Shanti wrote a book about her loss, to give her grief a place, she also gave workshops to help people to process their traumatic experiences or give them the strength to free themselves from a bad situation. She has published her second book last year which spirituality combines exercises to find self love based on the insights she found after the loss. Sharing her emotional story of the loss of her son, Shanti will share with the audience how they can be more self-loving, and how she has turned this traumatic experience into something very powerful and valuable.
