I created the Self-Realization Foundation in 2008. It began as a dedication and labor of love in remembrance of my mother who was my best friend, mentor, and inspiration. After years of struggle, determination, hard work, and much sacrifice, while giving her all to her three kids, my mother began pursuing her own life-long dream of becoming an actress by working in local community theaters. She genuinely enjoyed the journey she was embarking on. Unfortunately, it was cut short due to a terminal breast cancer diagnosis that led to her premature death.

 

In order to move beyond the pain of losing my mother, I realized that I not only needed to find my own talents and aspirations, but I also wanted to be able to share them with others. This is why I am deeply passionate about this business. I know that life is filled with many difficulties for all of us and with the experience of having lifted my own self back up from a deep depression and a highly abusive and dysfunctional relationship; I now have the knowledge and expertise to assist other women with their own empowerment, no matter where they are in their lives.
