Hi! I’m Lori.
I’m an author. My books are for women. My passion is to help women thrive and not struggle. I’ve learned that when women aren’t thriving it’s because their true nature has been neglected.
When you hide who you truly are, life is not fun. But it’s usually far worse than that. Life becomes devaluing, depressing and sometimes dangerous when you aren’t true to yourself.
The good news is, a delightful life emerges when you express and love your true self. So invite your true nature back into your day-to-day life.
Read my books for guidance. They will show you how to be true to yourself. Think of them as a guiding light on your journey to a delightful life.
My Personal Story
Something more.
I always sensed there was something more for me. But until I hit bottom I was complacent to live just as I was.
In 1997 I lived in a historic Philadelphia suburban home with my husband and our two babies. What I thought was a dream turned into a nightmare the day my marriage ended.
I thought I was unlovable and something was wrong with me. Nothing I valued seemed to matter and I didn’t value myself. I ached for something more though I didn’t know what it was or how to get it.
The trauma from the abuse of my childhood and early adulthood came back full force and I fell into despair, depression, and deep grief. I could barely function.
When I decided to allow myself to get angry and give voice to a lifetime of denied truth, everything changed. Everything. Something more emerged.
Freedom.
For the first time in my life I experienced freedom to live life on my own terms. I began to trust and value myself. When my primary relationship – the one with myself – transformed, the most amazing things started happening. My relationships with everyone else transformed too. I started to nurture only relationships that were mutually honorable and fulfilling – and if they weren’t, they ended.
What started as a desperate attempt at survival became a journey of personal discovery. I dove deep into a well of wisdom accessible only through getting grounded in my body. I liberated the leader within me.
Powerless to empowered.
I became an international empowerment leader. Got a black belt in karate. I raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for those in need around the world, built a school in Uganda and saved lives. I earned an MS in Leadership, trained as a life coach with the best trainers and became a certified life coach through International Coach Federation. I was VP on 3 nonprofit boards that served international communities and Rotary International awarded me the prestigious honor of Service Above Self.
Then I burnt out. I was still trying to prove my worth by what I did rather than who I was. It was time to dive even deeper and transform subconscious beliefs, heal old traumas, clear karmic patterns and more.
Letting Go.
I let go of pushing, doing and efforting. Embodiment was key. I connected deeply to my inner truth and soul wisdom. I let my extraordinary intuitive self out of the closet. I embraced my mystical self. I took a year off and didn’t do anything unless it was fun. Spiritual concepts went from being intellectual ideas to becoming embodied truths – embodied truths that are practical, magical and enlightening. Today my life is abundant, fulfilling and free. I am the divine feminine rooted in the untamed wilderness within.
