Why A.S.P.I.R.E.

Veterinary Oncologist • Integrative Medicine Expert • Metaphysical Teacher • Spiritual Guide
Dr. Erin Bannink is a board-certified veterinary oncologist with over 20 years of experience in integrative medicine, including acupuncture and Chinese herbal therapy. She holds a Graduate Diploma in Veterinary Chinese Herbal Medicine through CIVT and is certified in veterinary acupuncture through IVAS. She is also a Metaphysical Teacher, Spiritual Guide, Healer, Celtic Shaman, Magus Hermeticus (Third Step Ritual Master), and Life Activation Practitioner trained and certified in one of the world’s few remaining true ancient Mystery School lineages—the Hermetic lineage of King Salomon through the Modern Mystery School.
Her passion for helping others grow through life’s challenges arises from her own lived experience navigating the intensity of a high-pressure medical career and the complex intersection of differing belief systems. Witnessing the emotional and spiritual suffering of clients and colleagues alike has deepened her commitment to offering tools that create real, lasting transformation.
Through her work, Dr. Bannink empowers caregivers, professionals, pet lovers and all humans craving wholeness to reconnect with their inner wisdom, restore purpose and balance, and consciously create lives of fulfillment and peace—leading their lives from grounded inner wisdom, rather than being ruled by external chaos.
If you’re feeling the nudge to reconnect with your purpose, to find more peace in your day-to-day life, or to approach your work and relationships from a deeper place of alignment—you’re not alone, and you’re not without tools. A.S.P.I.R.E. was created to remind you of who you truly are beneath the overwhelm.
Through reflections, resources, and real conversations about living whole—body, soul, and spirit—this space is here to support your journey.
