Before long, shoulder pads were a distant memory. I became the first in my family to attend university. I thrived in law school, passed the California bar, and became a lawyer. 

That was my life for 17 years: A respected career. A vibrant social life. A title my parents could brag about.

But something wasn’t right. 

In fact, under the shiny surface, I was sinking. Me estaba undiendo.

First it was panic attacks, depression, and insomnia. Those symptoms were easy to minimize, or mask with prescriptions.  

Then came troubling physical symptoms: Numbness in my legs that made it hard to walk. That was harder to ignore. My doctor diagnosed me with Multiple Sclerosis (MS), a chronic autoimmune disease.

My body used those symptoms to tell me I was on the wrong track in my life. But I had learned early on to ignore my inner voice. To keep hustling. To take every opportunity that came my way. To make my parents’ hard work worth it.

It took me 17 years before I stepped away from my law career. By that time, my MS symptoms were so bad that I couldn’t drive alone.

I expected to grieve when I stopped practicing law. Instead, I felt tremendous relief, a surprising sense of lightness, and mucha felicidad. Most surprising of all, my MS symptoms went away. 

When I started helping other Amigas step into a softer, easier, flowy-er life, I finally felt like my soul and my body were aligned.

I only wish I had figured it out sooner! Pero ni modo, asi es la vida!

There’s more to life than living out other people’s expectations. But deeply rooted beliefs can make it hard to change direction.

As a transformational life coach, I help mujeres dinámicas overcome limiting beliefs, find their soul’s purpose, and create the amazing lives they were meant to live.

Could that be you, Amiga?

Let’s make shit happen!

Then something surprising happened.
