My Journey
"You can't become a specialist without having failed so many times and tasted the poison and healed from it !!!!"
I grew up in a hostile environment both in and outside my home. As a Palestinian in Jerusalem, reality was unsafe and unwelcoming. As a child living under occupation, as a human witnessing war and as a woman in a conservative society, it was too much. The trauma of victimhood took root in every cell of my being, fueled by years of non stop verbal abuse that distorted my self-image and eroded my boundaries. Living in a reality that seemed unbearable, I lost touch with my own identity, constantly living in the shadows of others.
Growing up amidst conflict and societal pressures, I was shaped by beliefs that limited my freedom in every way. Yet, within these constraints, my curiosity blossomed, prompting me to question who I truly was beyond the imposed beliefs. In 2012, I made the daring decision to leave my homeland, embarking on a journey back to myself.
The road to self-discovery was far from smooth. Yoga and meditation became my companions in 2015, yet the healing process was messy. I played various unhealthy roles, believing I was healed – a nice sweetie, a complainer, a savior, a perfectionist. These roles kept me imprisoned in the narratives I constructed in my mind, leaving me clueless about my boundaries, worth, and desires. Co-dependent relationships became my norm.
Then came the pandemic, forcing me to confront my shadows like never before. Trapped inside, I began the arduous task of reconstructing my self-image, establishing healthy boundaries, and healing the wounds that hindered my true essence. Yoga, meditation, coaching, and tantric practices became my allies in this transformative journey.
With unwavering consistency and a burning desire for self-love and safety, I slowly reconnected with myself. Years of trials, errors, and tears paved the way to my purpose, enabling me to live the life I had always dreamt of.
Fueled by the dream to share my breakthrough, I merged my diverse skills to empower authentic self-expression and holistic well-being. I draw from my accumulated wisdom to enhance life force energy and bring clarity to those I encounter.
I can't wait to meet you, to learn from you, and to humbly witness your journey of shining and growing. Together, let's embrace the beauty of authenticity and well-being. 🌟💖
