let me introduce myself

My name is Leilani Yizar-Reid, I am a woman and a grieving mother of 8 souls, who is motivated to help others seek and walk a journey toward individual wholeness and wellness. Grief has been my greatest lesson and my hardest obstacle.  When I look back over my life realize how grief and loss have traveled this journey with me, yet through it all, I still feel blessed to keep walking on it.  That is why I created River Rise, to teach others what I have learned from life and through formal and holistic teachings, how to walk a journey with authenticity, love, and self-awareness.  

With darkness comes light, the path toward light is very hard, remember balance is key.
