Wellness is something I have been passionate about for about 10 years from volunteering at hospitals to working with healthcare non-profits. But I would say my real journey into self love and wellness happened a few years ago while living in New York City.

-I felt like i didn’t know who I was.

-I was hiding my true personality and nature to fit in.

-I lost the sense of my true self and my purpose in life.

-I felt I couldn’t express my true emotions without making others feel good and people pleasing

-I played small, I put myself in a box to make others comfortable.

-I felt I always needed to give give and give and didn’t need to receive.

-I didn’t have the confidence to speak my truth due to others judging me.

-I didn’t feel it was safe to feel and release any emotions so I suppressed it all.

Due to these stuck emotions within me, I developed illnesses that weren’t minor at a young age and anxiety was re introduced into my life.

I decided to take some action about it by attending meditation classes, practicing holistic remedies, buying some self help books, reading whatever I saw positive on social media but that still didn’t help me feel any different since I wasn’t consistent nor had the support from anyone.

Once I couldn’t handle my fears, anxiety and physical ailments, I finally took real action and enrolled into a health and wellness program and an energy healing program and thats where my life turned around.

I didn’t realize I was looking for a connection to myself, my inner child and to allow myself to have a connection with my higher myself — I never thought was possible.

I didn’t realize at the time what I was looking for was a community that understood me, that support system, that accountability.
