Sometimes, life brings us to a halt in the most unexpected ways. One year ago, I made the decision to step away from everything I had built in Hawaii — the holistic business I poured my soul into, the community I loved, my farm and the dreams I had cultivated. I was broken, grappling with the deep wounds of narcissistic abuse. I had lost my sense of self, and with it, my purpose.
Coming back to Italy brought even more grief and shock than I could have imagined. I was forced to confront old wounds, navigate new ones, and strip away the layers of who I thought I was. But in the midst of that pain, a beautiful truth began to emerge: I was never lost, I had just forgotten how to truly see and love myself.
This year of pause became a journey of deep self-discovery — a path of relearning how to love, trust, and believe in myself again. It wasn’t easy, but I learned to sit with the discomfort, to honor my grief, and to be patient with the process of healing. Along the way, I found strength I never knew I had.
Today, I’m standing on the other side of that year, no longer the woman who felt lost, but one who has found her way back to her heart. Teaching this Heart Chakra workshop felt like a full circle moment — a reminder that we all have the power to heal, to rise, and to find our purpose again, no matter how many times we are broken.
Thank you to everyone who has held space for me on this journey. Your love and support gave me the strength to take one step at a time💕
I’m stepping back into my calling, with an open heart and a deeper understanding of what it means to truly love oneself.
If you are navigating your own journey of healing, know this: you are not alone, and your heart is your greatest guide.
