Episode 27: Born from Flames: How Death and Motherhood Transformed Me

In this episode, I share the story that reshaped my life: becoming a mother in 2011 and losing my father in 2012. Life didn’t just turn upside down—it shattered and remade me in the fires of both M O T H E R H O O D and loss. This is my origin story.I dive deep into the raw truth of my father's death—how he left this world with rage, anger, and venom in his heart. His final words, though forgotten, left a brand on my soul, one that has guided me ever since. That venom, oddly enough, became my anti-venom. It saved me from a life of complacency, codependency, and mediocrity.In this episode, we explore:✨ How the wounds from my father’s anger became a path to healing and transformation.✨ The promise I made to myself: "I will not die with bitterness in my heart, and I will not pass this on to my children."✨ The invitation from ancestors, divine whispers, and inner guidance to walk this path of self-discovery.✨ Forgiveness as an ongoing practice, even when the person who hurt you isn’t here to hear it.✨ The tools and modalities I’ve learned over a decade—not to grow a business, but to become the best mother and partner I can be.This isn't just about grief or motherhood—it's about the deeper invitations life gives us to become. To break free from the patterns that no longer serve us. To embrace the full spectrum of love, presence, and purpose, even when things get hard.You’ll also hear how my business is evolving to reflect this journey, with a focus on stewardship, love without conditions, and embracing the chaos with grace.
