My story

At around 45, life presented me with a range of implicated intersectionalities:  

​

• Experienced all the symptoms associated with hormonal shifts, caused by menopause

• Guilt and shame associated with not being near my ageing parents

• My daughter, an only child, becoming a teen and all the intricacies related to puberty

• A marriage of 20 years started to be tested by my inner turmoil

• A career, although satisfying, not soul enriching

​

Although my life was complicated and with significant stressors, my healing and integrating journey didn’t start at this juncture of my life, as I still believed I could do it ALL: parenting, a career, marriage and contribute as much as I could to the care of my parents.

​

My aha! moment came when I was no longer able to mask the physical symptoms manifesting from my unintegrated emotional charge, but what catapulted my desire to find an alternative way of living was when I became aware that I was projecting my emotional instability onto my husband and my daughter. 

​

This led me to the realization that I wanted the second part of my life to unfold differently. 

​

I wanted to feel better mentally, emotionally, and physically. 

 

I wanted to have a connected relationship to myself and my family. 

 

So, I embarked on a journey to reconnect with my inner wisdom, integrate my emotional trauma to be able to evolve (transform) and grow.
