Guided by optimism, determination, and desire for a deeper connection to herself and others, Shadowed Soul is a tapestry of human experience and soul-crafting frontiers, woven with intense moments of physical and spiritual healing. Laced with valuable nuggets and travel hacks for the solo traveler, the lessons are divided by years and over continents.

This is an adventurous story of adversity, persistence, and divine intervention that will encourage and empower you to challenge your limits, beliefs, and barriers. You'll leave these stories with a new understanding about yourself that aids in your expansion. Ready? Let's go!
