Welcome.
A little bit about me and what I do...
Hello and thank you for stopping by.
My name is Cyndi Akel, also known as Cyndi Flagg.
I grew up as a child in a household filled with depression, suicide attempts, sexual abuse, physical abuse, substance abuse, verbal abuse, emotional abuse, mental illness-in particular schizophrenia, divorced parents, violence, rage, terror, death and love.
I knew as a child I was different, not only because my parents were immigrants, survivors themselves, and divorced, also because I had been on the receiving end and witness to much of the abuse that had taken place. It was our family secret.
Even though the abuse and volatility was normal and commonplace in my household in my younger years, there was something within me that believed that this was not the norm or how life was meant to be.
I made a commitment to myself to rise above the shame and trauma I experienced, to heal the anguish and heartache I felt, to heal the betrayal and the lies I had been told, to love myself, to choose the life I desire, rather than the life that was reflected, projected, and forced upon me.
My childhood was also filled with love, joyful memories, family values, and dreams. This of course created much confusion for myself in understanding what a healthy, vibrant, joyful relationship truly was.
I chose many years ago and continue to choose to respond, which is grounded from heart centered, empowered and inspired action, vs. to react, which stems from a place of fear, separation, disconnect, of spiraling out of control, and disempowerment.
I move forward in the present moment in and as Power, Grace, Courage, Trust, Forgiveness, Surrender, Joy, Awe and Wonder, and Loveโฆ.remembering who I am from moment to moment and embodying my DIVINITY.
In Gratitude,
Cyndi
My Mission and Intention
