as part of a sacred, ongoing process of shedding, a humble reminder that each time I expand my capacity, I am also releasing old beliefs and patterns that no longer serve my highest evolution. The more I expand the louder the limits scream at me.
I approach this journey with a deep sense of mastery and awareness, practicing mindfulness to stay present and attuned to these inner voices. I recognize that true growth, that sustainable growth emerges through the very constrictions I face, transforming limitations into catalysts for the very expansion I crave.
While I feel confident in my progress and my ability to navigate these challenges, these opportunities, I remain humble and conscious that there is always more depth to discover more space to elevate my consciousness, and step into an even greater expression of my purpose. This ongoing process is both liberating and inspiring, fueling my commitment to continual process of human optimization.
