Can you share a bit about your personal journey and how it shaped the work you do today?
I had a defining moment about 30 years ago when I was diagnosed with Cancer. This was the moment of realization it was time for a change in my own journey. I was constantly trying to people please, never saying no, staying quiet, always go go go no matter how tired I was. Burning that famous candle at both ends, living a way of life that didn’t serve me. After going through my own healing process-counseling, reading many books on wellbeing, meditation, just being on a constant journey of self exploration and awareness, with a deep sense of personal reflection. I realized this trauma that shook me to my core allowed me to share with others and be there as a support system for them, taking me into Life Coaching and Mindfulness Meditation Teaching. That’s when I knew this was my calling at the core…to help others do the same.
What is the core message behind the work you do with woman today?
My core message is:” Speak your truth” I love to help woman uncover the truth of who they are, reclaim their power from within, and live authentically. Whether it’s through one-on-one coaching and/or meditation or speaking engagements or within group settings with community. My goal is to allow and create that safe, confidential space for woman and/or transgender to be seen, heard, and supported as they grow on their own journeys.
You’ve shared that you love helping woman reconnect with themselves. Why is this so important to you?
Because I understand and know what it is like to feel disconnected and alone. We often as woman try to live up to the expectations or stay in survival mode. But healing only happens when we can really return to our inner selves, to that inner voice that knows who we are and what we need. We have always had the answers inside of us of how to be strong. I would love to see woman to stop playing small, to speak loudly their truth and to be recognized that they don’t need to be fixed, they are perfect just the way they are. I want them to see themselves in that mirror of truth and witness how strong they are and that they are supported.
What are some of the biggest challenges woman face in this journey, and how do you help them overcome those?
Shame, embarrassed, not aligned with their true self’s, woman feel a guilt for putting themselves first or for speaking up. It’s a constant label or judgement or criticisms that they don’t deserve for being true to what they believe. My support for their journey to guide them gently in releasing the shame, judgements, critics, guilt by building a new narrative. One where they can take that center stage and create the life they wish to have, they can make empowered choices and celebrate their worth and inner beautiful voice. Show them they have that platform to be seen and heard and self-empowered with awareness of who they really are and want to be.
What advice would you give to a woman who feels lost or unsure of her path?
Start by getting very quiet and really listen to your own inner voice, shutting out all the other noise. That voice has always been there, even though you’ve silenced it for a long time. You don’t need to have it all figured out, just take one courageous step at a time. Always know that you are never alone on that path of self exploration. Stop and give yourself grace and compassion with self love as you deserve it and be kind to yourself. Loose the inner critic and judger, accept who you are inside and partner with that beautiful person.
“When a woman shares her truth, she gives permission for others to do the same. That’s how we heal — together.”
