Growing up in a trauma-filled household, I was constantly walking on eggshells, never knowing what might trigger the next storm. My parents struggled financially, living off social security, which only deepened the strain on our lives. My father was lost in addiction and profoundly scarred from his own past, and his emotional, mental, and physical abuse made the home environment even more toxic. Meanwhile, my mother, battling multiple sclerosis and cancer, was consumed by her illness and unable to provide the support and protection my brothers and I needed. As a result, I pushed my own needs aside, hoping that achievements like getting straight A’s and excelling in gymnastics would finally earn me the love and attention I craved. Yet, these moments of validation were fleeting, never providing the deep emotional connection I was looking for.

Living under this constant cloud of fear and scarcity, I started to believe that this was all I deserved—that I was stuck in a cycle of unworthiness and victimhood. My parents couldn’t show up for me because they couldn’t even show up for themselves. The weight of my parents' struggles became my own. But deep down, there was a small spark of hope, a belief that there had to be more to life and that I could break free from this cycle.

I was determined to overcome my family's generational curses, so I committed myself to personal development, attending conferences, seeking out mentors, and committed to a path of continuous learning and growth. This journey was transformative, helping me unravel deep-seated patterns to create a new future. Now, as an author, podcast host, speaker, and entrepreneur deeply passionate about personal development, my mission is to support people in overcoming their past, reshaping their mindsets, and creating lives filled with happiness and freedom. Through my work, I strive to empower others and make a lasting impact, guiding them to rise above their struggles and reach their true potential.
