She came out from the maternity ward to live in boarding houses and boarding schools till she finished high school. She absorbed ideals, theories and values of the Hashomer Ha’zair youth movement.

Aharon Yoel Hazan a Rabbi and an author whose books are in Israel’s National Library, was one of her great-grandfathers; the grandparents she knew were a Hasidic (Lubavicher) man and a medicine and merchant woman; her parents were homestead pioneers.

She healed from Asthma in her childhood, from Epilepsy (Petit-Mal) in her youth. Essential and important components in her healing were moves she made from Ma’anit socially pressure-cooking life-style to Tel Aviv and Hod Hasharon workaholic one.

Her gifts and potential started to naturally manifest in her teens: in 1973, she became a typist, progressed to be a research assistant in The Institute for Kibbutz Society Research, and a speaker of Kibbutz life to Canadian and USA College Students in Givat Haviva College, Israel. In 1976 she took the speaker podium in Yale University, U.S.A. In the mid 1970ies life called on her to take the leader's podium, Ma'anit Culture Committee entrusted her with organizing and producing a Pesach dinner to 1,200 guests; Ma'anit Secretary entrusted her to be in charge of 120 volunteers from all over the world. In 1977 she taught British and Irish volunteers Hebrew.

In Autumn 1978 she moved from Ma'anit to Hod Hasharon to become an export/import clerk, climb all the ladder stairs to a company manager and in 1997 left her well paying job to follow her burning desire to heal her broken, harmed and hurt heart, trans-form vict-I'm into vict-Or success, to live her heart's dreams, love to learn, passions to create, mentor and speak.

From 1997 until 2002 she taught Universal Energy seminars, Mothers/Babies Reflexology courses in Hod Hasharon, and at Genesis College, Tel Aviv an Aromatherapy course.

In 2006 she was Israel Reflexology Association chair woman and in 2010 following her free-bird heart and spirit she moved on to north Israel where she is living more dreams come true, her heart sings and her soul and spirit freely and happily fly.

Her book The Challenge Hebrew version reached Israel's chains bookstores: Steimazky and Zomet S'farim in 2009. Its English versions reached Amazon in 2013.
