For a long time, I felt like I was doing everything I was supposed to do –– pursuing a meaningful
career, helping others, and building a life that looks successful on the outside. And yet,
underneath it all, there was a persistent sense that something was missing.
I followed my desire to help people by earning undergraduate and graduate degrees in social
work and spent over a decade working as a psychotherapist. I loved the work and the people I
supported. But over time, I found myself asking deeper questions about my own purpose,
fulfillment, and what it really means to experience lasting healing and peace.
This search led me to Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy ––
and to the study of Christian Science. What I discovered wasn’t just a new perspective, but a
completely different understanding of God, identity, and what it means to live a meaningful life. It
answered questions I had quietly carried for years and brought a sense of clarity, peace, and
purpose that I hadn’t found anywhere else.
That discovery changed the direction of my life. Today, I’m a Christian Science practitioner,
teacher, and lecturer. I love sharing this message with others –– especially those, who, like me,
may have checked all the boxes and are still searching for something more.
My talks offer a fresh, practical approach to finding purpose, experiencing healing, and
discovering a deeper sense of peace and direction.

Learning to love your enemies
Loving your enemies can sometimes feel impossible. Christian Science proves that loving your enemy is not only possible, it is natural. But what does it look like to lead with Love, instead of hate? The study of this divine Science and answering Christ Jesus’ call to “love your enemies” in your life replaces anger, hurt, and injustice with forgiveness, freedom, and peace.
A spiritual revolution: The quest to experience God
Click here to watch a brief video invitation from Giulia.
As a child, I learned that God is all love. But at the same time, He (never She) could be distant, unknowable, and judgmental. He was loving, but could punish us harshly. He sent sunshine and babies, but also storms, wars, and disease.
Longing for meaningful connection with the divine, this two-sided God was no comfort to me as I grew older. I wanted to feel unconditional love, that God would be a reliable help no matter what I was dealing with or going through. And I didn’t just want to know about God. I wanted to experience God.
My yearning was actually part of what I understand to be a larger spiritual revolution. Worldwide, across cultures, people are seeking a truer sense of Deity. Spirit, God (or whatever we call our Source) is impelling us all toward a life that’s bigger and deeper than what we perceive with the five senses.
This impulsion led me to Christian Science, which, based on the life and teachings of Christ Jesus, explains that God is pure Love, and the source of all good feminine as well as masculine qualities. It also teaches that we all are God’s beloved children - always, in all conditions - and that what’s true and enduring is the good in our nature. These are and continue to be revolutionary concepts. So revolutionary that, as they change our viewpoints about God and ourselves, we can experience healing from disease and suffering as Jesus showed us.
Here’s an example. A friend of mine had experienced deep feelings of sadness, loneliness and depression – beginning in middle school and persisting through high school. He even attempted suicide.
During this time he was convinced that God did not exist and that the power of the universe was crushing him. But he was mentally conflicted too – he also felt his only hope was in the power of God.
He was familiar with Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, and decided to read it through entirely because he felt his only hope and help would be in consciously understanding more about God. So he decided to read through Science and Health cover to cover, which he did over a dozen times over the next few years.
A growing sense of hope, felt from reading the spiritual ideas on every page, was persistently replacing thoughts and feelings of despair and depression. One night, he had a profound spiritual moment that made this fact clear: The truth of his spiritual being is his oneness, his inseparability with God, and that this truth is a rock to stand on!
My friend said it was like he was suddenly released from being held underwater! During the next few weeks he had a tangible sense of the presence of Love, embracing everything and everyone. He went on to be completely free of the crippling depression and live a life filled with meaningful purpose and satisfaction.
