"Writing my life story has enabled me to give a voice to what had been laying in silence within. It has afforded me the opportunity to cleanse, renew and close the past, enabling me to walk freely and peacefully into my future. A future that is no longer based on fear but based on love."

"Some chapters are brief and humorous, while others provide solace and reflection. Several are worth reading twice, and selfishly I wanted to hear more. I found a new friend who brought me knowledge and comfort through her personal rebirth. My "Missing Peace" is the lighthouse that ensures a safe space to feel sadness, remorse, pain, and anger but also joy, laughter, and love…Thank you JoJo, I appreciate the journey."

The 5 Pillars of Transformation

Being bedridden for over 1,460 days with a neurological illness caused JoJo Marie to lose everything she knew herself to be and be part of. JoJo shares her journey of transforming pain, anger and bitterness into Trust, Acceptance, Gratitude, Commitment and Liberation; the 5 Pillars of Transformation. These pillars enabled JoJo Marie to pave a path of joy and wellness, propelling her into a Universe of infinite possibilities and deep inner peace.

Healing Vibration

It is very important to stand guard against the negative energy that surrounds, and also the negative energy which we create within us. Our awareness and intention of energy will create our reality in each and every moment. Beat the drum of your desires and allow the healing vibration to resonate within you and around you.

I Am Not a Warrior

The true gift in my healing was coming out the other side a kinder, gentler and more compassionate human being. When I realized that I had more to gain by embracing vulnerability than I did by putting up armour, my world changed forever.
