"With Duality, I grew into a much much bigger, better and stronger version of myself"

Dear Vishen,
 It has been nearly two years now that I had escaped an extremely toxic marriage together with my two children. Hard lockdown had made things at home unbearable and I was as broken as one could be. I did not have a clue about how to start a new life. I didn’t have a job (only a PhD, but the wrong skin colour to find a job as a foreigner in South Africa), I didn’t have money (my ex had taken care of that), I didn’t have any dreams for myself, and I had negated my own needs for so long that I was at a total loss as to what I wanted from life. Back then my only goal had been to escape, to survive, but what was supposed to come after that?

By “coincidence”, around that time of my life, Mindvalley Masterclasses started to pop up on my Facebook newsfeed and I started devouring them: your masterclass, Jeffrey Allen, Marisa Peer, John and Missy Butcher, Katherine Woodward Thomas… You cannot imagine how grateful I felt to receive such magnificent guidance and inspiration FOR FREE and whenever I had time for it (which was mostly at night when my children were asleep, but my mind would not find any rest). 

Slowly, slowly, I started to come back to life, to feel alive again, to think about my true purpose on this planet at this time and how my new life should look like. 
 As soon as I had a little bit of money, I chose to embark on the Duality quest, and there are no words that manage to describe adequately how profoundly my life has changed since then.

Before, I had felt hollow, anxious (I got diagnosed with PTSD), lost and utterly trapped in my ex’s power games. I felt like falling into pieces on the one hand, but had to be the perfect mother on the other hand, or my ex would have managed to take the children away from me. More than once I felt so hopeless and broken that giving up seemed to be the only option – but at the same time I knew perfectly well that I could not let that happen. I had two children to fight for. I had to find a way through this mess for their sake and their well-being.
 With Duality, I learnt to navigate the extreme emotional, psychological, social and financial war I was dragged into by my ex. I learnt to heal my trauma, let go of the suffocating anxiety, I managed to establish healthy boundaries and to keep the massive betrayal of family and friends emotionally at bay, who chose to believe and spread all my ex’s lies about me without hesitating. I learnt to invite light and joy back into my life, despite the ongoing battle and the disillusionment over the fact that official bodies (police, courts, private experts) that were supposed to protect me and my children, didn’t do so (quote: “he was not aggressive enough”; physical abuse statistics are so drastic in South Africa that emotional abuse or a simple rape is just smiled upon). I am a hundred percent convinced, that Duality and energy healings were THE ultimate factor to protect me from giving up and from developing any physical illnesses despite all the toxicity I was exposed to. With Duality, I grew into a much much bigger, better and stronger version of myself, supported by so many of your wonderful masterclasses and e.g. the free 21-Day-Confidence-challenge by Marisa Peer. With this challenge I was able to heal deeply-rooted childhood trauma that had primed me for my toxic marriage; I was able to forgive myself, my ex and his flying monkeys, and I managed to silence my inner critc. I learnt that I am ENOUGH. I learnt to count my blessings in this storm, to dance in the rain and to feel truly grateful. 

I also understood: my soul had signed up for all this shit for a reason. I understood my calling: I had to go through these extremely rough times to be able to help others in similar situations, to be able to truly listen and comfort them, to be the light amongst those who are still trapped in this crazy, overwhelming darkness toxic people create around themselves, and to raise awareness about toxic people/narcissists, their behaviour and strategies. Every soul saved from this hell is a win! 

I started practicing Reiki again (a gift I had inherited from my late father) and – miraculously - the people that find me are usually entangled in some form of toxic relationship and anxiety. 

I plan to create global support groups for survivors of narcissistic abuse (emotional and financial security nets), and have recently started a Twitter account to spread light in that community that is usually very focused on the dark side that controls their lives. 

And my ultimate dream is that - one day - I will have my own Masterclass and program at Mindvalley, specifically helping people to recognise, navigate and heal from toxic relationships. To empower them just like you have empowered myself. To re-connect them to their inner light and to show them their true strength. 

I am only at the very beginning of my journey to make this world a better place, but without your uplifting and inspiring (free) content, I would not be where I am now. Mindvalley was and is my connection to the life I am craving, to the future I want to have. 

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. 

May the Longtime Sun Shine Upon You
 All Love Surround You 
 And The Pure Light Within You
 Guide Your Way On!

And last but not least: THANK YOU for the recent free 7-day-trial. Since I was not able to manifest financial abundance yet (I even had to start a public fundraiser because the legal battle with my ex has been financially suffocating, and on top of that my car had died on me end of last year and I could not pay the health insurance for my kids and myself anymore). I had wanted to participate in Marisa’s Abundance Quest for a very long time. So last week was my chance, and I soaked up most of her 4-week-content in mere days. Her content is always so extremely powerful – and I will keep you posted how things go. 

Take care and keep well! 

You and Mindvalley have made all the difference to me!

Namaste,
