I share with you the surprise of my dreams because true love exists. Read this blog to find out how I got proposed in Bali
So I went to Bali to focus on writing one of my books and just spend some time in nature in 2018. I begged my boyfriend Steven (now FIANCÉ what?!) to come but he kept saying how busy he was with work, so I decided to go solo.
On that trip, a few things happened that changed my life forever. Yes, I got proposed to in Bali.
I’m on my last few days of the trip and my friend Tara Mackey texts me saying she has a friend named Deniz Reno who wants to do a free photoshoot with me. Well, I’m obvi a sucker for free photoshoots because of #content so I say yes. She suggests I wear white for an airy look so I quickly buy a long white lace robe from the side of the street.
It was raining heavily that day and I had just done a 3-hour long podcast interview with my Shamanic Teacher Malaika. It was about to get dark and I really didn’t think I’d make it to the shoot but I checked maps and it was just 5 minutes away and something came over me to just go do it.
The story gets interesting here
He asks again, laughing. “Will you marry me?” My response: OF COURSE!!!! And out he pulls out my ideal ring, a raw green tourmaline on a rustic gold band.
And like that, we are got married!
There were SO many coincidences and serendipities leading up to this moment, and as I teach, you fall into kriya (effortless flow) when you are in alignment with your dharma
Turns out, the moment I told Steven I was going to Bali months ago, he knew instantly that was when he’d propose. The whole time he was telling me he had work and couldn’t come so I would have NO idea. (It worked.)
He was waiting for the ring to be made and finally the day it was, he rushed to the airport and bought a flight on his way there on his phone. He knew I was staying in Ubud and asked someone where they recommend for a proposal and they mentioned The Sayan House, overlooking a cliff.
Little did he know, Ubud is comprised of multiple cities over a large area of land (like LA). And I was staying about 30 min outside of Ubud deep in the jungle.. which happened to be 5 minutes away from Sayan House!
He contacted a photographer I was shooting with but she wasn’t available so she connected him with a friend of a friend, Deniz who was just visiting Bali for 3 weeks and happens to stay NEXT to the Sayan House.

So they connect and she recognizes his name. They had met 6 years ago, as she is also a singer/song-writer and sent him her music in the Myspace days!
She says, “My friend Tara Mackey is good friends with your gf and at her book launch last year and I started following you then and recognize you from her stories!”
