I was that woman who hid behind her sarong on the beach, never getting in the water. NO MORE!
A mother and a wife, striving to live her life to the fullest, maybe even making an impression on the world!
I have just found my true passion, I am meant to inspire others to love themselves just the way they are.
I’m a wife, mom of six and grandma of one. I have a mission to help women reconnect with who they really are.
