Her journey from trauma and grief into spiritual awakening informs her grounded approach to living a heart-led life rooted in presence, nature, and daily practice.
Key Takeaways:
Forgiveness is not moral superiority; it’s spiritual liberation—recognizing the divinity in others, even in their harm.
Leah’s grief journey after her husband’s death revealed the healing power of hearing your pain acknowledged, even if not by the person who caused it.
Meditation, particularly heart-centered and rooted in love, transforms the nervous system and can be a daily anchor.
For those with trauma, meditation doesn’t have to start in silence—nature walks, music, and guided practices are gentle entry points.
Aligning with the sacred rhythm of life includes listening to your body, following seasonal cues, and surrendering control to the divine.
