Meet Kylie Dang | Energy Therapist, Writer and Mindfulness Meditation Teacher

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

Hi Kylie, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
I remember when I was a young child, around 3 or 4 years old, I was sitting in the corner of my kindergarten classroom and watching the other children play, sing, and laugh. I remember asking myself what I was supposed to do. What did I love to do? Did I want to play, too? These types of questions followed me all through my life. On my first resume I was asked what I liked to do and what I wanted to do. I couldn’t think of an answer. When I decided to start my own healing journey, I remember the feelings when I placed my hands on energy healing. It was the first time I felt my heart expanding, my whole body lit up, and I felt truly happy. I felt so quiet, connected, and fulfilled. I believe that in that moment, I knew that I wanted to be an energy healer and energy therapist. That I wanted to do this work for the rest of my life. I had found the answers I had been searching for for so long; who am I? What do I want to do? What do I enjoy? I dedicated myself to my training, quit my full time job, and used all of my savings to open my healing and meditation studio in 2015. I had no plan at the time, I just knew that it was what I wanted to do and that I was willing to work hard and support my clients. I knew that the more I worked on the path, the more the path would open. I really wanted to work with those who worked with the public to reduce stress, help them find balance, and return them to joy without burning themselves out.
Earlier this year, my team and I created and published the Inner Child Healing Oracle Deck to help guide people in coming home to themselves.

Please tell us more about your work. We’d love to hear what sets you apart from others, what you are most proud of or excited about. How did you get to where you are today professionally. Was it easy? If not, how did you overcome the challenges? What are the lessons you’ve learned along the way. What do you want the world to know about you or your brand and story?
In my healing journey, I have been blessed to learn from many teachers in many different modalities. I love transpersonal and spiritual psychology, mindfulness, yoga, energy healing, and I have my personal experience of healing and working with clients. I am most excited to work in supporting clients that are working in roles of creators and aiding them in returning to balance and their creative flows. I guide them in releasing their limiting beliefs so that they allow themselves to be seen and share their creative gifts to the world. I truly believe that we are here to live in joy and not to just work in suffering. I believe that creativity is our nature and that we can remember how to tap into it at any time. I got to where I am today by following the spark within myself. When I felt that spark of joy, peace, stillness, and love the first time I did energy work, I followed it. It led me to where I wanted to go and to what I needed to do in the moment. I didn’t need to see or know the whole picture or map every step of the way. Each time I followed that spark, it led me. It led me to quitting my job, opening my business, how to gain clients, find a team, and so on.
It was not always easy, but it was always fun to take on the challenge. The journey of following the spark is also the journey into yourself and of self-honoring moment to moment. Everytime I came up against a challenge, I always allowed myself time to slow down and check in. Most of the time, I simply needed to remember my beginner mind, my “why” and reason that I love this work. Tapping into that energy again, tapping into the soul and the fire, helped me to remember my purpose and to have the courage to take the next step and move into the challenge. I don’t believe in doing the work just because you see someone else doing it, I think it’s so important to stay in tune with your deep heartfelt intention throughout everything you face on the way.
The lesson I have learned along the way is to be kind to myself. Take time to rest when I feel tired. I know that when I allow myself to rest, I am able to lean back into the creative flow. I also learned that no matter what you create, trust your heart and trust your creation. There is always a place for your creation on the Earth Planet. There is always a place for your unique expression. There is always someone who will be open to your creation.
I want the world to know me as a human being with a kind heart. A being with a dream and as a being who will take responsibility and actions for that dream. I want people to know that my healing art and healing products are there to help you tap into your power. You are able to heal yourself, to create joy and happiness, right here and right now. It is all possible!

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I would love to take a visiting friend to Carmel by the Sea. We would enjoy a beautiful walk on the beach along the ocean. We would sit on the sand and watch the sunset and sunrise, and enjoy the breeze. We could visit the small, chill boutique stores to browse their items, chocolate, and foods.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
The first person that I want to give credit to is my first mentor and spiritual teacher. I am so grateful to him because when he first taught me about energy healing work, he trusted and believed in me. At the time, I hadn’t discovered my healing gift and I wasn’t doing healing work. He saw through me though and knew what I was capable of. He saw the possibility of my future. Through his support, I learned to trust and believe in myself. My group of friends that I met when I first moved to the US truly helped me. Their friendship has always given me the space to share my journey, my ideas, and my dreams.
Lastly, I want to thank my husband. For always trusting me, believing in me, and loving me unconditionally. For listening to me for hours on end talk about my inspirations and passions.
