A Journey Through Time and Transformation

​

Hello and welcome to a space of renewal, empowerment, and discovery. My name is Luz Sierra, and I'm the heart and soul behind LightIn-Up Wellness Coaching. My story, much like yours, is one of complexity, resilience, and an unending quest for meaning and joy in the chapters of life that many dare not to read aloud.

​

Roots and Wings

Born into a vibrant, passionate family from the Dominican Republic and raised in Brooklyn, New York, I was the youngest of eleven children in the bustling, ever-evolving playground of New York City. From the very start, my life was imbued with a rich tapestry of cultures, sounds, and experiences. This lively yet demanding environment instilled in me a deep curiosity about people, their stories, and the myriad ways we seek connection and fulfillment.

​

The Quest for Expression and Service​

Guided by this curiosity, I ventured into the world of filmmaking at New York University, embracing the power of storytelling and visual expression. My years at university were not just about academic growth; they were a gateway to the world, offering opportunities to travel and teach—early steps towards fulfilling a heartfelt commitment to service and giving back.

 

Embracing the Tides of Change​​

Life, in its essence, is an unfolding story of transitions. From the vibrant corridors of NYU to the high-stakes world of corporate events, my career path was as varied as it was enriching. Yet, with time, the relentless pace and pressures of the industry began to dim the very spark that drove me. Burnout, health challenges, and a growing sense of disconnection led me to a crossroads, prompting a period of introspection and the courage to seek a new direction.

​

Rediscovery and Renewal​

At 59, standing at the precipice of change, I found solace and inspiration in the words of Julia Cameron: "It's never too late to begin again." This became my mantra as I embarked on a journey of self-discovery and holistic wellness. What started as a personal quest to reignite my own spark evolved into a passionate endeavor to guide others through their own transitions and transformations.
