I am no authority or claiming to be any sort of guru. I am only experiencing, navigating through my internal world, and sharing it. I was the perfect example of what many of us experience in our lives. Too busy for reflective quiet time, living with daily mental stress, anxiety, rushing around, just going through the motions, complying with what I thought success was, seeking external validation…and then everything was taken from me in an instant with the tragic loss of my beloved husband almost 20 years ago.

I was a military officer, civil/environmental engineer, and licensed clinical social worker, a very mind-led person who had to learn to connect with the heart. It wasn’t until my life completely changed at the young age of 29, where my daughter and I were left to pick up the pieces and figure out how to rebuild. I had time to reset and go within, walk in my darkness, realign with my internal light, and do it over and over again, as I learned my soul’s current and it’s natural ebb and flow. I realized seeking from the outside can be fleeting, unfulfilling, even devastating. I became aware of the constriction inside myself and worked to expand it.

Today I am a poet, author, writer, and mystic. My journey has been shedding every role I thought I had to do perfectly, and building a more stable and balanced internal foundation that is in alignment with my divine sacred self and source energy—what I’m building now, nobody can ever take away. My only motivation for sharing my experience is to inspire and offer support for your own unique and sacred journey.
