Lia Russ
Lia Russ was born in Colorado in a small shack that clung to the steep slopes of the Rocky Mountains. Crested Butte was a little town that was cut off from the rest of the world for six months every year.
After a difficult childhood and adolescence, Lia began her healing journey with a trip to Asia, as described in Winging It.
Since returning to the United States, Lia has continued to pursue self-exploration and healing both for herself and others. These interests lead to writing her first book, Connecting the Dots: Ancient Wisdom, Modern Science (Masked Path Publishing, 2021). In 2023, she created a free quiz that helps people discover their gifts. Then she wrote a book and that supports the understanding and use of these gifts called Lightworkers Archetypes: Honoring Our Sensitivities, Remembering our Gifts and a follow up The Ascension Guide: Practical Advice For Lightworkers (both Silver Path Publishing 2023.)
Lia also hosts a free support group for sensitive individuals and has started an online school to help Lightworkers navigate Awakening, the Shift, and learning to use their gifts to create the life they want and be comfortable in their skins.
Visit Lightworkers Lifeline to connect with her healing love and magic.
