Writing my Memoir has been the most intense, yet cathartic, liberating and healing journey. It is not one of the important projects of my life, it is The MOST important project of my life. I laughed, I cried, I reflected, I counted my blessings, I am standing in the light of my own truth. Thank you to my dream team that made magic at the cover shoot.
