I got some smarts, let me tell you about it
I am a qualified therapist and have extensive training, through a B.SC, in Psychology, with an emphasis in relational counselling, mediation and reconciliation. Oh and slipped in a music and gerontology degree somewhere in there. I spent years after that through my graduate work, diving deep into topics like conflict management, servant leadership, strategic communication and ethics.
I am also a certified life coach, a certified relationship educator and most recently became a grief recovery specialist. I have a genuine appreciation for gratitude work, meditation and breath-work, considering myself a life long student of self-centering practices.
Yes, I have been on dean’s lists for most of my student life. Except in high school, I didn’t do too well there, I was slightly distracted, meeting the love of my life. Cut me some slack. But I took off my rose colored glasses, put on some normal ones and achieving stellar SAT scores got me an international scholarship to study in the US. I wore my geek hat proudly for the next few years, winning a capstone award and an honors psychology merit. Learning has always been a good time for me.
And just in case you were wondering, I put my rose colored glasses on again and married that boy I met in high school, just eight years later. All’s well that starts well.
