༄ Why did my soul chose to be here?

What can I contribute to the world in this point of time? In a world in which fear causes more and more separation and confusion? That's the question I asked myself two years ago. During a deep meditation I saw myself being part of a circle of people: moving, singing, laughing. Then I knew. This was my soul purpose. My mind asked me if it made any sense. My heart told me it made more than sense. By sharing music, movement and sounds with you I invite you to take place in the circle. A circle in which we are not afraid to dream. A circle in which we dare to connect with ourselves and others. A circle in which we observe and release our thoughts and emotions. A circle in which we express who we are and what we are made of: Love & Light.

Some truths are confronting, but necessary.

I’ve been on both sides of pain.
I’ve been hurt. but I’ve also caused hurt, especially where it cuts the deepest: in relationships with my loved ones, and sometimes, yes, with my child.

That’s the most confronting thing of all when you’re faced with the mirror of your own unawareness or misjudgment, reflected back by someone you love unconditionally.
And still… it’s also the most powerful invitation to grow.
To say: I see it. I feel it. And I’m sorry.
Not to erase what happened. Not to make it all okay.
But to say:
I acknowledge the pain you went through because of my ignorance, my blindness, my wrong choices.
And I thank you for the courage to give that truth back to me.

Because in that moment of radical honesty, something shifts.
It invites us closer to ourselves and to one another.
It lays the foundation for real trust, for real love.

These days, my path is calling me deeper into these themes:
💔 Taking responsibility
🪞 Radical honesty
💧 True forgiveness
🔍 Uncomfortable self-inquiry

Not because they’re easy. But because they’re essential.
There’s a part of me that knows… this is the time to face it.
To grow. To evolve.
To move from guilt and protection into presence, love, and authenticity.
Not just for myself but for everyone I meet.

To be true to yourself
takes a big dose of courage.

Courage to face the patterns you once believed would protect you
from harm, from rejection, from being misunderstood.

It takes strength
to untangle from beliefs that kept you safe,
but small.

Vulnerability
to go to the seed of your fear, your anger
and feel it.
Until your hands blister from gripping what you never dared to feel.

Detachment
to sound your truth
raw, intuitive, and free from judgment.

This is the path of remembrance.
This is what it means to truly know thyself.

If you’re in the process of coming home to your truth
you’re not alone.
I see you. I feel you 👁️
And I honour you becoming
what you already were to begin with🫶🏽✨🪶

This journey began in 2022 with a desire to create spaces for men & women to meet themselves—
to feel safe in their bodies,
to express what lives inside,
to move through emotions and beyond them,
to remember who they truly are.
To remember their essence.
To reconnect with the divine.
And bring that connection into daily life.

Standing here now, today, at the point of welcoming 15 women, a sacred team, and a heart full of memories… I feel nothing but wonder.

Because while it feels like I’ve just arrived in this land Portugal — this portal of deep inner growth—
I also see how much has happened.
How much has shifted, dissolved, grown.
The hellos. The goodbyes. The constant evolution.

And yet, everything born from love remains.
Present. Alive. Deeply felt.

And for that—I’m so grateful.

If you feel called to these kind of spaces, stay close.
More is coming.

𝗪𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗻 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀.
Each of us carries unique talents, gifts—a unique voice.

Leadership that flows from 𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗼𝗱𝗶𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁 and 𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳-𝗮𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 is not here to overrule or dominate. Its essence is to be 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁, anchored in 𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳-𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲, open to growth, and in service to others.

When we remember who we truly are and understand why we’re here, we unlock our full potential. We stop fearing ourselves—and others. We become able to be silent and truly listen.

𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲｡ 𝗕𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁｡

𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘮𝘢𝘺 𝘐 𝘦𝘮𝘣𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘦—𝘧𝘶𝘭𝘭𝘺, 𝘩𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘭𝘺, 𝘯𝘰𝘸?

Spending time with yourself to explore these questions is not selfish.

The deeper we know ourselves, the more we give others the chance to know us—and to meet in truth.

This is how we connect. Create. Commune.
From love. From intelligence. From presence.

𝗟𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲, 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲.

This was one of the songs I was asked to sing during a heartfelt blessing ceremony on the beach last Sunday. A song by 𝘊𝘢𝘵 𝘉𝘶𝘳𝘯𝘴 I’d never heard before—but it touched me deeply.

A powerful reminder to follow our intuition, to live with intention, and to lead with love. To have the courage to express ourselves, to create space for authentic connection, and to celebrate life with meaning.

I was deeply moved by the loving bond between mother and daughter . Thank you for inviting me into your sacred circle ⭕️
Blessed be the new tribe member 🦁💫

Sometimes, life touches us deeply.
Memories—whether our own or inherited—resurface, asking to be seen.
It takes both courage and softness to embrace the parts of ourselves we’d rather forget.
To gently whisper to the mind:
𝗣𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝘆 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁.

𝘀𝗼 𝗜 𝗺𝗮𝘆 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗶𝗻 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆.

When we offer all that weighs us down to the altar of love,
we create space to breathe freely—
to express ourselves with a clear and present voice.

𝗜 𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗱.
For allowing us to witness your vulnerability.
For co-creating a sacred space and trusting us to walk alongside your journey.

I see you.

✨ Sacred sisterhood has been a powerful part of this journey. When we gather, we don’t just rise—we remember. We remember our wisdom, our softness, our fire. And in doing so, we create space for the divine masculine to step into its highest energy, too.

Dear woman, wherever you are in this moment - whether you are hiding or expanding, softening or standing firm, longing or letting go - you are not alone.

Across time, across cultures, across generations, we are bound by something unshakable.

We are that what we long and search for; 𝘞𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦. 𝘞𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘥🫶🏽

May we remember this, and may we remind each other.

In love

For a long time, I was being questioned. Where I belonged between cultures, between identities, between expectations.

I wasn’t searching for an answer—my surroundings were questioning me. People decided where I belonged based on my physical appearance, the languages I didn’t speak, the way I moved through the world. Assumptions were made before I could even define myself.

But the truth is, belonging was never something to find outside of me. It was something to remember within.

Belonging was never about fitting into one place—it was about standing fully in who I am. And that is enough.

Have you ever felt questioned about where you belong? Let’s reflect together ✨🫶🏽✨
