The Elimination Code is born
The seed of the Elimination Code came to me in Africa in 2016, on the final morning of my time with the white lions of Timbavati during my training with the White Lion Trust, led by Linda Tucker.
That same morning, I learned that my brother, Thomas, had died.
I was raw with grief. Grief for my brother, and grief for leaving the lions who had been calling to me for over a year through dreams, meditation, and moments I did not yet have language for. Being with them physically had impacted me more deeply than I could have imagined.
The women I traveled with, our leaders, and Linda surrounded me as I wept. Behind us, the white lions roared and chuffed so loudly it felt like thunder moving through the earth.
Linda placed her hands on my face, wiped my tears, touched her forehead to mine, and whispered:
“You came here to remember. And you have.”
Then she leaned in and spoke a single word into my ear:
Eliminate.
The word moved through my body like truth.
I looked into her eyes and said, “Yes.”

That yes. Spoken in grief, love, and awe
became the beginning of what would later reveal itself as
The Elimination Code.

Not a Download, but a Remembering
The Elimination Code did not arrive fully formed that day. It was not a system handed to me whole, nor a concept to be taught immediately. It arrived as a felt knowing—a resonance that took years to understand, live, and articulate.
The Code itself is timeless. An ancient intelligence that has moved through many lives and many lineages, appearing whenever someone is ready to release what blocks life from moving freely.
What emerged for me was not ownership of the Code, but relationship with it.
In the months and years that followed Africa, the word eliminate continued to echo. Not as something harsh or forceful, but as an invitation to listen:

- What is no longer true?
- What has already completed its purpose?
- What is blocking breath, vitality, and flow?
A Lifetime of Preparation I Didn’t Recognize at the Time
Looking back, I can see that Africa was not the beginning. It was the moment everything converged.
The Code had been forming across a lifetime:
Life always knows what needs to be released.
Suffering often comes not from loss itself, but from resisting the release that life is already asking for.
The Code had been forming across a lifetime:
- In the silence and unspoken dynamics of my family of origin
- In experiences where my voice was taken, lost, or slowly reclaimed
- In the grief of losing my mother and so many others and parts of myself as well.
- In my work with people at every stage of life. Birth, illness, aging, death, where I witnessed again and again what happens when life force is blocked or freed
Life always knows what needs to be released.
Suffering often comes not from loss itself, but from resisting the release that life is already asking for.
Tantra, the Body, and Learning How to Listen
The Elimination Code was gestated within the field of Tantra. Not as philosophy, but as lived practice.
Through years of tantric study and embodiment, I learned how to listen beneath words: to breath, sensation, longing, resistance, and pleasure. Tantra taught me that nothing is outside the field of the sacred—not grief, not desire, not confusion, not power.
It taught me that elimination is not about rejection.
It is about discernment.
The body knows when something no longer belongs. The breath tells the truth long before the mind catches up. Through Tantra, I learned how to stay present long enough to hear what life was asking me to release and what it was asking me to claim.

From Elimination to Pride Energy
As the Code continued to live through me, something else became clear:
Elimination is not meant to happen in isolation.
From this understanding emerged Pride Energy. The recognition that healing, leadership, and transformation are relational. Just as a pride of lions survives and thrives through shared roles, presence, and attunement, humans are designed to remember themselves in connection.
Pride Energy honors both the individual and the collective.
The “I” and the “We.”
Personal truth and communal belonging.

A Living Code, Still Revealing
The Elimination Code is not finished. It is living.
It continues to reveal itself through story, through teaching, through clients, through grief, through joy, and through moments when life asks all of us the same essential question:
What no longer belongs and what becomes possible when it is released?
The Elimination Code is not a way to explain everything.
It is way to navigate our life in relationship with the world, our loves ones and most importantly with ourselves.
What matters most is not how the Code emerged for me. But how it is already emerging in you.

The Elimination Code does not require belief. It invites attention.
If it resonates, you may recognize aspects of it already at work in your own life.
