My Story
I’m Noni—an engineer by training, a learning and development professional by trade, and an artist and healing guide by heart.
For over two decades, I worked in corporate and healthcare environments, leading training and development programs for teams across the country. My work focused on structure, systems, and growth—things I could measure and manage.
But when I lost my father, everything changed.
Grief cracked something open in me that couldn’t be solved with a spreadsheet or a to-do list. I found myself overwhelmed, disconnected, and unsure how to move forward. I turned to art—not for beauty or productivity, but simply to feel.
Slowly, art gave me a place to breathe. It helped me process my emotions in a way words never could. What began as a way to cope became a way to heal. This led to something deeper—a calling to help others heal through creativity.
Most grieving professional women are doing everything they can to keep it together. They’re meeting deadlines, showing up for their teams, taking care of their families—and doing it all while carrying an invisible weight no one around them truly understands.
They’re afraid they will never stop grieving. That they will not be able to show up at work and at home like they did before the loss. They fear that they are seen as weak and not productive at work, or worse, they may lose their job. At home, their families are tired of them grieving and just want them to move on and ‘be normal’. They are afraid of losing their relationships and social life. And that if they slow down or stop, everything will fall apart.
I know this because I was there...
The real problem with grieving professional women, isn’t that they are weak or grieving too long. The problem is that they are not provided a safe, structured, and meaningful space to process their grief on their own terms—in a way that works for their super busy schedules, that respects their identity, feelings and needs.
What they really want is to be able to function again—not just on the outside, but internally. They want to feel peace without pretending. They want clarity in their thoughts. They want to be present with their families and focused at workWhat I found, through my own grief journey, is that professional grieving women need a grounded and guided process. A process that combines emotional safety, their innate creativity, and spiritual connection, as a way to integrate grief so they can be present in their life again, fully not just functionally. Facilitating the release of the invisible weight on their shoulders and emerge stronger, more beautiful, spiritually connected and at peace.
