I am an international artist, always searching for answers. My past clients include Lionel Richie and hundreds of wonderful people around this world with beautiful hearts.

Twenty years ago, I moved to the US from the Czech Republic and have lived in New York City; Chicago; Florida; and Santa Barbara, California, where I AM now, with my husband and daughter.

In 2012, I was hit by a car in Chicago and went to the "other side." During my near-death experience, I received spiritual and astrological information about this world. When I recovered, I set out on a healing journey with shamans and fellow artists to Peru and other sacred places.

After these life-changing events, I felt compelled to write this book about my experience to help everyone who has ever felt lost or confused in this world, to urge them not to give up on hope. Although my daughter Emilie keeps me busy, I continue investing my passion and time into this project. You are part of it.

When you read these words, they will soon be in your heart. You are not alone.
