Fibre is the soul project of Physician Assistant, Yoga Therapist, and Shaman, Erica Kafka.

Friend. Healer. Spirit.

Inspired by 20 years in the worlds of medicine and yoga, Erica bridges her unique experiences to share a holistic perspective of health and wellness, connecting others to the root and core of who they are. Erica is a gifted leader and facilitator. She has a deep sense of how to listen and sees beyond the overt. She has done work and continues to do work. Self-inquiry and self-growth are not destinations nor options, rather continuous opportunities that she consistently dances with. She walks the talk on her path, unafraid to share when she has faltered and stumbled and when she has enjoyed success.

Erica is rooted in vulnerability and authenticity. There’s no BS here. She is a friend who is nurturing, yet challenges you to live out of your truth. She is a mother twice over, 21 years apart, and relishes in the wisdom of her soul babies. She is a professional who provides valuable and fulfilling experiences for her clients. And, she is an entrepreneur who takes action toward social change.

Erica sees folk from a mind-body-spirit perspective and tailors each person’s experience to fit their unique ambitions. She will never suggest something that isn’t of service or genuine. She will provide the space for you to show up as you are and walk with you as you discover the brightest version of yourself.

Every part of you is welcomed here.

The result of her years in medicine, yoga therapy, and shamanism has led to the development of practical, relatable, and meaningful tools she generously shares with the world. Fibre Holistics is here to help folks find a solid anchor and show up for themselves and others with sincerity and honesty.
