Through the experiences of loss and gain in life, JL wants to share her emotions and healing journey with the world so that they too may allow light to shine through their lives again.

The challenges in her life have brought her to meet some of the most wonderful people who have seen her through some of her darkest days. It is her calling to pay this goodwill forward.

Having learnt that time is a limited resource to all, she wants to live her life blooming and it is her desire to have her readers blooming alongside her and head towards a life of liberation from social norms and making each moment count. It is her aspiration to be a support to those healing and to comfort the wounded souls.
