Why I Became a Certified Spiritual Coach

 Hey friend,


If you’re reading this, it’s not by accident. I truly believe God places the right people in our path at the right time. I want to take a moment to share with you why I chose to become a certified spiritual and master life coach, and how my greatest challenges have become my greatest gifts.


I was born with facial paralysis and diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at just one year old. Later in life, I lost my eyesight completely and became bedbound. Life hasn’t been easy, and I won’t pretend that it has. But every tear, every moment of pain, every feeling of rejection, fear, anxiety, or isolation, it all became sacred ground for transformation.


What once felt like a burden has become a blessing. You see, I surrendered my disabilities to God. I cried out, questioned, and wrestled with my purpose. And in that place of surrender, I found clarity, strength, and peace. It’s in surrender that I discovered how to use my pain for purpose.


God didn’t remove my challenges, but He gave me a new lens, an inner one, to see through. He filled me with empathy, compassion, and a deep love for others who are hurting. Because I’ve been there. I know what it feels like to wonder if you belong. I understand the pain of being judged or misunderstood. That’s why when you sit with me, you’re not getting someone who’s going to throw clichés at you. You’re getting someone who walks beside you, not ahead of you. There’s no guilt, no shame, and no condemnation here—only love, support, and truth.


One of my favorite scriptures is Romans 5:3-4:

“We also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.”

That verse speaks directly to my journey. My suffering produced perseverance. My perseverance shaped my character. And now, I get to offer hope.


Another verse that has carried me through is Proverbs 3:5-6:

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.”

I didn’t understand my path at first, but when I submitted to God, He revealed a beautiful calling, one where I get to walk alongside others and remind them of their worth, their power, and their divine identity.


So why did I become a life coach? Because I believe in healing. I believe in transformation. And I believe that no matter what your story looks like, God isn’t done with you yet.


If you’re someone who feels stuck, rejected, anxious, or unsure of your path, I want to invite you to connect with me. Let’s walk this journey together. You don’t have to do it alone.

🍋 From Lemons to Lemonade🍋

  Life is full of challenges—moments that feel like bitter lemons handed to us, leaving us questioning and sometimes feeling defeated. Yet, these moments also carry the potential for transformation, a chance to turn life's lemons into lemonade. The secret to this transformation lies in the tools we employ: prayer, mind renewal through God's Word, and adopting an eternal mindset that looks beyond the temporary struggles of the physical world. Prayer is a powerful tool that shifts our focus from the immediate problem to the One who holds all solutions. In the Torah, we see this beautifully demonstrated in the story of Joseph (Genesis 37-50). Sold into slavery by his own brothers, falsely accused, and imprisoned, Joseph had every reason to become bitter. Instead, he turned to God in prayer and faith, trusting that his circumstances were part of a greater divine plan. His story teaches us that when we align our minds with God's purpose and adopt a mindset of eternity, we gain t...

💟Who am I? Daring to Embark the Journey of Self Discovery

  Who Am I? Daring to Embark on the Journey of Self-Discovery In every human heart, there exists a deep, unshakable yearning to understand the essence of who we are. "Who am I?" is a question that echoes through our souls, driving us to seek meaning and purpose in our lives. Yet, many of us hesitate to embark on this profound journey of self-discovery, fearing the unknown or doubting our worth. But daring to ask this question and seeking the answers is the first step toward a life of fulfillment, peace, and divine alignment. In the Bible, we find numerous examples of individuals who embarked on this sacred journey. One of the most poignant examples is that of Moses. Born a Hebrew, raised as an Egyptian prince, Moses struggled with his identity. It wasn’t until he encountered God in the burning bush that he began to truly understand who he was and what he was called to do (Exodus 3). Moses’ journey reminds us that our true identity is often discovered when we encounter the...
