What is your mission?
My mission is to empower individuals to embrace their authenticity, rediscover their worth, and embark on a journey of self-healing. Through my book Diary of Clichés, I aim to create a relatable, humorous, and thought-provoking narrative that inspires readers to navigate the complexities of life, love, and personal growth with intention and self-compassion.
By sharing my own experiences with heartbreak, boundaries, and the sometimes-painful process of self-discovery, Diary of Clichés invites readers to reflect on their own journeys in a safe, approachable way. It’s not just a book about overcoming struggles—it’s a guide to finding the humor, resilience, and strength within ourselves, even in the face of life’s toughest challenges.
Through this work, I hope to make a dent in the realm of mental health and healing by breaking down the stigma surrounding emotional vulnerability and encouraging open conversations about our shared human experiences. My goal is to remind people that growth is not linear, healing is deeply personal, and life’s clichés—those universal truths—are there to guide us, not hold us back. By sparking self-awareness and fostering connection, Diary of Clichés is my way of contributing to a world where mental health is prioritized and healing is seen as an act of courage and self-love.
Diary of Clichés is an integral piece of my mission. It encapsulates the themes of self-discovery, authenticity, and growth in a way that feels deeply personal yet universally relatable. At its heart, this book is about navigating life’s complexities—love, heartbreak, identity, and personal boundaries—while embracing the messy, imperfect beauty of it all. It is a reflection of my own experiences, lessons, and failures, but more importantly, it is a reminder that every cliché carries a kernel of truth waiting to be rediscovered.
This book stands as a humorous and authentic exploration of the human condition. I wanted to create something that not only entertains but also empowers readers to rethink the narratives they’ve inherited. We often dismiss clichés as tired or uninspired, but what if they hold deeper meaning when viewed through the lens of our own lives? That’s the journey I hope to take readers on: a journey of unpacking, reimagining, and reclaiming those well-worn phrases to create something uniquely their own.
Diary of Clichés is also about dating with intention, setting boundaries, and showing up as your authentic self in relationships. It stems from my personal experiences, including heartbreaks, flings, and the moments of clarity that emerged from them. Each chapter captures the rawness of navigating love and loss, while also offering insights into how these experiences shape who we are. By weaving humor into the narrative, I aim to make the process of self-reflection feel lighter, approachable, and even joyful, because growth doesn’t always have to be steeped in solemnity—it can be laced with laughter too.
The book’s humor serves as a way to connect with readers, reminding them that they’re not alone in their missteps, awkward encounters, or moments of doubt. At the same time, it challenges them to ask themselves the hard questions: What do I truly want? Where have I been settling? How can I honor my own needs without fear of rejection or judgment? These questions lie at the core of Diary of Clichés, inviting readers to peel back the layers of societal expectations and step into their own truth.
Above all, this book is a celebration of growth. It’s about turning pain into purpose, heartbreak into empowerment, and clichés into personal revelations. It’s about learning to laugh at life’s absurdities while still taking your journey seriously. Through Diary of Clichés, I hope to inspire readers to show up for themselves with courage, self-compassion, and a willingness to embrace the messy beauty of being human. Because in the end, life is one big cliché—and that’s what makes it extraordinary.
My mission is to explore, heal, and inspire through the power of storytelling, spirituality, and authentic connection. At its core, this mission stems from my own journey—a winding path marked by profound highs and devastating lows, each moment shaping my perspective and deepening my understanding of life’s intricate beauty. It is through this lens that I hope to contribute something meaningful to the world, not by offering solutions or answers, but by extending the courage to ask the right questions, embrace vulnerability, and walk the uncharted roads of self-discovery.
Storytelling is my foundation. Stories have the power to bridge worlds, uncover truths, and create shared spaces where humanity feels less fragmented. In my writing, I often reflect on personal themes—past traumas, spiritual revelations, and even the pain of broken relationships—not to dwell on sorrow but to show how even the most challenging chapters can lead to empowerment. Stories like Weekends with Loretta and Finding Noir stem from the depth of my own experiences but also serve as mirrors for others to see themselves. My work invites readers to peel back the layers of societal expectations and step into their authentic selves, no matter how unconventional or raw that may feel.
But storytelling is only part of the mission. The second pillar is healing. My journey has taught me that healing is not linear; it is messy, painful, and deeply personal. It requires courage to sit with discomfort and compassion to forgive—yourself and others. I’ve come to see healing not as an endpoint but as a lifelong practice. Through my books, such as those focusing on essences and rituals, I aim to share tools that nurture this process. Whether it’s a chakra-aligned essential oil blend or a heartfelt ritual, these practices remind us that healing begins when we reconnect with our inner selves and honor our own journeys.
Spirituality weaves through everything I do. It is the light that guides me, especially when the path feels dark. My spiritual connection with Noir, which inspired Finding Noir, reshaped my understanding of love, purpose, and the soul’s journey. It taught me that spirituality is not just about lofty ideals but about grounding those ideals in the real world—about living with intention, holding space for others, and being unafraid to face one’s shadow. My work reflects this by offering readers both inspiration and practical guidance to walk their own spiritual paths.
Finally, there is the importance of authentic connection. In a world that often feels disconnected and performative, I believe in the power of honesty and vulnerability to bring people closer. Whether through the characters in my books, the stories I tell, or the rituals I craft, I strive to create moments of resonance—moments where someone feels truly seen. I want people to know they are not alone in their struggles, that their imperfections are what make them human and beautiful.
Ultimately, my mission is not just about my own journey but about holding space for others to embark on theirs. I want to inspire people to ask: Who am I, beneath the layers of expectation? What lights me up? What wounds am I ready to heal? By exploring these questions, we become not just storytellers but creators of our own lives. Through my work, I hope to be a guide, a companion, and a spark—helping others find their way to themselves. In doing so, I believe we can collectively create a world that feels more compassionate, vibrant, and whole.
My mission is to explore, heal, and inspire through the power of storytelling, spirituality, and authentic connection. I aim to create meaningful works that encourage self-discovery, foster resilience, and celebrate the beauty of transformation. Whether through books, rituals, or shared experiences, I hope to guide others on their journeys toward authenticity, empowerment, and inner harmony, while staying true to my own.
