This is your mind, heart, and body life toolbox for rising above separation trauma and struggles, to empower you to grow into the best version of YOU. Sara Kassa helps women coming out of long term relationships realize this is the best thing that could have happened to them. You can now stop comprising and pouring into that dysfunctional relationship and pour into what matters the most; YOU. I help you call in your genuine self by empowering you to take control of your life, mindset, and health. The goal is to build up your freedom whether financial or mental, and your confidence to call in that dream partner- if you so chose to of course. We do all this while being vulnerable and sipping on our favourite latte or wine!
