I grew up in Guyana as the first born grandchild in a household that made me feel like the center of the world. I was cherished, protected, and completely rooted in who I was. When the bullying started at school, it didn’t touch me — I knew what I was worth because I felt it every time I came home.

Then my grandmother passed, and I stayed in New York. And everything that had held me together was suddenly very far away.

Brooklyn was a different kind of hard. I was in every environment and present in none of them. I wanted to go back to Guyana — back to the version of myself that felt solid and real. I didn’t know yet that the need to return and the need to disappear were the same thing: the need to find my way back to myself.

Years later, during COVID, I finally did. Alone and quiet for the first time in a long time, I went inward. Buddhism had been a part of my life since childhood, and for much of my life I had been engaged in my own inner revolution — learning to look within, challenge my limitations, confront old patterns, and take responsibility for my growth. During COVID, that inner work became deeper and more intentional. I found a therapist who specialized in inner child healing, and the work we did together changed everything — my relationship with myself, with my family, and with what I believed I deserved.

I began to understand that transformation wasn't about becoming someone new. It was about returning to myself, strengthening my relationship with who I already was, and having the courage to live from that place.

Soul’n Bloom is my answer. 

I’ve worked in Human Resources for over 20 years, developing a deep understanding of people and the experiences that shape how we show up in the world. I bring that experience, along with my own personal transformation, into my coaching. 

The coaching work I had always loved most was pointing me somewhere. It took me a while to follow.
