"The best investment ever!"

As a kid a had a notebook with all my life plans. I wanted to finish college at 20 have a doc degree by 24 and travel the world at 25 but life has a way of laughing at our plans.
I grew up in California. I loved learning and I was very independent, an athlete, writer, and straight-A Student but my entire world turned upside down when I graduated high school at 16 and found out I had been born in Mexico and I was forced to move there. 
It was crazy culture shock, a yr later I found myself in an arranged marriage being married off too young and facing severe physical, emotional, financial and sexual abuse every day. I wanted to die, I could not find a way out, I tried to escape, call the police, etc no one ever seemed to care but I kept praying and begging God to take me or train me and he started training me to grow stronger, wiser and finally strategize a way out. Thank God I was able to escape after 5 yrs and continued to let God train me and grow as I found for custody of my daughter while juggling 3 jobs, going back to college with sports and academic scholarship and trying to stay alive. But my schedule was hectic somedays I wouldn't even eat and if I slept 7 hours a week I was lucky. I ended up facing a severe illness all the time having throad infections being on antibiotics for months until the doctors told me I had to give smth up and rest or I would die in a few months of severe exhaustion. 
As much as I hated making that choice I gave up school and continued to fight for custody of my daughter and realized I could not function as a good mom when I was so exhausted all the time. I had been a nerd and athlete all my life so I knew how to eat well and that not getting sleep would kill me but I felt I had no choice. 

Doing research I came across some of Mindvalley speakers and authors such as Emily Fletcher, Sleep Doctor Michael Breus and then Lifebook... I borrowed money to do Lifebook and was hooked. 
I watched all the masterclasses that were free, consumed all they had online and saved up for a year in order to purchase the All Access. This was the BEST INVESTMENT EVER! It has changed my life. 
I sleep better, have learned to simultaneously train my mind, body and soul and hope to help others do the same.
I was blessed enough to know English and access all this info and resources but sadly many moms here don't. I want to help them.
