I live an empowered life of joy, fulfillment, and security after
surviving complex long-term trauma.
But it hasn't always been this way...
Separated from my birthmother, I was adopted by unemotional 50-something parents, and from the start, I struggled with self-identity, emotional attachments, and low self-esteem. My teenage years were marked by anger, self-harm, and addiction. At 16, I faced the heart-wrenching experience of a forced abortion, which deepened my self-destruction and led to promiscuity. My first marriage was filled with severe physical abuse, forcing me to flee for my life with my baby. My second marriage, emotionally draining and toxic, left me with two more children and overwhelming financial struggles.
After my second failed marriage, I suffered the devastating loss of my parents, plunging me further into despair. In a desperate attempt to find love a
nd happiness, I married a third time and moved to Germany with two of my children and my newborn. My manipulative ex refused to allow me to take my second child. Challenged by the new environment and situation, my new husband, the son of a narcissitic father, were both carrying the weight of our past traumas. The insurmountable cultural and language barriers and toxic in-laws in Germany pushed me into a severe depression, culminating in a suicide attempt.
At my lowest point, I cried out and began seeking a real connection with God, rediscovering a faith that began in my youth. Through this divine relationship and coaching I found healing and restoration.
I started coming home to myself.
I stopped viewing myself as damaged goods.
I started to see the power I held as a child of God.
I stopped forcing myself past my limits.
I started to embody my truth.
And I want to help you do the same.

a liberated, free, blessed overcomer.
A joyful life is your God-given birthright.
My mission is to help trauma overcomers who feel trapped in cycles of shame, fear, and self-sabotage break free from the chains of their past and discover wholeness, joy, and divine self-acceptance.

I understand the ways you’ve tried to push through your pain, escape your fears, and silence the hurtful messages of your inner critic. I honor your struggle, pain, and frustration. You deserve far more than the suffering you’ve endured.
