For those of you who have been following my journey, you know the last few years have been dedicated to researching and writing my manuscript, Ignite Your Life's Purpose. This book is a labor of love, a guide rooted in the conviction that women stepping forward as compassionate, self-guided leaders can transform our world.
Right now, the manuscript is in the hands of several literary agents—a nerve-wracking but exciting phase that feels like waiting for the universe to align!
The News I Can Barely Believe
Today, I have news that has fundamentally changed my professional life and affirmed the

core message of this book in the most profound way possible.
I am utterly humbled and bursting with gratitude to announce that my manuscript, Ignite Your Life's Purpose, has received a Foreword written by His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama.
In the Foreword, His Holiness writes about the vital role of women as leaders, guided by their "strength, wisdom, and compassion," and the urgent need for a more understanding, peaceful, and caring world—a message that aligns perfectly with the book's mission.
Why This Matters
This is more than just an honor; it is a validation of the book's global importance and its potential to contribute to the current conversation on ethical, mindful leadership. Securing this endorsement before even securing an agent or a publishing deal is a testament to the powerful, resonant themes within the manuscript.
I know that this Foreword will not only inspire readers but also amplify the book's reach, allowing its message to touch lives around the globe.
What Happens Next?
Publishing can be a painfully slow process, but I will be sharing more details about the publication timeline and how you can pre-order the book as soon as possible! In the meantime, the search for the perfect literary agent continues, and I am energized by this incredible endorsement to find the right partner to bring this message to the world.
If you believe in the power of passion led purpose and compassion-driven leadership, please share this news widely! Join our Inner Circle Mailing list to be the first to know about the Book's progress.
