My Story

The Struggle of Self and Relationships

​

My story begins in a place of deep turmoil and toxic relationships—not just with others but, most critically, with myself. Growing up, I was surrounded by neglect and abuse. My mother, who had been married multiple times, allowed her third husband to subject me to severe physical violence and emotional manipulation. This environment constantly reinforced the belief that I was unwanted and inherently bad, leading me to internalise these messages as core truths about myself.

​

By the age of 8, I was already battling an eating disorder, and by 11, I had attempted suicide. The terror of my home life forced me into hiding, often finding solace in a secret spot behind the stairs with a book. My mother’s neglect left me caring for my younger siblings, navigating a chaotic world where safety was a rare and fleeting feeling. Diagnosed as a sociopath at 18 and again in my mid-20s, I felt destined to a life of solitude and internal chaos, convinced that my only safety was in being alone.

​

To numb the overwhelming pain, I spiraled into a life of addiction and crime. I chose toxic relationships with addicts, drug dealers, and men who inflicted emotional and physical harm, all of which mirrored my inner turmoil. My existence became a dangerous cycle, driven by drugs, violence, and crime, where survival meant disconnecting from my true self and embracing a life devoid of hope.

The Path to Self-Mastery

The turning point came during a period of intense loss and danger. As my life continued on a downward spiral, I saw the people around me—friends, boyfriends—being murdered, overdosing, or disappearing into witness protection. One particularly horrifying night, after a fight with my boyfriend led me to temporarily move into a hotel, our house was invaded. People were tied up, threatened with guns and chainsaws, and robbed. I narrowly escaped becoming another tragic story in a series of violent incidents that seemed endless. I knew then that if I didn’t change my path, I’d soon end up dead or in jail.

​

Around the same time, my biological father, who I had never met, reached out to me on Facebook after 27 years of silence. I had always been told—and believed—that he didn't want me. With everything around me falling apart, I decided to take a risk and meet him. This decision became a critical moment in my life. Spending a week with him, I saw that the narrative I had been told wasn’t the whole truth; he did want me, and he did love me. For the first time, I allowed myself to believe that maybe I wasn't entirely unlovable. This new realisation gave me the courage to start loving myself, to believe that there could be a way out of the darkness.

​

Determined to escape my past, I immersed myself in education and self-improvement. I began studying holistic health modalities, spiritual psychotherapy, hypnosis, energy medicine, psychology, and eventually earned a PhD in metaphysics. I discovered that sociopathy could be understood as a trauma response—a realisation that gave me hope. If my mind and behaviour were shaped by trauma, I could reshape them through healing and self-mastery.

​

I redirected my anger and frustration into fitness, specifically kickboxing, and moved to Costa Rica, where I knew no one and didn't speak the language. This new environment allowed me to dive deeper into my studies and work remotely as a relationship coach on the world's top platform, where I quickly rose to the top ranking. My unique perspective—viewing relationships through an objective, strategic lens—became my greatest asset. I developed effective strategies and methodologies to help others achieve their relationship goals without being ruled by their emotions.

A Life of Purpose and Freedom

Through my journey, I discovered that self-mastery means taking control of your narrative and designing your dream life. I learned to release societal expectations and embrace my uniqueness, marching to the beat of my own drum. Today, I live a life filled with peace, stability, and freedom—both financially and emotionally. My relationships with my family have improved, and I’ve set boundaries that align with my needs. I enjoy solitude, find fulfillment in my own company, and spend my days in the beautiful surroundings of Costa Rica, where I am finally at peace.

​

Professionally, I am recognized as a leading relationship expert, featured in prestigious publications like The New York Times, Oprah Magazine, and Cosmopolitan. I have built a career that aligns with my values, providing a sense of purpose and allowing me to help others achieve their relationship goals.
