I'm Bhupi, and I went from living in fear to being a confident leader in my own right.
I went from living on Unemployment Benefit to commanding an hourly rate that I deserved, knowing the value of my expertise and being paid to do the work I deeply love to do, to help and serve those just like you.
I went from feeling ugly, embarrassed, sad, and guilty to waking up to be Bhupi.
I hit rock-bottom. I wanted to take my own life but managed to climb out using the same strategies that I will be teaching you in the next 90 days.
We are going to unleash your power so you can live a purposeful, grateful, and happy life
ÔÇ£I am HappilicousÔÇØ is going to change your life forever.
How I Overcame My Fear
IÔÇÖve been right where you are: overwhelmed, afraid and desperate for a new start.
A survivor of child, mental, sexual, and physical abuse, I lived in fear for more than 40 years.
Fear of not being liked ÔÇô of not being worthy or successful or beautiful.
After moving to London, England from Nairobi, Kenya, a few family members shamed me for having dark skin. At the tender age of 11, I was told I did not belong ÔÇô that I was ugly, a failure, and destined to be a failure and alone. I struggled to make friends, as those negative thoughts seeped into my mind.
As I turned 18, I found ways to sabotage relationships. I put walls up and didnÔÇÖt let anyone get close enough to hurt me. Subconsciously or not, I pursued dead-end relationships.
Eventually, I got married and had two amazing boys. In 2004, we all moved to Cambridge, Ontario, Canada. My kids were young, I was lonely and I hated my life. I resented my then-husband for the move.
It was like I was living in a strangerÔÇÖs body.
My marriage lasted 21 years. As the boys grew older, I noticed holes in my relationship ÔÇô big, gaping, Swiss cheese-sized holes. I realised my ex-husband and I had absolutely nothing in common aside from our children. I realised it wasnÔÇÖt going to work because I couldnÔÇÖt find the love and happiness I craved.
I needed someone who wanted the same things in life ÔÇô someone whose bucket list matched mine.
Before this realisation, I hit rock bottom. I wanted to end my life, which I felt lacked meaning or purpose. Menopause was a BITCH, which didnÔÇÖt help at all. My hormones were all over the place, so ladies, I really understand where youÔÇÖre coming from there.
I remember the day I almost threw myself off a bridge into the cold, dark waters of the Grand River. Gazing down at the waves, something snapped. I thought about all the people who would be devastated if I chose to go through with my decision. I knew there would be hurt, upset, and scarring. I thought of my kids, my mum, and of my lifelong friends (you know who you are) ÔÇô and I realised life was definitely worth living.
Of course, I knew I had to make changes. So I focused on the future. I went back to school, and today I am proud to call myself a graduate of UC BerkeleyÔÇÖs ÔÇ£Science of HappinessÔÇØ program and Yale UniversityÔÇÖs ÔÇ£The Science of Well-BeingÔÇØ program. I teach and use the Art of Mandalas as part of the healing process as well as Reiki. I am a Level 2 Reiki graduate which allows me to do long-distance healing.
During these positive life changes, I journaled like crazy. I wrote down everything I did that allowed me to be free and on the other side.
You can too.
In fact, this process laid the foundation for my ÔÇ£I am HappiliciousÔÇØ program. The program includes the same rituals I use when I get stuck in a rut.
Because I know what it feels like when you have no one to talk to ÔÇô when your life is overwhelming, and it feels like thereÔÇÖs no time for anything.
Because I want you to have it all ÔÇô love, success, and happiness.
Would you let me help guide you there?
Much Love,
