MEET YOUR GUIDES

WHAT MAKES US QUALIFIED TO HELP GUIDE PEOPLE IN THEIR HEALING?

It’s important to understand that our guides are humans just like everyone else. They are not gurus that have been untouched by life’s challenges. Between the two of them they have life experience of overcoming and healing from:

  • Childhood abuse

  • Military trauma

  • Debilitating physical injury

  • Addictions

  • Toxic work culture

  • Death / Loss / Abandonment / Grief

  • Anxiety & Depression

  • Divorce

  • Suicidal + homicidal ideation

We do not only ask for participants to be vulnerable, we stay vulnerable right along side you. We are constantly on our own healing journey just as everyone else. We are simply sharing the tools and techniques they have employed for ourselves to bring us out of the trenches and onto our higher path.

MICHAEL HERNANDEZ

Michael Hernandez is a Marine veteran, expert trauma specialist, breathwork practitioner, and exposure therapist. After surviving a devastating injury during his service in combat, he chose not just to recover  but to alchemize pain into purpose. He walked through fire, not to escape it, but to become the kind of man who could lead others through their own.

Following his time as a firefighter/paramedic, Michael committed his life to the pursuit of healing and human potential. He holds certifications in trauma-informed yoga, Oxygen Advantage instructor trainer, Breath-work Journey specialist, strength and conditioning, Resiliency therapist and has spent the last seven years guiding transformative experiences that fuse mental resilience, physical performance, and deep nervous system regulation.

As Executive Director of Sovereign Journey, he works with individuals, teams, and corporations to build holistic wellness systems grounded in devotion, self-awareness, and embodied leadership.

His mission: help others reclaim their strength, transmute their pain, and rise clear, grounded, and unshakably sovereign.

Natalie Kyle

At 28, Natalie Kyle whispered a promise to herself: “It’s time to truly know who you are.” That quiet vow of curiosity sparked a personal revolution.

Beneath the surface of a high-achieving career in big tech, she carried the weight of unhealed life wounds — and the invisible bruises of narcissistic abuse, endured in both a toxic relationship and a dysfunctional work culture. For years, she pushed through — performing, producing, and proving her worth — until burnout forced a choice: keep betraying herself, or finally come home.

She chose the long road back to self.

Thirteen years as a User Experience Designer trained her to solve complex problems for others — but the most transformative design she ever built was her own healing. Natalie became her own case study, decoding her patterns, unlearning the roles she was taught to play, and reclaiming the truth beneath the survival.

She realized: If you can design your energy, you can redesign your life.

Now, she helps others do the same. Natalie is certified in sound healing, Reiki, life purpose coaching and trauma-informed yoga — and brings a grounded, lived understanding to every space she holds.

With warmth, precision, and presence, she supports those navigating burnout, identity loss, and the ache of becoming.

Because the path is never linear — but healing is always possible. For those ready to meet themselves honestly and unapologetically, Natalie’s already walking beside you.

TREVOR HILL

Trevor Hill is a Marine and Army veteran, former Blackwater contractor, and master barber of over 20 years. His life has been shaped by extremes from war zones and private security contracts to the quiet weight of suicidal despair. But in the moment he nearly ended it all, he made a choice that would change everything: to stop running from his pain and face it head-on.

What followed was a relentless path of inner excavation  peeling back the armor of survival, confronting the wounds of war, and reclaiming the parts of himself he thought were lost for good. A man forged in combat, refined through presence, and rebuilt with purpose, Trevor doesn’t lead from a pedestal. He leads from the dirt. From the fire. From the breath.

Through Sovereign Journey, Trevor helps men dismantle the myths of toxic masculinity, regulate their nervous systems, and cultivate peace, power, and presence from the inside out. His work fuses raw lived experience with deep integrity — offering a path for men who are ready to stop pretending and start living.
