Discover My Journey of Passionate Learning
As a lifelong learner, I've had the privilege of exploring various fields, including psychology, clinical social work, and yoga. Through these experiences, I've come to understand that embracing my passions is a crucial part of living in wellness - not a luxury, like we're so often taught. Come with me, let's allow ourselves to acknowledge and pursue our passions, and find a sense of fulfillment and purpose.
​
Transforming Knowledge into Action
My passion is not only learning itself but also sharing what I've learned with others. This online space is a reflection of my commitment to transforming knowledge into actionable insights that can benefit those around me. Let my journey offer hope and discover how you can apply the lessons I've learned to your own life.
​
Find Peace and Comfort
As you navigate this website, I hope you'll find moments of peace and comfort. My goal is to create a welcoming space where we can grow together, and I'm excited to share my journey with you.
I'm a real person too.
I'm not a robot. I have a family, stress, and emotional baggage.
Mindfulness and Me: A Practical Guide for Living
"Every beautiful and wonderful thing happens in the present moment... Being in the now also gives you the power to make changes. You can plan and prepare all you want, but it takes being in the moment and deciding to actually do something different in order to make a change in your life. Mindfulness is a practice of empowerment. It all starts here.” (Pg. 10-11)
