The Facade: Life's not just what it looks like
On the surface, my life seemed flawless. I held a degree from an elite Ivy League business school, cycled through coveted jobs on Wall Street and in Silicon Valley, was in a committed relationship that was surely heading towards a happily ever after.

Beneath this exterior, my world was on shaky ground. The very foundation upon which I'd built my life was teetered on the brink of collapse. My physical health was the first casualty — hair loss, relentless insomnia, and a compromised immune system that struggled even with digesting the most ordinary foods. Mentally, I was in denial, fighting desperately to maintain an illusion. But as my physical, mental, and emotional energy dwindled, I found myself completely burned out and drained, left with no other choice but to walk away. In a matter of months, I quit my sought-after job, left a city I once called home, and ended a decade-long relationship, as I tried to claw my way out from the rubble of my once picture-perfect life.

The Breakdown: Letting the pain speak
In solitude and sickness, I confronted the deep-seated pain and open wounds. For days on end, I cried and screamed, allowing myself to surrender into the rawness of the experience instead of orchestrating an illusion of what isn’t. In the wreckage of my life, I started to understand the inevitability and the necessity of my dark night of the soul. This life had been built on a foundation of other people’s expectations and definitions of success: what life 'should be,' 'was supposed to be,' or 'ought to be.’ I had never felt safe enough within myself to trust myself, nor did I ever dare to ask myself what I truly wanted.

Once I began to work on these unprocessed trauma, I came to realize that my motivation to achieve was fueled by a profound fear of instability and insecurity, byproducts of repeated experiences of abandonment, abuse, and the need to erase my own identity to fit into new environments. The survival mechanisms triggered by these experiences molded me into a fiercely independent, ambitious, adaptable woman, who measured life by material benchmarks and external validations. While these traits had served me well in the past, they had now become shackles and prevented me from truly living.

The Question: Listening to my inner self
If I am not my accomplishments, then who am I? In my quest to answer this question, I embarked on a journey of self-discovery. I retreated into my cocoon, dropped down from my head to my heart. In deep silence, I heard a faint whisper—a new yet familiar voice of inner wisdom that had always been within me. In stillness and spaciousness, I allowed myself to play, experiment, and explore without attachment to any outcome, relinquishing all expectations and surrendering further into the unknown.

The Awakening: Finding my true path
As I learned to let go, I found myself increasingly held by the Universe, and my trust deepened. Slowly, I emerged from the darkest hour of dawn. It was during this transformative journey of healing that my soul's purpose revealed itself: to elevate the collective consciousness by guiding others to live in alignment and authenticity.

Today, I channel this purpose through offering Human Design readings, leading Sound Healing sessions, hosting women’s wellness & healing retreats, teaching yoga, offering mentorship, sharing my artwork and more. From shedding layers of conditioning that wasn’t truly mine, to finding a path that resonates with my deepest truths, I am committed to guide others in remembering their own truths.
