The Thin Veil Between Worlds
Introduction: Waking Up to a New Frequency
Have you ever experienced a moment so profoundly world-altering that it completely rewrote the blueprint of who you are? For many, spiritual awakening is a slow, quiet unfolding—a gradual opening of the heart and mind. For me, it arrived like a lightning bolt in 2016. It came through a sudden, catastrophic medical crisis known as peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM), a pregnancy-induced heart failure that left me medically dead, trapped in a weeks-long coma, and frozen like a popsicle.
When you cross over to the other side and are brought back to this earthly density, you do not return alone. You bring back a footprint from the other dimension. Ever since I woke up, the veil between this world and the next has been clear as a bell. I woke up with an unstoppable urge to create, to heal, and to articulate the complex laws of universal energy through a medium that could comfort the most vulnerable minds among us: our youth.
This is the origin story of my 40-book series, Divines Never-Ending Journey. It is not just a collection of adorable children’s stories; it is an energetic roadmap for self-love, mental conditioning, and spiritual resilience.
The Language of Signs: How an Elephant and a Ladybug Found Me
The universe rarely speaks to us in complex academic prose; it speaks in symbols, frequencies, and remarkable timing. Following my third PPCM cardiac death and subsequent near-death experience (NDE), I faced another shattering blow just four months later: the passing of my mother.
Before she crossed over, my mom promised me a beautiful teether. She told me she would show me elephant clouds in the sky and distinct patterns to remind me that love transcends physical death. She kept her promise. The timing of the “art clouds with love from above” that appeared in my life was undeniable proof of our ongoing energetic connection. Because of this, Divine, an adorable, sweet, and adventurous baby elephant, became the main character of my series. Divine embodies good luck, wisdom, and the beautiful mantra of unconditional self-love.
“A thought is a feeling, and when you change your thoughts,
You change your feelings.”
Just eighteen months after losing my mother, my father also prepared to make his transition. The night before he crossed over, he left me with a final piece of wisdom: “Live life like a ladybug.” To him, the ladybug symbolized living every moment to the absolute fullest.
The very next day, as I held his hand in his final moments, a miracle occurred. We were high up in a sealed, brick hospital building in the dead of winter. Yet, out of nowhere, a tiny ladybug landed softly on my father’s arm. Looking out the window at the dizzying drop to the ground below, I was struck with profound awe and asked myself, How high does a ladybug fly? That question became the title of my very first Amazon best-selling book. In my series, that ladybug became Spirit, a loyal guide who accompanies Divine the elephant, delivering love from above and reminding readers that our departed loved ones are never truly gone.
Decoding the “Breadcrumb” Reading Method
As an author with an educational background in human services and K-6 education, alongside a Master of Social Work (M.S.W.) from the University of Pennsylvania, I wanted to structure this 40-book series with deep psychological and pedagogical intention.
When I first sat down to write, the words and illustrations poured out of me in an unstoppable ebb and flow. The manuscripts grew so vast that I realized they needed a unique delivery system for young attention spans. I broke the larger narratives down into chapter books and then ultimately transformed individual chapters into standalone books.
I call this the Breadcrumb Reading Method. By delivering the series in bite-sized, purposeful books—such as my first submission, which features three concise chapters—we leave a trail of curiosity. It keeps young readers eagerly following the trail to see where the journey leads, making reading an active, addictive adventure rather than a chore.
Why Young Minds Need Energy and Mindset Tools Today
Many people ask why I choose to target middle schoolers, young adults, and children with concepts as advanced as vibrational frequencies, energy dimensions, and the “silver cord” of spiritual connection. The answer is simple: it is never too early to condition a healthy mindset.
Through the playful adventures of Divine and her circle of totem animals, readers learn how frequency lives within their own soul-spirit. They meet characters like:
- Chappy: A maverick, snappy grasshopper who symbolizes taking high leaps of faith, self-trust, and explicitly “Chooses Happy.”
- Wing: A vibrant orange butterfly from Divine’s Field of Gold who sings about transformation, positive energy, and inherent self-worth.
While the bright, whimsical illustrations easily capture the attention of younger children, the underlying message of ENERGY as the most powerful force in the universe resonates deeply with teenagers and young adults. In a world full of anxiety and noise, these books teach youth how to cultivate a calm, relaxed, and meaningful energy state.
From Hollywood to Healing: A Commitment to Action
My journey has taken me from the structured halls of East Coast academia to a 25-year career in Hollywood as a SAG-AFTRA creator, CEO of Hero Locations Corp., and a sought-after union location manager. But my NDE shifted my mission from building fictional worlds to saving real lives. I used my platform to work with a small group of dedicated women to successfully pass a congressional bill for postpartum depression awareness in May 2019.
Success, whether in political advocacy or publishing, is entirely a team effort. Because of my extensive background behind and in front of the camera, I am fully committed to bringing Divine’s Never Ending Journey directly to the world. Through my verified social media channels, local library outreach, podcasts, and upcoming animated content on the Divine’s Journey YouTube channel, I am showing up. Whether it is the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books, BookCon, or local storytelling hours, I am stepping into the marketplace to get families excited about the healing power of literature.
Conclusion: Turning Pain Into Purpose
Every single book in this series has been painstakingly revised more than three times over an eight-year writing period. It was my saving grace during my long PPCM recovery. Writing these healing, rhyming words functioned as an energetic medicine that repaired my physical heart and my inner spirit.
A portion of all book sales directly supports the PPCM Fund Inc., a non-profit organization I founded near Park City, Utah, to ensure that no other family suffers from undiagnosed, pregnancy-induced heart failure.
How many people are pronounced clinically dead, survive a frozen coma, and return to write an entire literary universe? I lived to tell this story, and through Divine the elephant, I am handing the youth of the world the keys to their own inner healing. The universe is waiting—let’s take this leap of faith together.
