I found myself constantly living in fear. I was craving affection, validation, love and understanding. I found myself constantly trying to navigate unpredictable mood swings and changing demands and constantly walking on eggshells. I tried harder and harder, giving and giving, until it felt like I had nothing left to give.

No matter what I tried to do, nothing was good enough. I lived through the exhausting cycle of feeling at fault, endlessly apologizing for wrongs not mine to own. I noticed toxic people everywhere in my life, at home, with a cycle of intimate partners, work, even family members. It was like I was a magnet, an emotional dumping ground for dysfunctional people.

My journey to recovery began the day I realized that waiting for others to change was an exercise in futility. I shifted my focus inward—embracing self-empathy, ceasing my attempts to alter an unchangeable reality. I prioritized my needs, transforming my approach to life. This personal evolution wasn't just about healing; it was about reclaiming my power and autonomy. Now, healed and whole, I am equipped to guide others through this transformative process.

Having reclaimed my life, I am driven to empower others to do the same. From the struggles of one person, an army of survivors has emerged—each person a testament to the possibility of recovery and renewal. I am here to guide you on your journey, to help you rediscover your strength and autonomy, and to support you in creating a life defined not by your past, but by your resilience and renewal.
