about
My Blog.
I am a big believer that one size does not, in any way whatsoever, fit all. I don’t believe in systems and paradigms – they are externally imposed and often conflict with our own inner truth (which has been silenced much too long). 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 Unseen Woman
Why am I not seen? So often I see women living wholly invisible in their own lives. Unseen and ignored by their husbands, demeaned only to the superficial role of a "wife" for society and ‘arm candy’ at parties. Unseen by children for she only drives them to school, cooks their food and tends to…

Using Joy as our Compass
I often get asked, “How do I discover my purpose in life?” There’s a profound beauty to discovering the answer to this question because it’s unique to everyone. And in all honesty, no one can answer that question for you – I mean no one.Ok, I'm going to be cliché for a second – you hold…
