I understand the unique challenges you're facing because I've walked this path myself. Like many of my clients, I spent my 20s and 30s building a successful career while navigating the complex journey of finding love. I heard the well-meaning but painful comments about my weight, my age, and my relationship status. I felt the pressure of cultural expectations and family hopes.

Being educated and independent was deeply instilled in me from an early age. I spent so much time building myself up professionally that when it came to relationships, I found myself looking for a male version of myself rather than someone who could truly complement me. In my 20s, I was focused on what looked good on paper—the right job, the right appearance—without truly understanding what made a healthy marriage.

Through my own inner work and transformation, I discovered that the key wasn't in changing who I was, but in releasing the beliefs and patterns that were keeping love at bay. I had to deeply reflect on what was actually best for me, not what would impress others or meet societal expectations.

By the time I met my husband, this inner work had paid off. We both knew exactly what we were looking for and were upfront about it from the beginning. Our clear, honest communication meant we were aligned from the start—there was no questioning of intentions or wondering where things were going.

By 36, I had met and married my husband, creating a partnership that honors both our individual growth and shared values.
