A Glimpse of My Wahine Rising Story
I decided at a young age I would NOT let the neglect of my alcoholic father & the abandonment of my mentally ill and homeless mother hold me back. I knew that the molestation, stress, & trauma of my early childhood was not my fault.
Instead, I have used my past as a roadmap of what I didn’t want to repeat or emulate.
I always knew that I could choose differently.
I tuned into the possibility of what my life could be, not what it was.

From my earliest childhood memories, I was totally connected to source energy and a power greater than myself. I called it my “energy.” It was a strong feeling of what's right & wrong in the world and what’s right & wrong for ME. I knew that my thoughts were my own and nobody could see them or change them.
I was in control of my thoughts, no matter what.
I grew up an intentional thinker.

I could listen and trust my gut. I have always been really good at choosing good people to surround myself with. I chose an incredible husband who I have loved & cherished for over 30 years. I became an extraordinarily present, loving, & reliable mom. Together Peter & I have raised two healthy, smart, beautiful, & driven girls. I chose the salty, laid back island life for my home. I chose the endless, breathtaking beauty of Kaua’i to revel in daily.
I am still growing and learning something new about myself every day.
I know one thing for sure: life happens FOR YOU not TO YOU.
I am always eager to see what I attract into my vortex of infinite potential next. Now in my fifties, I am learning how to surrender more. To be a spiritual seeker and continue to sync up with my purpose in life. To relax, to be kind to myself, to recognize my success, & ask for more help.
