Find out why this 'Friends’ star left Hollywood for a totally new career

After her groundbreaking role on ‘Friends,’ Jane Sibbet has put Hollywood in the rearview and is focusing on a new journey!

Jane Sibbet portrayed Ross’ first wife, Carol Willick on ‘Friends,’ and it made history as the first lesbian wedding on network television. She’s now looking back at her Hollywood career and letting us in on her new journey as an energy healer.

While living in Topanga, California with her then-husband Karl Fink, she would host goddess circles for groups of 15 to 100 women. “They would come to my home and eventually my ranch, where we did a lot of the work. There was a lot of spiritual activity,” she remembers.

This wasn’t enough though. Sibbett felt a calling to move to Hawaii. So, in 2015, Jane and Karl packed up their home and made the move to the island. That’s when they launched their production company, Wild Aloha Studios and eventually became keynote speakers at the Big Island Film Festival.

“My husband and I split [when] we were in Hawaii, and I was on my hands and knees because I was really brokenhearted by everything, and part of that was my stuff that I had to deal with,” she mentions. This is when she found her newfound path, while she was at the epicenter of heartbreak and personal growth, she embraced energy healing.

“He and I had been producing documentaries for healers and one in particular, [Abby Electriciteh]. My work with him suddenly became part of this organization, because I’m really collaborative, so I wanted everyone to be in on this. [This healer] asked me to go from [working on] the documentaries to producing these live events, so it was a perfect synthesis of my belief in the gift of him [and] what he was doing and me coming off of ‘Friends.’” She continues, “then somebody said, ‘Hey, you were so good at that. I know somebody else who needs your help,’ and so I went to the one person, and then I did the next person, and I did the next.”

Starting as a collaboration between her and Abby, it quickly grew, and Jane had her first experience at one of his events. “He tapped me on my third eye and I went down, I passed out into the state of bliss for about an hour. There was no thought, there was no fear, there was just – you can’t even say it but on the other side of it, days later, it was bliss. Some people came up to me afterwards and [said], ‘We see this light coming off of your hands,’ because while I was under [the healing trance], my hands started to dance.”

This was the start of her “dancing hands,” she elaborates. “I woke up the next morning, my hands woke me up. They were dancing above my head, and I began to just watch them with fascination, again, no fear, no thought, just watching as each digit was coming online. They were showing me how they could move independently without me.”

What Jane feels is special about her healing powers is that her gift emerged naturally and without guidance, “I believe in it, I trust it [but] it’s just not what I do. This wasn’t trained. This just came in fully fleshed, immediately.”

“I never wanted it [and] I wasn’t looking for it, I just wanted to go back to being an actor. That was much more fun. I never had aspirations to be a healer. When I was working with the healers, I saw the troubles that they had, and so I’m like, that’s not something to aspire for.”

When Jane isn’t working, she hosts one-on-one sessions and group circles online and retreats. She’s also involved in “Noon Miracles,” an online platform that’s meant to bring artists, healers and storytellers together.”
