I AM
SASKIA LIGHTSTAR
Hay House author,
well-being coach,
spiritual teacher,
motivational speaker,
cancer misfit & happiness ninja.
The truth is that I screwed up my whole life to get to where I am today,
and where I am is happier than I ever dreamt possible.
​
For the majority of my life I was a bit of a superficial airhead,
living a rock n roll life style of designer clothes and constant partying.
​
Then I got breast cancer.
​
And I got pulled into a darkness so thick, so all encompassing,
that I nearly lost myself completely.
​
But I was determined not to give up,
determined to find happiness and live a beautiful life.
​
I was willing do whatever it took to make that happen,
and that's when I started exploring all things mind, body & spirit.
And the more I explored the more my life transformed
and happier I became.
​
It took failed businesses, divorce, an eating disorder and being diagnosed with cancer, for me to find the willingness to venture down a spiritual path and transform my life.
but now I am testament to the fact you can feel lost, unhappy or less than, your whole life and still find your way to confidence, happiness and peace.
