Since then, Leonie has been on yet another journey, meting her now fiance, moving states and giving birth to her beautiful daughter, who was the catalyst for her deep love of everything feminine.

My favourite thing Leonie said:

"In the stillness, comes the clarity"

One Small Step:

Surround yourself with beauty to help you connect with your feminine energy. Connect with colour, sounds, scents. Seek tranquility and stillness to help you be with yourself and cultivate self love.

And your super power would be....

Compassion and kindness. I'm a connector who seeks to make the world brighter.
