ABOUT JOURNEY IN BLOOM

Let's be honest, mental illness can be a lonely journey. I'm passionate about advocating mental health because I am a mental illness survivor.

 

I was diagnosed with a severe case of Bipolar in 2006. In the almost two decades of managing my illness, I have endured eight hospitalizations. I've experiences the ups, downs and confusion regarding this illness firsthand. I remember searching for something or someone to relate to in the early years of my journey and finding nothing. 

​

Through years of self-care, self-awareness and unwavering determination, I have now been episode free for eight years. Today, I am a single mother raising teenagers, an entrepreneur, and proof that healing is possible. 

​

My mission is to normalize mental illness, help those suffering to feel less alone and inspire those feeling broken to bloom. 

​

Just as the lotus pushes through mud and mire and blooms in beauty, you too can rise from this adversity and shine.

​

I encourage you to join me in the Journey in Bloom!
