My teacher once told me that life is like a book - it’s boring without the ups and downs. If that’s true, my life has been a bestseller, packed with more plot twists than a soap opera! 😄

After quite a few chapters of high highs and low lows, I’ve stopped chasing the peaks of happiness to avoid the valleys of sadness. These days, the focus has shifted entirely toward inner peace.

I’m currently a full-time student in the art of mindfulness and attaining higher emotional intelligence. It turns out that practicing self-love and self-care is a much deeper challenge than any of my previous careers, and I’m still very much a work-in-progress! I’ve learned to appreciate the calm moments and the simple, honest stories that come with a life well-lived.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I rented a manual car alone - even though I hadn’t driven one in over ten years - and drove along South Africa’s Garden Route to visit a national park. I cried when I saw zebras crossing in front of my car; it was a dream come true.
