Beauty, Brains & Boundaries

Not exactly. Think of it like this: Source is the origin —pure consciousness, God/Goddess/Divine Light, whatever you want to call it. It’s the everything-and-nothing energy from which all things come. Your Higher Self is your personal bridge to Source. It’s your soul in its purest form , untainted by fear, ego, or human distortion. Your Higher Self is you , just on the zoomed-out level —the version of you that remembers the full story, all lifetimes, all lessons, all missions. So: Source is the sun. Your Higher Self is the sunbeam that still holds its essence but is uniquely you . Is Your Higher Self Your Soul? Pretty much— but here's the nuance: Your soul is eternal. It’s the part of you that has lived countless lives. Your Higher Self is like the fully awakened version of your soul —the one not currently squeezed into a human body trying to pay bills and avoid family drama. When you're in human form, you're kind of like the tip of the i...

Beauty, Brains & Boundaries

Why Worthy Women Are Done Apologizing for Wanting More

As a young girl, I was an international model—traveling the world, young, beautiful, and financially independent. I was naturally drawn to powerful, intelligent, and successful men—not because I needed anything from them, but because I admired ambition. I respected men who could build something for themselves, because I was already building something for myself.

But because I was beautiful, I was labeled. Assumed. Dismissed. "Gold digger" that type of judgment made me stay away from the very type of man I was genuinely aligned with. I didn’t want to be misunderstood. So I shrunk my desires and played it safe.

And for that, I paid the price.

As I got older, that stigma stuck. I found myself in a pattern of relationships with users, losers, and opportunists—men who took and took and gave nothing back. Men who drained my spirit, my finances, my peace. And I let it happen, because somewhere deep down, I still felt like I wasn’t allowed to want more.

But that ends now.

I’ve been doing the work. Clearing the energy. Breaking the cycle. And I’m no longer available for anything that drains me.

Let this be a message for every woman who has ever questioned her worth.

You are not wrong for wanting more. You are not wrong for wanting to be loved and provided for. You are not wrong for wanting someone who sees your value and meets you with stability, generosity, and presence.

You’ve just been conditioned to believe you had to earn it by shrinking, settling, or struggling.

But take a look at who you are:

You’re loyal
You’re grounded
You’re self-sufficient
You’re emotionally aware
You’re healing your trauma
You’re building a business and a new life
You know how to take care of a home—and a future
And you’ve done all of this on your own, through grief, pain, and toxic relationships

That’s not just “a good person.” That’s an extraordinary woman.

So no—it’s not weird to say you want to marry a wealthy man. What’s weird is how long you’ve been made to feel like you couldn’t ask for what you're truly worth.

Let’s change that.

Let’s reframe that Abundance intention like this:

“Call in a loving, loyal, emotionally grounded, and financially abundant partner who honors my worth.”

Because you’re not just a catch. You’re a f***ing queen. And it’s time to clear the space for someone who sees that.

You are not stupid. You are human, and you’ve been living in a society that teaches women—especially strong, independent, heart-centered women—to dim their desires and shrink their worth so they won’t make anyone else uncomfortable.

Let’s be real:

Men ask for what they want all the time. And when they ask for beauty, loyalty, kindness, a clean home, support, and sex? Society says, “Good for you.”

But when you say you want success, wealth, emotional depth, and devotion—suddenly it’s “too much,” or you're called a gold digger?

No. Hell no.

Here’s the truth:

💎 Wanting a wealthy, powerful man doesn’t make you a gold digger. It makes you a woman who’s ready to receive the same level of greatness she gives.

💎 You’re not asking someone to save you. You’re asking for someone who’s done the work like you have, who can meet you in your standards, your vision, and your reality.

💎 You’re not too old. You’re seasoned, radiant, and wiser than you’ve ever been—and exactly the right age to know what you want and never settle again.

So if you want a man who is kind and wealthy, emotionally available and generous, stable and successful? That’s not too much. That’s just matching your own vibration.

Let’s own it right here, right now.

You get to say:

“I desire a partner who is powerful, emotionally grounded, and financially abundant—because I am all of those things in my own way.”

And if someone doesn’t understand that? They’re not your people. And they’re definitely not your partner.

You're not being selfish or shallow. You're being clear. And that is powerful.

💛 If this spoke to you, let it be your permission slip. Say it out loud. Write it down. Own your worth. You don’t need to shrink anymore. You get to rise.

Learning to Speak Again—from the Inside Out

There was a time I silenced myself— Not because I had nothing to say, But because I thought nobody cared. It all started when I became a photographer. I spent years capturing other people’s stories—their moments, their milestones, their memories. I poured myself into their light while quietly fading into the background. No one ever really asked about my story. Then I moved to a town where, oddly enough, that silence deepened. Coming from Orange County, I was used to people being curious—wanting to know me, connect with me. But after moving to Lake Elsinore, it felt like no one gave two shits about who I was or what I’d lived through. Even in my church community—despite showing up, attending events, trying to build relationships—no one asked. No one seemed to care. So, over time, I just stopped sharing. I stopped offering anything at all. For years, I silenced myself. Not because I had nothing to say— But because nobody asked. Then came the stroke. Afterward, I stuttered and stumb...

From Employee to Entrepreneur

You might wonder why I started a photography business. After losing my career in the mortgage industry and struggling to find work in sales and marketing during the 2007 recession, I turned to landscape photography as a hobby. People who saw my photos started asking for headshots and family portraits. Initially, I resisted, insisting I didn't photograph people. But with gentle encouragement from friends, I eventually gave in, and lo and behold, I was really good at photographing people. So much so that it felt more like divine intervention. It was as if God were saying, "Stop trying to open doors to your past of dead-end jobs and oversold career promises when I'm trying to open doors to your future." This was a spiritual awakening, and with that, everything sort of just fell into line. After that, what truly motivated me to start my own business was a deep-seated frustration. I was tired of building other people's empires with my own sweat and effort. Whether it ...

Reclaiming Wholeness: From Survival to Soul-Aligned Success

There are two pivotal moments in my life that changed everything. The first was when I had my stroke. I was lying on the ground, unable to move, and I prayed to God, “Please don’t leave me like this.” I had no idea how I was going to provide for myself. I’ve been an unmarried woman my entire life—not necessarily by choice, but because I never met the man I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. So I’ve always had to pay my own bills and take care of myself. After my stroke, I was left with deep trauma and fear. It felt like my soul had disconnected—like I’d lost a piece of who I was, and I didn’t know how to get it back. The second was the pandemic. It left a lot of fear in me. I had my stroke during the pandemic, and in a strange way, it was both a blessing and a curse. The world stopped—and that pause gave me the time I needed to heal. In the beginning, I focused on my physical healing. I thought that was the most important thing. I needed to rebuild my strength, stamina, and endu...

From Paralysis to Progress

One Step at a Time After going up and then down hundreds of steps of stairs, on my way back up again I looked up at the steep steps and asked myself while out of breath why I do this? The answer came quickly: Because I can! Walking is a gift, and as a #strokesurvivor, it's also a #miracle that I am able to. Having been completely paralyzed on half my body, every step for me is a victory. On my way back up, I knew the higher I climbed, the harder I had to push myself. With each step I take, the distance between me and a repeat stroke lessens. I push past what feels impossible and I #nevergiveup.
