I get it. I’ve been there. The dark nights of the soul. The loneliness. Feeling lost. Feeling hopeless. I survived my sister’s suicide at 20, more grief when my 44 year old brother died suddenly and then breast cancer at 39. I was born a healer. Born into a dysfunctional family where aggression was the norm; a mother with BPD and psychotic depression, a father with social anxiety. My 20s were a shit show and I have climbed my way to success and recovery since then. My mission is to give you a shortcut learnt from my journey into self-respect, self-love, purpose and meaning. Importantly, for you to also know your Divinity within.
