Reading & Writing to Escape Anxiety

Since a young girl living in East New York, Brooklyn, I was filled with anxiety and uncertainty.  I found peace in reading books and creating my own worlds with short stories and  poetry.  I had dreams of someday becoming a published author. 

As I took on adulthood, the world of responsibilities drained my spirit and without notice, becoming an author was far away from the reality I was living.  With a consuming teaching career, family obligations and depression weighing me down, I finally found my way back to my dreams.  With therapy , a wellness coach and meditation, I found true self.  Now I'm living on purpose.  I'm published and teaching others how to write and meditate. 

I NEVER GAVE UP- AND NEITHER SHOULD YOU!
