My Personal Journey
I’ve hit rock bottom, and I’m not afraid to say it. By 18, I was addicted to pot, had a child, and dropped out of three high schools across two countries. People saw me as a failure—including my parents and a lawyer neighbor who had been my mentor, but cut ties with me when I became an unwed mother, she was ashamed to know me. But deep down, I fought back. I told myself it was temporary, that this wasn’t my end. At 20, I moved to Chicago with my boyfriend, thinking it would be a fresh start. It wasn’t. His addictions worsened; we now had every imaginable drug at our fingertips. That’s when I decided to end my addiction. I dropped the boyfriend and began taking it one day at a time. I was better, but still lost. I was broke, struggling, and humiliated when my daughter’s teacher gave her a winter coat because we couldn’t afford one. That sting of shame hit deep—people pitied me, and that was my wake-up call. I went back to school, studied film and TV production. By 26, I had turned my life around, even winning an Emmy. But success without the right mindset was fleeting, and I had to face the fact that external achievements couldn’t fill the void.
A few years later, I moved to Manhattan to be with a man I believed was my best friend, my life partner. In those early years, I loved living in the city, immersing myself in a community outreach job with Columbia University, where I felt deeply connected to the city's people and neighborhoods. Then, I got pregnant and quit my job just days before giving birth. For 15 years, I gave everything to him, to my family. We built what looked like the perfect life—friends envied our closeness, how we were always together, always beautiful. But it was all a lie. When his betrayal came to light, it wasn’t just heartbreak—it was annihilation. I had fought so hard to be there, to create a life our child deserved, surrounded by love and stability. I had clawed my way out of addiction, poverty, toxic relationships. I thought I was resilient, unbreakable. But with one ruthless act, he showed me I was disposable. Through his actions, he let me know that I was no one to him. The shame of that revelation, the realization that I had been nothing but a means to an end, froze me to the core. How could I have been so blind? I couldn’t let go. I clung to the fantasy of our beautiful family, and even as it crumbled around me, I dedicated yet a few more years to him.
"The difference was, I was more focused on myself. I launched a podcast, inviting my partner to host, with big plans to turn it into a video series—my return to video production. I joined a group coaching program and got a job managing a dance school, where I was also a student, meeting fascinating people and working on projects across continents. For the first time, I felt it: it’s my turn. I was excited, full of momentum. It looked like I had salvaged my marriage while prioritizing myself. But then, just as things started to look up, another betrayal. I froze, panicked. But this time, the fear and confusion faded quicker. I didn’t let it break me—I sought help. That decision, which once felt like weakness, became my turning point. I dove into traditional therapy, hypnotherapy, transgenerational work, group coaching—everything I could."
Once life became clear as water, I knew what I wanted. I became a life coach--a dream come true!
