I was born in Germany as an only child to parents who had been in World War II. My love for music and performing arts came to an abrupt stop when my mother died when I was 21 years old and I re-directed my life to science and entered Medical School, where ultimately I became a Pathologist and moved to the USA at the age of 27 where I got married and had 2 daughters. That threw me into the depth of exploration about what it means to be an immigrant, a mother (whose death I never really quite recovered from) and a woman in a very competitive man's world of medicine and science. Explorations led me to finding the Diamond Approach in some very unlikely ways and more and more questions seemed to be coming up and fewer and fewer answers which is extremely refreshing and freeing.
