She was born in Ethiopia to Ethiopian and Eritrean parents. After her family moved to Washington DC when she was only 3 years old, her life as what she calls “Nerdy Black Immigrant Tomboy Buddhist Weirdo” would take her deep into herself in a yearning to find True Belonging.

At almost 50 years old and after surviving a three-time death sentence ushered by stage 3 and 4 cancer, she found her purpose and light being a meditation teacher, author and speaker.

She met with me over a zoom call to chat about her life, her book “You Belong” and her Ethiopian-Eritrean background as it relates to her journey.

You want to listen to her share her story and unpack what True belonging is, how we lost it and where we can find it.

This allows us to stay connected but it also exposes us to not-so-positive interactions with others. While misunderstandings and conflicts are unavoidable, the mistake we often make is assuming the unpleasant comments aimed at us are really about us.
