“Part human and part ocean. A woman who must transform, a woman and a thunderstorm.”

I forgive so I can live a gift I give myself, first.

As one thing ends, another begins and I learn oh, I learn change is my constant friend.

I told her she was magic I said it and it was no lie.

Waiting is wasting.

Breathe. Dream. Grow. Your soul knows true hearts must be bold.

Be still. There are things worth listening for.

Thankful for the rose grateful for its thorns these lessons bloom like weeds from them I am reborn.

When my world grows dark I remember: Every light begins with a spark.

I am a island – I am an island so large that though I live here, I know it not.

The moment I am sure that I know is also the moment I cease to grow.

I beg my heart to ask- why not me? A woman and a leader. A writer and a healer.

Let the weight fall all there is to do is be here at all.

I wonder how deep true love can go when you water it daily and let it grow.

My desire for connection is stronger than my desire for perfection.

My heart beats for me, always has, but it waits for you.

The present is a present. Do you open it – or just wish it locked different?

What makes me most happy is connecting with others. I love meeting new people, being social, and engaging in empowering discussions.

My mother gave me this book called Feature Films at Used Car Prices by a guy named Rick Schmidt. I gotta credit the guy, cuz he gave me the most practical advice. It empowers you.

Nonviolence will empower and equip us to bring generations to the table and fuse our knowledge, gifts, and zeal together.

I let go of childhood fears. I am a secure, empowered human being.

When you fully accept the dimples on your thighs and the tiger stripes that radiate from the centre of yours chest, it becomes an empowering experience.

You will be the ocean. Strong enough to tighten the sails and safe enough to jump ship for.

I have always felt strongly about empowering women. I’m living proof that, with confidence and by believing in yourself, you can accomplish any goal.

Some men think that if you’re empowered and sure of yourself then you’re a man-hater, but it’s like, ‘No, I’m just the same as you are, but maybe just a tiny bit more confident.’
