This is my story

I have been manifesting my life for years. I became a medical doctor, I worked full time at a hospital for 10 years without a specialty, I flew across the United States coast-to-coast in a small Cessna and later became a private pilot, I moved to the US and became a citizen, I met the love of my life, I became a mom after 5 unsuccessful pregnancies, I had a very successful career in the corporate world...

But not so long ago, I realized I was still feeling miserable. Despite all the wealth, and health, and "happiness"... I was not doing what I really wanted to do. Way into the fifth decade of my life, I was still not clear on my true identity. Not only I was still not fulfilled, I was struggling. I tried a lot of things. From therapy, to learning shiatsu, changing my diet, getting into Reiki and QiGong, and meditation and yoga and martial arts. And it seemed that the more I was trying to fix things, the stronger the past demons were throwing fire at me.

See, although I spent years saying that I had a perfect childhood, my childhood was far from perfect. Yes, my parents loved each other. Yes, I always had a roof above my head and a cozy bed to sleep into. Yes, I got to have a little brother born 8 years after me. But here's the other side of the coin: Sexually abused by a reputable grandfather between the ages of 4 and 9 years old, witnessing PTSD outbursts from my dad, and losing him abruptly at home one cold night of November 1976, leaving me and my mom and my young brother to figure out how to survive by ourselves, are some of the childhood experiences that were added to my portfolio of life experiences.

A few years ago, I decided it was enough. I had to do something about these demons or dragons or whatever you want to call the flashbacks. A big motivator was my son. How can I be the role model of mom for him if I'm struggling in silence? How can I be my best self and enjoy time with family and friends if I'm constantly gauging my place in the world. How can I take care of myself in a way that will enable me to be present for him (and healthy) for as long as I can on this planet? Also I knew I wanted to continue helping people but it wasn't truly possible until I had found a way for myself first.

I finally found a path to processing the trauma, overcoming it, and finding myself on the other side of the tunnel, with a deep sense of never-before-experienced FREEDOM. Although it took me literally decades to find that path, that transformation happened much faster than I would ever have imagined.

And that's why, today, I am Life Transformation Sherpa. To those who are stuck in a tunnel, who are fighting demons, and who had enough - I am here with a guiding hand. Because not only I know it's possible to change your past, but it's also less painful and can happen much faster than you may think.

The reason I wanted to share my story with you is because I want you to know me and why I'm here. And I want you to know that I can help you, too.
