MY STORY

Picture
Since I was a little girl, I dreamed of falling in love with a prince who adored me. Instead, I found myself repeatedly falling into unhealthy relationships.  I chased after crumbs of attention from men, struggling with limiting beliefs (some I wasn't even aware of) that made me feel unworthy and incapable of having what I truly desired.  I used to jokingly say my "picker" was broken. 
In my late 40's, I was ready to give up. I had achieved a certain level of success with my art but I wasn't getting what I truly wanted in life and in love.  I rushed into relationships and kept settling for less that what I truly wanted. 
After almost two decades of sobriety, I picked up alcohol again so I could quell the deep grief, hopelessness and anxiety I felt.  The alcohol helped me continue to make poor choices in my love life.  After falling for a married man, I realized I was quite possibly fundamentally broken in the area of love.  I had become painfully aware that I had been repeating a LIFELONG PATTERN in my relationships.  But despite my awareness and efforts to do things differently, I kept choosing and attracting emotionally unavailable men over and over!
In the beginning of 2024, I made a pivotal and life changing DECISION!  I became willing to do WHATEVER it took to CHANGE.  I asked God to heal my SOUL, even if that meant being single FOREVER.

I devoted my life to becoming the best version of myself.  I believed I needed AT LEAST A YEAR of intentional singleness.  More than I wanted to find a partner, (which I wanted really badly), I wanted to stop the ache in my soul, the longing, the craving and the incessant feeling that I was not good enough.  
So, I severed all romantic ties, started working with a mentor, sought support from people who had walked this path before me, surrounded myself with people on the same path as me and focused on God's healing once and for all.  
I was determined to become the confident woman of God I had dreamed of becoming - a woman who would BE in a Godly marriage.  The result?  2024 became the best and most transformative year of my life.  
At first, I was terrified of being single - especially in my late 40's.  You see, I have never been married and have no children.  This fact became more difficult to admit with each passing year. 
Choosing to trust that a year of singleness felt like the ultimate SURRENDER.  At first, it felt unsettling and quite disorienting.  So many fears popped up.  My addiction to OUTSOURCE love, attention, approval and validation was trying so hard to stay alive.  I kept thinking things like, "What if I am getting too old to find love?"  "What if there are no men left that will want an old washed up woman like me?"  "Who would choose a woman with such a past?"  "What man would want a woman in her late 40's with all these new wrinkles and eyes don't work anymore without reading glasses?" 
But deep down, I knew this season of singleness was necessary. I had to face my myself, my fears, my insecurity, my lack of self-worth and all the pervasive limiting beliefs that had driven me to repeatedly abandon myself, abandon God and get into unfulfilling and misaligned relationships over and over and over.

My decision to focus on this single season was tested.  It was as though God was giving me an opportunity to prove to myself just how serious and dedicated I was to this new journey.​
Ex-boyfriends resurfaced, and new POTENTIAL (emotionally unavailable and avoidant ) partners entered my life.  But this time, armed with my identity in Christ, new tools, a new awareness and a strong support system, I was finally able to stand my ground. I was no longer willing to settle or prioritize short-term pleasure over long-term fulfillment. I had developed a CLEAR VISION of what I wanted and needed in both a relationship and in life and I was not going to let anything take me off that path.
For the first time in my adult life, I was able to stay focused and committed. It was during this powerful and transformative season of singleness that I finally attained personal wholeness, purpose, happiness, inner peace and contentment within myself.  My heart and soul reconnected with my first love - Jesus. 
​Soon after that, EVERYTHING started to shift.  It felt as though life itself was working on my behalf as I focused on developing a personal relationship with God and cultivating the best relationship with myself I have ever experienced. While not every day was perfect, my inner world kept getting exponentially better.  I was steadily making progress, taking one small step at a time as I moved forward, toward my vision to run a successful art business & mentorship practice, support women in knowing their worth in Christ and build a foundation for a Godly marriage that glorifies God. 
My career path shifted organically, as I took steps to pivot slowly from solely being a prolific professional artist for the past 15 years to align more closely with my highest purpose as a mentor for women AND an artist.  
This was when synchronicities started to unfold around me, as I pressed more and more into the Word and Jesus everyday.  I kept running into and meeting people who resonated with my dreams and goals.  Little by little, I began showing up in life as my fullest self—pushing past fears, able to take FULL responsibility for my life and choices, all the while maintaining a balanced lifestyle that nourished my mental, spiritual, and physical well-being.
Today, my life exceeds anything I ever thought possible. I wake up each morning in Hawaii, surrounded by the ocean on one side and the majestic Ko'olau Mountains on the other.  Each day, I get to do the work I love - creating art inspired by the Word and mentoring women, helping them KNOW who they are in Christ and witnessing their powerful transformations.
I specialize in helping people heal their relationships - the one they have with themself, the one they have with God, and the ones they create with others - including but not limited to family, friends, colleagues, employees, employers and romantic partners.  
Relationships are so important.  To me, they are the foundation of emotional well-being and hold the key to unlocking peace on earth and fulfillment in all areas of life.  
When you work with me, we’ll be uncovering the root causes of your limiting thoughts and behaviors that are thwarting your ability to experience the most potent life and deep love imaginable for you.  By understanding your own personal patterns and blocks, you’ll finally break free from what attracts and creates unhealthy situations.  You will become someone that is fully empowered and able to co-create positive relationships and experiences, freed from self-sabotage, unhealed wounds, and limiting beliefs - for good. 

IS THIS YOU? ​

Picture
  • You chase after love, only to end up feeling unfulfilled and disconnected, wondering why the relationship doesn’t bring you the happiness you desire.
  • You seek validation, approval, and love from others, yet struggle to find it within yourself, leaving you feeling incomplete and uncertain.
  • Despite being an intelligent and driven woman, you find yourself stuck in a cycle of choosing partners who are emotionally unavailable or unable to meet your needs, leading to feelings of low self-esteem and dissatisfaction.
  • You often don’t feel "enough"—you’re self-critical, tend to put others’ needs before your own, and sometimes feel as though you must change who you are to please those around you.
  • You experience anxiety when a partner pulls away or doesn’t text right away, prompting you to chase after them or work harder for their attention, hoping they will eventually choose you and recognize your worth.
  • You over-attach quickly to new partners, ignoring red flags and giving men who haven’t earned it your full attention. You may place them on a pedestal as "THE ONE" without taking the time to assess whether you’re truly compatible or if they can provide the emotional support and stability you need.
