Books I recommend
These four books hold the kind of wisdom that permanently shifts how you see yourself, others, and life. The Four Agreements teaches the code of personal freedom, Surrounded by Idiots helps you understand human behavior, The Untethered Soul opens the door to inner peace, and Tools of Titans gives you access to the habits of the world’s most successful minds. If you’re serious about elevating your mindset, mastering relationships, and unlocking your potential — start here. These are not just books; they’re blueprints for becoming who you’re meant to be..
I only recommend what has moved me, taught me, and changed the way I live and lead. Each of these reads carries timeless lessons that help you grow in awareness, wisdom, and discipline — the kind that stays with you long after the last page.
I hope much of what you find here already lives within you — because truth is never really new, only remembered. Still, reflection has a way of deepening what we think we know. This space is for those who seek to understand themselves beyond surface thinking — who long for clarity, calm, and conscious direction in a noisy world.
Here, I explore the quiet intersections between emotion, behavior, and spirit — the unseen forces shaping how we feel, act, and grow. When you begin to connect those dots, life starts to unfold with a sense of peace. You see patterns where there was once chaos, respond instead of react, and begin living with intention — no longer swayed by the world, but guided by your own awareness.
My background is in developmental psychology and sociology, but my truest education has come from a decade of observing human nature through children — watching how environment molds confidence, how guidance shapes identity, and how love, when given with structure, builds strength.
At heart, I’m a listener, a pattern-reader, a problem solver. A “red” with a touch of “yellow” (if you’ve read Surrounded by Idiots), and an empathetic ENFJ who sometimes drifts into the introspective world of an INFJ. I’m endlessly fascinated by what makes us human — and how awareness, once awakened, transforms everything.
If I were to write a bio for this blog, what would it be? How can you get to know who you’re reading from…
There are moments when life shifts beneath your feet—quietly, suddenly—and nothing is ever the same again. I’ve lived through many of those moments, waves of transformation that felt like the universe speaking in a language only the soul could hear. Spiritual challenges have a way of dismantling you piece by piece, yet in that unraveling, I often found myself looking upward, wondering if perhaps I was never meant to stay grounded at all. Maybe I was meant to drift among the constellations—searching for meaning in the silence between stars.
Through these invisible tides of change, something sacred began to awaken within me. Each collapse, each surrender, revealed another layer of truth—an invitation to dance with the unknown. Though the pain and confusion were real, so was the grace they carried. The lessons life whispered to me—through heartbreak, surrender, and solitude—became some of the brightest lights I know.
As a child, I believed my gift was in speaking—sharing stories, laughing loudly, filling space with energy. But as I grew, I learned that silence, too, has its own kind of eloquence. I realized I never longed for the spotlight; I longed for meaning. The superficial, the unnecessary—they never interested me. What did, was depth, speed, and the thrill of truth. The moments where my spirit matched the velocity of my dreams were the moments I felt most alive.
But before I could reach higher, I had to learn to trust myself. To accept the life I’d been given, and believe that even the hardest seasons were part of something divine. I’ve come to understand that my greatest fear has never been the world around me—it has been the vastness within. The power, the passion, the potential to create or destroy. That’s why I anchor myself in remembrance of God.
Because above the noise, above the skies and the shifting stars, there is a constant presence—one of infinite wisdom and mercy. He is the knower of every secret, the holder of every heart. And through Him, I’ve learned that even chaos has purpose.
So I continue—wandering, wondering, and writing. Navigating these cosmic tides with humility and awe, collecting fragments of truth to share along the way. Every experience, every revelation, feels like a message written in stardust—guiding me closer to peace, and to the person I was always meant to become.
How our childhood impacts us in ways we aren’t aware:
Every individual is affected by their past. Whether we recognize them or not. I make such a strong statement because I experiment on the things I speak about. Because I don’t want to have spoken confidently on something that wasn’t proven.
Anyway, this diagram represents your spirit. It is the essence/side of you that gets influenced/affected through the things you experience, or the projections you internalize from other people/external factors- which in short is your spirit.
How your spirit is influenced
This list can go on and on but all of these small things soon become a trigger. Which is why we have many people in our lives that act the way they do- either too strongly towards something small or too small for something big. Because that specific moment/scenario triggers a feeling/memory in them that was engraved in them through the first initial similar experiences/scenarios they felt in their youth. Which shapes their reactions to the next incoming similar experiences.
How you’ve went through the initial exp, shapes how you get through the next.

How Do We Change?
How do we control our thoughts?
How do we grow from them?
How can we even acknowledge what we don’t see?
The Story of the Two Wolves
A Cherokee elder once told his grandson:
"Inside each of us, there are two wolves in constant battle. One is filled with anger, envy, greed, and fear. The other embodies peace, love, kindness, and wisdom."
The grandson asked, "Which wolf wins?"
The elder replied, "The one you feed."
Our struggles are not about what happens to us but about which thoughts and emotions we choose to nurture. We may not control external events, but we control how we respond. This is the foundation of growth—recognizing that our emotions and reactions are choices.
A Personal Reflection
I used to react harshly to my own clumsiness—spilling coffee, dropping things, making messes. I would berate myself, feeling ashamed, because I was taught that a "proper woman" must always be careful. The judgment wasn’t just about the spill; it was about the fear of failing as a woman.
Then, one day, I saw it.
As I scolded myself over a spill, a quiet voice within me spoke: It’s okay to mess up sometimes. You don’t fail at being a woman just because you make a mess. You are alive, full of energy—why suppress that?
From that moment on, I shifted my mindset. Instead of seeing my energy and momentum as flaws, I embraced them as strengths. I learned to refine, not repress, my nature. My movements became more fluid because I gave myself the understanding and grace that I needed the first time I had spilled something. That is how you heal.
In consequence? I became more aware, and most importantly, I was no longer my own worst enemy.
Shifting Perception
"How do we change?"
Recognize that the source of our suffering is often within. By shifting our perception, we open the door to change.
"How do we control it?"
Understand what lies within our power—our thoughts, actions, and choices. Let go of what does not.
"How do we grow from it?"
See challenges as opportunities to practice patience, resilience, and wisdom.
"How do we acknowledge what we can’t see?"
Cultivate mindfulness. As Marcus Aurelius said, “You have power over your mind—not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.”
"How do we start to see it?"
Begin with self-reflection. Journaling, meditating, or simply pausing before reacting can illuminate what was once hidden.
Live by your principles. Hold yourself accountable. True confidence comes from integrity, from knowing you are living as your most honest self. When you do this, vulnerability becomes a strength, judgment loses its grip on you, and you navigate life with clarity, humility, and conviction.
This is a truth often overlooked, but those who seek understanding will find its value. The deeper you go, the more life unfolds in ways unseen by the naked eye.
Shall we continue?
