She channeled her unrest into tireless research and curiosity to study and embrace her Japanese heritage. Today, our guest models the Ways of the Samurai Warrior with every story she tells and every move she makes. Without judgment and with a full heart, she lives the principles of honor, courage, rectitude, loyalty, honesty, self-control, and compassion while inspiring others to do the same.

Having endured and painstakingly continuing to recover from not one, but two auto collisions, Her resilience has been strongly tested. It is one thing to model the Ways of the Samurai Warrior in good times. It is another thing to do so while recovering. Her compassion to guide others through tough times is informed by her own journey to regain wellness against demanding odds.
