Like you, I am a lot of things.
I am a speaker, mindset coach, writer, actress and the founder of the transformational wellness retreat: Happy Camp. I am a friend, a daughter, a wife, a sister and a soon-to-be mother. I am a Survivor, a healer and a wayshower.
My life has given me immense challenge and even greater beauty, and I feel imbued with a deep sense of purpose to leave this world better than I found it by helping liberate people from their suffering so that they can live the lives they truly dream of.
I was always attracted to the arts, and began dancing at a young age- later training in pre-professional ballet program. Unbeknownst to anyone at the time, I was sexually abused by my private ballet teacher for the first time when I was 12 years old, and it went on until I was 16 years old. After studying at some of the most prestigious schools in the world, including the Kirov Academy and Juilliard, I danced professionally with Peninsula Ballet Theater for one season before leaving the professional dance world and choosing to go to UCLA.
I became the captain of the UCLA dance team and a member of Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority, and graduated with a bachelor's degree in Sociology.
I held my trauma in tight and tried to keep smiling, achieving and looking perfect in the hopes that I could somehow redeem myself in my life. I felt like I had been ruined, like there was something inherently wrong with me and like what had happened was all my fault. I carried this deep sense of shame and guilt with me through college and into my twenties.
After college, I decided to pursue my dream of becoming an actress. I had a lot of success right away, and appeared on many TV shows including: New Girl, Modern Family, the Mindy Project, General Hospital, Hawaii 5-0 and the League. I realized my dream of working with so many of my idols including Alec Baldwin, Kelsey Grammer, Zoey Deschanel, Mindy Kaling, David Spade and Aidy Bryant. I felt successful for the first time in my life in 2017 when I became a series regular on a TV show, and something dark deep within me stirred.
When my niece was born, I began to feel my inner-child needing to heal. I was overcome by flashbacks from my trauma, and found it hard to function. I began therapy for the first time. I began to understand the ways in which my negative self-concept had profoundly affected my happiness and well-being, and I felt like I couldn't go on anymore as the version of me who was killing herself to be perfect, just so she could almost feel like enough.
As I began to heal, I also began to find my power. I came forward against my abuser to the police, and after a 4-year legal process that involved other victims, a mistrial and a scarring courtroom experience- our abuser was incarcerated.
He is currently serving a 20-year sentence for his crimes.
After he was put in prison, all I wanted was to get my happiness back. I hadn't been truly happy since I was 12-years-old, and I wanted the rest of my life to be a testament of power and joy- not a side-effect of trauma.
I began diving deep into spirituality, trauma healing and mindset coaching and began to understand that we truly have the ability to transform our reality by transforming our mind. As I began to do this work myself, I became happier, healthier and more beautiful, and life began to get better and better right before my eyes. As I learned to weed out the victim-mindset from my consciousness, I began to embody empowerment.
I then began studying quantum mechanics, neuroplasticity and manifestation and begun a journey of radically reprogramming my mind in order to bring what I wanted to me: love, financial freedom and deep lasting happiness.
As I learned to reprogram my mindset and elevate my frequency, I began to embody empowerment, love and joy.
It worked, and after 6-months of doing this work I met my soulmate, (my now husband!) and created a deeply fulfilling and financially abundant business helping people reconnect to their own inner sources of love power. My joy has only grown since the beginning of this journey, and I am hands-down the happiest I have ever been.
What makes this feeling even better?
Knowing I created it.
It is so deeply empowering to know that I can create the reality I want to live in- and now I have helped countless others do the same through Happy Camp, Beauty Life and speaking.
I love what I do. My goal is to help everyone I serve step into their highest potential so that they can realize their dreams too. I believe that life is a spiritual journey, where we are all given the opportunity to evolve into our most divine form and create the life we dream of. We just have to decide to embody the creator within and step fully into our power.
There is no limit to how good life can be, and it all comes back to how deeply we are willing to love ourselves.
We are all so much more than what has happened to us, and when we learn how to evolve past our pain, we unlock love, abundance and joy on the highest level. My life is a testament to the fact that with consciousness and self-love we can transform into our highest selves and unlock our dream destiny.
I can’t wait to unlock yours with you.
