My Blog.
I am a big believer that one size does not, in any way whatsoever, fit all.

So on this blog I offer self-awareness : a medium by which you understand who you are, what your authentic power looks like and how you would like to live your truth. This blog revolves around guiding ourselves back to our true state of power – at home, at work and within ourselves.

The Ripple Effect | How do we progress as a gender?
With the celebration of Women’s day, I find it necessary to reflect on how far women have come to accurately perceive how far it is we have to go. According to the 2016 Fortune 500 list, women hold only 4.2% of CEO positions in America’s 500 biggest companies (which is a drop from the previ…

The Battle Against our Bodies
We fight, we fight and we fight. We fight to get our bodies to look like what fashion models, reality stars and social media mandates. We diet at the expense of what's good for our bodies. There is a billion dollar industry in makeup, cosmetic surgery and diet plans lining its very wealthy p…
