HOW DO YOU DESCRIBE WHAT YOU DO PROFESSIONALLY AND WHAT IS YOUR GIFT?

Since grade school I’ve been bothered by the way girls/women judge and treat each other. My special gift is getting to the root of my client’s insecurities, learned behaviors, and negative self-image. My magic is guiding them to search inside for the power that has always been there…just waiting for them.

WHAT IS YOUR EXPERTISE?

I’ve been through some very rough times. I made it, somehow. The lessons taught me.

WHY DO YOU DO WHAT YOU DO?

What I do, guiding women to find and make time for themselves, to live a joy-filled life, is my purpose and my mission. I wish I could help every woman who suffers. That’s why I coach, write, and the reason I founded www. mybodymindspirit.com. My passion is to learn and experience all I can in order to guide women to their desired results with empathy, love and compassion.

HOW ARE YOU ABLE TO DO IT?

I get my strength from inside and the fact that everything is temporary. I ask for guidance from the Universe, and oftentimes I depend on a few friends’ and family’s unconditional love.

HOW DID YOU GET INTO IT?

Way too much to write…but I’ve given purpose to my pain by reaching out, being there, and listening to women with similar experiences.

WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR BIGGEST LESSON OR INSIGHT?

The major and most difficult lesson I’ve learned is that we are responsible for our own happiness. If you seek joy it will find you, if you focus only on the bad, that’s all you’ll see. Choose the good, feel the joy, make every day a good one. Wire your brain to be optimistic!

WHO HAS BEEN AN INFLUENCE IN YOUR LIFE?

Inyanla Vanzant’s books and teachings helped me to overcome a very painful time in my life. My favorite teachers have been Dr. Wayne Dyer, Bruce Lipton, Greg Brayden, Dr. Joe Dispenza and Dr. Andrew Weil.

DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE QUOTE YOU WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITH OUR READERS?

A quote I like from Dr. Dyer is, “If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.” There’s also a saying about dandelions: Some see weeds, others see wishes. I say, “Choose wishes.”
