Hi, I’m Dr. DaeEss 1Dréa Pennington Wasio — an integrative physician, visionary guide, and spiritual artist helping soul-led humans rise from the Dark Night of the Ego into their most radiant expression.

Through 20+ years of work in trauma recovery, sacred medicine, and creative alchemy, I’ve developed a unique approach to personal transformation that blends science with soul.

My writing here weaves together reflections on post-traumatic growth, conscious evolution, and the sacred role of art in times of upheaval. You’ll find stories, soundscapes, soul medicine, and invitations into rituals of remembrance.

Whether you’re navigating burnout, rebirthing your identity, or stepping into your role as a visionary leader — this space is here to mirror your brilliance, awaken your courage, and call you forward.

This is for the dreamers, the healers, the rebels, and the returning ones.

Let’s rise — on purpose, with power, and in beauty.
