Not Your Average Teacher-
Teaching through and healing from trauma. Growing, glowing, unlearning and learning. Trying to keep it real.

During the lockdown, I decided that I wanted to do some soul-searching and try my best to grow as a human being. The lockdown also brought to light so many things about the relationship I was in and ultimately its demise. It all lead to me looking within and discovering so many things about myself- especially my sense of worth. Now, I'm committed to being and accepting the most authentic version of who I am and loving myself to the fullest.

You can’t f*ck with someone who’s got nothing to lose, zero f*cks to give, and who turns her obstacles into opportunities. Every. F*cking. Time.

Nothing to see here, just a picture of my dog that my ex sued me for and won in what appears to be the dog park of the building where my ex lived or lives that the cyberstalker somehow magically had ✨🥰

Three years ago, I decided that I wanted to take my pain and turn it into my power. One of the ways that I set out to do that was by using my platforms, primarily on TikTok, to share my healing journey and build a community centered around self-love, authenticity, etc.. When that initial goal/dream came true, and I recognized that, I became the target of a relentless, disgusting smear campaign and awful psychological abuse (intimidation tactics like death threats). This has been going on for over a year and a half.

Despite that, I've recently been speaking more candidly and openly about my dream of one day being a full-time Social Emotional/Empowerment Coach for women and children on social media. Today, as I talked about the role, my vision, etc.. on a TikTok livestream, the cyberstalker once again made it abundantly clear that they have nefarious intentions to stop that dream before it even launches. They attempted to discredit me using multiple accounts which were ignored and blocked (accounts attacking my credentials, saying it's a scam, etc..) Prior to this, they made countless accounts using my picture and accusing me of doing awful, unspeakable, and obviously untrue things to children--my reputation as an educator and as someone who works with children speaks for itself.

Attempting to start over, however, to rebuild financially, heal from the trauma of being in an abusive relationship, chase your dreams, thrive, and live the life that you deserve while having someone set on doing everything they can to get in your way is much like trying to swim and stay afloat while someone tied to an anchor at the bottom of the ocean tries to take you down and drown you with them.

Neither the NYPD nor TikTok have done anything. A restraining order, which basically cost me $14,000 in legal fees just to drop, didn't stop it. I woke up one day and decided enough is enough. I got tired of living in fear, of being hyper-vigilant, of walking on eggshells, of letting my dream(s) dry up like a raisin in the sun. Like many other survivors, I chose to take my power back by no longer dealing with the Justice System and continuing to use my platform to not only bring awareness to abuse and stalking, but also to inspire and help others, and to connect with the community when it comes the dreams I'd like to pursue.

As I find myself at a professional & personal crossroad, I hope this post finds its way to anyone who'd be interested in covering this story, to anyone hiring, to people who know what it's like to be silenced, to people on a healing journey, to anyone who needs to know they're not alone, to anyone who's interested in healing alongside me or learning about Social Emotional/Empowerment Coaching, to whoever wants to brainstorm and collaborate on how we can make meaningful change, and everyone in between.

Wishing you all a & a magical holiday season filled with joy, love, and peace 🎄🎅🏻
I was looking for a picture to post and stumbled onto this one, along with the cutest videos ever, taken in 2020🐶🫶🏻 Made my heart smile. There was (and every now and then still is) a time when it was too painful to even see other dogs but I’m so grateful that time has passed and that despite everything that happened and is going on, I can still say I regret nothing because even though I lost my baby boy (literally through lies, manipulation, and purgers), I gained and chose my freedom.

He doesn’t have social media but I had to take a trip down memory lane for my forever number one man (and what I thought was my namesake kinda for like 31/32 years of my life😅). Being a first generation immigrant isn’t easy— and I can only imagine how hard it was for my dad. He uprooted his entire life, leaving behind his thriving career, his entire family, and the world as he knew it to try to give his children a better life and opportunities, children he had to navigate raising in a culture completely different than the one he was raised in and dealing with all the s**t that came with that (and let’s face it, most of that s**t came from me, the oldest, outspoken, stubborn, fellow Scorpio black sheep 🙈). He made so many sacrifices for us and while I might not have it all figured out, but my biggest dream is to help him and my mom retire and I won’t rest until I make it come true inshallah. I’m so, so grateful and proud to be his daughter.

I don’t have the words to express how I’m feeling right now because I’m super emotional but my beautiful friend gifted me with a traditional outfit from Algeria and grateful doesn’t even begin to describe it. Thank you 🥹😭❤️

After stopping at City Hall & listening to Council Member & many inspiring advocates speak about their work to pass a legislative packaged called “Support Survivors” (swipe for the INCREDIBLE resolutions proposed by Council Member Cabán), something compelled me to go back to school & pick up some more personal belongings I left in my bestie’s classroom— and honestly, it was fitting and makes sense. This summer, instead of resting and recharging so that I could go back to school refreshed and ready for at least another year before thinking about leaving the classroom, I was juggling self-care for my and the constant attempts to re traumatize me, smear my name/reputation, and directly attack my livelihood (aka financially abuse me)that have been going on from January 2022 by an “anonymous” cyber stalker; working to try to get out of the debt that I occurred in large part because of my abuser, and spending so much of my time & energy in and out of the precinct and Courts. I knew in mid July that going back to school in September was impossible and made the decision to take a restoration of health leave even though I had lost SO much of my PTO the year that I was sued for my dog between the hearings, ending up in the hospital, etc.. Despite the huge financial chokehold that’s putting me in, I don’t regret the decision.. but with everything going on, I haven’t even had time to think about how much I truly miss being in the classroom. It makes my f*cking BLOOD boil when I think about how abusers literally get away with murder, and wreak havoc not just on survivors but the people in their lives— whether it’s their families, their colleagues..or the kids they teach. But between the rally/hearing, and the outpouring of joy/love I got, that rightful rage is the fuel I didn’t realize I needed to get back the capacity to get more involved and do the work on a broader scale.
To Council Member Cabán and everyone who’s worked tirelessly for this legislation, thank you doesn’t even begin to cover it.
