Getting there . . .
Cortney has a bachelor's degree in English/professional writing from the New York Institute of Technology. Her background includes working as a staff journalist, photographer and copy editor for The Malibu Times. In the 1990s, she founded Lighthouse Fellowship, a metaphysical center that hosted classes in astrology, meditation, dream interpretation, NLP, shamanism and rebirthing, along with nondenominational Sunday services and psychic fairs.

Spiritual path
As a child, Cortney's spiritual views were shaped by a church she attended that embraced both Christianity and Eastern teachings such as karma and reincarnation. Fascinated by astrology and dream interpretation early on, Cortney began buying metaphysical books at age 10 and studying the charts of everyone she knew. Her in-depth studies also include numerology, shamanism, reincarnation and the spiritual-emotional connection between people and animals.  

In her spiritual life, Cortney is guided by a respect for all living things and the belief that the thoughts and actions you send out into the world will come back to you. What keeps her grounded is hiking with her husband, Al Konigsfeld and their malamute, Kaya.
