My Self-Trust Revolution
Sep 24, 2025
Let it be. Let it unfold.
Those are the truest words to describe what life has taught me to master.
Most people seek stability — comfort in the tried and true.
My path, however, was never meant to follow a predictable line.
The First Lesson in Letting Go
My first experience of deep letting go came at age six, when my parents divorced.
I didn’t handle that loss well. To make sense of my father’s absence, I made up stories — telling classmates he’d been arrested for “throwing pins in the duck pond,” and telling my teacher that my mother had remarried (which led to an awkward parent–teacher conference).
The silver lining of those small fictions was that I was sent to lunch with the school psychologist, dear Mrs. Memling. Under her warm guidance, I began exploring my inner world — and found my first love: self‑inquiry.
The Academic and the Awakening
That early fascination led me to major in Psychology.
I excelled — graduating Phi Beta Kappa, magna cum laude, and accepted into a clinical psychology graduate program.
But in the spring of my senior year, as applications went out and acceptances came in, something unexpected happened: a dark night of the soul.
Out of that darkness came a profound knowing — that graduate school was not my path.
I couldn’t explain it to my family. I had no backup plan. I simply had to let it be and trust what would unfold.
The Curriculum of Transformation
That “dark night” pattern repeated many times throughout my life.
Each time, I was asked to release an attachment and step into the unknown. Eventually I realized I was enrolled in a divine curriculum — learning to navigate what I now call transformational dilemmas:
those moments when what we fear losing seems greater than what we might gain, when staying feels impossible yet moving forward feels terrifying.
Through each of these crucibles, I learned to find strength in surrender — and to trust life’s unfolding, even in chaos.
The Hardest Letting Go
Sometimes, I ignored the whisper to release.
Sometimes, I went kicking and screaming.
When the time came to leave my first marriage, I resisted fiercely — until life intervened.
Within weeks, my husband lost his job after an affair, and I found myself unemployed, in debt, and raising two preschoolers alone. It felt catastrophic — yet once the collapse was complete, fear fell away.
There was nothing left to hold onto. Only a choice remained:
spiral into powerlessness, or let myself be broken open.
I chose to let it unfold.
The Turning Point
The shift was so palpable that people around me noticed.
My mother, concerned by how calm I seemed, sent me to her therapist, who asked, half‑jokingly,
“Do you have a Swiss bank account we don’t know about? Because your optimism seems far‑fetched.”
I laughed out loud. No Swiss accounts — just a stubborn kind of faith I couldn’t explain.
I wasn’t delusional — I was anchored in faith.
Step by step, I rebuilt my life, emerging stronger, wiser, and unmistakably different.
Teaching “Let It Be” in Real Time
As others witnessed my transformation, they began asking for guidance.
I started mentoring one‑on‑one, and soon was invited to teach online classes in “Conscious Creation.”
Then, in 2000, another call to release arrived — this time directing me to stop teaching my courses, despite their success. Trusting intuition, I let go.
Within weeks, the universe laughed and said, “Watch this,” sending six new clients out of nowhere and a download for something I’d never even imagined.
That offering - the Prosperity Partnership Program - became my livelihood for over a decade.
Between 2002 and 2014, more than 40,000 people played The Choosing Prosperity Game, and countless others engaged in programs like:
- Soul‑Aligned Business
- Evolutionary Wealth
- Consciousness Catalysts
- True Essence Incubator
- True Self Alchemy
Each one emerged from listening, surrendering, and allowing life to unfold.
A New Chapter
In 2007, I again heard the message: Let go.
One month later, a former colleague — a man I hadn’t spoken with in twelve years — reached out. That call led to a reconnection, a courtship, and eventually a marriage.
In December 2008, I moved my family to Princeton, NJ, and Greg and I began our new life together.
The Call to Evolve Again
By 2014, another whisper arrived — to pause Choosing Prosperity.com and devote myself to the emerging sciences of neuroscience, traumatology, and mysticism.
So I waited — learning, deepening, integrating.
And now, in this era of volatility and uncertainty, the message is clear once more:
It’s time to begin again.
Time to let it unfold.
