My debut book: Unpack Your Personality.
Many women reach midlife exhausted. They’ve done it all—a successful career, marriage, family, friendships—so why does life still feel empty?
It’s not because you didn’t do enough, aren’t good enough, or don’t have enough. It’s because somewhere along the way, you lost yourself. The ego has been running the show, while your soul has been waiting for its turn—that’s where the emptiness begins.
Here’s what I know: real change doesn’t come from doing more—it comes from turning inward. From being honest about what you feel, what you’ve ignored, and what you truly need. When you reconnect with all parts of yourself—the strong, the messy, the hidden—you begin to feel whole again.
My books are here to guide you through that process. Not to tell you who to be, but to help you rediscover your true self—who you’ve always been.
So many insights about
my personality type
“I read this book and got so many insights about my personality type. Never I would have believed that a book like this could show me the way to move forward. It all makes so much more sense now. Thankful”

My award-winning travel career was everything I had once imagined—until it no longer was. When the tsunami struck, the life I had carefully built was swept away, leaving behind an unexpected stillness. In that space, I began listening—truly listening—to women travelers from around the world, and realized my story was not singular, but shared by hundreds of women who felt the same quiet disconnect.
Beneath the surface of our lives, so many of us carry unspoken fears, hidden longings, and dreams set aside. We ache for truth—for a life that feels as beautiful as it looks. Those unrelenting waves of change became a threshold, …guiding me beyond the known and into a deeper calling that would later take shape as Spiritual Personality Typing℠.
Unpack Your Personality emerged from that passage—shaped by a three-year mentorship with spiritual psychologist Dr. Nix and my own unfolding path. It is an invitation to return to yourself, to rediscover the quiet magic within, and to understand how you are meant to move through the world—wherever you may be, whether crossing oceans or finding your way home.
