I have always considered myself an artist. Ever since childhood. I began painting at the age of 10. My Father always encouraged my art ambition. It was a rough beginning for me however as I was about to be put into an orphanage and my adopted Father came along and took me in …I had 4 brothers and a sister at the time that I thought were my family. Three of my brothers were shuffled off to a place called “Boys Town” in Nebraska, which I don’t remember much only them being taken away from me.
I got into this new home with a wicked step mother who hated me and this took on a whole new scenario for me. I read a lot and stayed to myself to stay away from her and my new adopted Father was gone a lot so art was my go to. I was able to loose myself in my art and keep my mind going learning about the masters in impressionism.
I don’t like to keep focusing on the past, so just know that the circumstances were difficult and had to endure a lot of pain being separated from a family that wasn’t all together to begin with and a new environment of love and hate combined. I endured and got to go to good schools and had clothes and good food to eat, but not a whole lot of enduring love except from my New Daddy who when he was around embraced my talents.
Moving forward to later details as I had spend some 10 years with this situation and after finishing high school I was accepted into a very fine art school. My ambition was to attend the Ringling School of Art in Florida. My Dad had friends who would have let me stay with them while I attended the school.
Well, things don’t always work out the way we want in life. One thing was this was back in the late 60’s and things aren’t always planned back then. My Dad lived large and had lots going on with his business and boats and cars and other priorities. He didn’t think he was ever going to have health issues although he had diabetes and was a large man. His wife made sure I was never to have anything, only to find this out after he suffered a massive coronary and died.
My confusion only started then. Much has become clearer in my later years now and I was left penniless and had to find another home at the age of 18 and live with room mates I didn’t even know. I really don’t know how I made it except I know my art kept me going. I took classes at the local museum in my town and was working for a dentist at which I became good at. Many things were very difficult and I knew I didn’t want to be around the women who betrayed me with hate and just did everything on my own. My dreams were crushed at the time, I was about to lose my car my Dad sold to me which was a 65 Mustang as the credit life my Dad told me was on the car was not and she took that too. I had to refinance my car to keep it as I had to work.
Many obstacles were put in my path. Again my art kept me going and I worked also, sewed my own clothes and kept going. I painted and sold any paintings so I could to make extra money on the side.
What was very devastating became a lifelong quest to make my life better. I worked many jobs. I ended up marrying a man like my “childhood” as all I knew and it worked out for a while, we lived in Chicago, and I kept working and attaining many different jobs with better pay each time. We divorced after almost 9 years, and moving to Atlanta was the highlight of my life to get away from the cold tundra of the North!
There are a lot of details in between I would rather not go into as it is very painful. The past makes us for the future, and I would prefer to hit only the highlights to be useful to others who feel they cannot go forward. Sometimes, our disappointments turn into treasures that we cannot understand until we are older and see the path set before us.
My job experiences were aplenty, and I did attend college here and there, so my experiences helped me attain a job selling lighting for a large lighting company. This became my home and this was my family for over 23 years and I attained the highest level in lighting as a CLC, and also top 3 level in sales worked with designers, architects, builders and electricians and kept up my art along the way all the with the notion that someday I will be able to “just be an artist” and do what I love the most.
I found a man that enjoyed the same things I did, we met sailing as that was one of my fondest past times and decided to get married. We both enjoy art as he is a fine photographer, and we both have very different opinions, but we get along and have been married now 24 years! He helps me do what I love and continues to encourage and help me with the photo end along with his art, we are a great team working to fulfill our dreams of me with my oil painting and him with his birefringence art designs, which are quite beautiful with oil and water and digital images.
I hope this gives you something to understand my passion with the arts is my love and keeps me going. I do believe I am here by the grace of God, and what to make sure that is understood as I love his unending love for me to keep going.

Dear women, I want to remind you that your voice is a powerful tool that can move mountains, change lives, and transform the world around you. Often, we may feel like our voices are not heard, dimmed, or don’t matter. However, it’s essential to recognize that our voice is the gateway to our thoughts and inner self. When we open our mouths and speak, we reveal our beliefs, values, and life’s story. Understanding the power of our voice can lead to a sense of wellness. Our voice allows us to express ourselves, convey our emotions, connect with others, and release what we’re feeling. Embrace the uniqueness of your voice and use it to make a difference in the world.
I understand first-hand that speaking up and standing up for oneself can be intimidating. For a long time, I lived my life behind a mask, pretending to be someone I thought the world wanted me to be. I always felt that my story and voice were not enough, to the point where it negatively affected my well-being. It wasn’t until I found mentorship, guidance, and bet on myself that I was able to break free from the constraints that held me back and evolved into the real me, Camille. Knowing my worth has been a wonderful feeling, and I want you to experience the same. I am on a mission to teach women how to discover and use their voice, which I believe is their superpower. I have developed an easy-to-follow strategy called “Because I Have A Voice,” which can help you unlock the immeasurable benefits of your voice.
Remember that you are enough, and you have the power to achieve your goals.

The Story of how I met Thomas and what he did for me:
We met at Astral, days after I asked the universe for a new friend that would be fun to be with and take me to the next level in my soul journey…
I can read a little of the beginning of the book I’m writing …“You’re gonna miss me, when I’m gone
These were words I’d say to Thomas often when he made me feel bad…
he would always respond with “where are you going?”
And I’d say “far away”
Little did I know he’d be going so very far far away from me …
WTF What just happened …. ( I’m writing this the week after …) after all we had been through together, after all the things we’d done together, all we’d seen, everywhere we had been … all we learned … and shared with each other … and what about all the plans we had made … what about
SKYRose… and SpiritWell … those lofty dreams, that hadn’t materialized? We’re we aiming too high? Did we want greater change in the world then was possible??
And how about All we’d invested of time, energy, and resources … all for nothing … God has to have a plan …
how is this possible??? how is it possible he’s gone???
I met Thomas for the first time at Astral Connections …
Lois, my business partner said she had met this guy and I’d really like him and she’d asked him to come back later to meet me…he may become a good client…
OMG and then I met him. I remember that day as if it was yesterday….he was wearing a bright red sweatshirt … and he had such a presence! Tall in stature! And Those bright blue sparkling eyes, his hair was salt and pepper though he appeared young and vibrant … I knew instantly we had a connection – past life, soul mates, something primordial … I believe he did too … and when he smiled it was as though joy was spreading throughout the universe …
That first day I met him we talked for hours about all kinds of things and he introduced me for the first time to Dr. Gersens The beautiful Truth and Pollyanna. I still have the yellow post-it note with his writing and the homework he asked me to do … I realize now it’s his way of leaving an opening so he could have another meeting …
It was well past midnight and we had to close shop … so we said goodbye … and I hugged him … As far as hugs go … Thomas gave the best hugs ever ….
Thomas: eccentric, intelligent, attractive, passionate, friendly and this first meeting left me with a lasting first impression that caused me to crave more … for the first time in a long time I was attracted to someone again … and this someone was WOW!!
I watched him from behind as he walked out the front door, he must have felt my stare … I remember every sense in my being alert after that meeting … wondering when I’ll see him again…
who was this guy and who was he to be in my life, I wondered, I alreAdy knew this wasn’t only a one time meeting!
What happens next…is an amazing, unpredictable journey with someone I met in an instant and gone in an instant …
found and lost and lost and then found … a journey of losing oneself and finding one self began with a friendship …
and you’ll have to wait for the book to be finished to find out…what happened next…

After 35 years in nursing, from clinical practice to running her own nurse consultancy company, Toni wanted to write a book. She wanted to talk about what it takes to heal from dysfunction and trauma in her own life to create a heart-centered impact and help heal others.
With the publication of the book, came the audiobook production and Toni was introduced to the power of the spoken word. A “chance” conversation led to a meeting with an American Media company and Radio Toni was born.
From these humble beginnings grew a love of interviewing businesses and people, about life, business, and the universe. Her intuitive interview style has taken the world by storm.
