The divine bombshell in me

sees the divine bombshell in you

Does it come as a surprise /

That I dance like Ive got diamonds /

At the meeting of my thighs?

Sacred Bombshell Invocation

Release and surrender.

Breathe fully, deeply, and with great intention.

Light your candle or incense.

Gently close your eyes and enjoy the moment of silence.

Release negative thoughts as they impede your flow.

Invite a connection to your spirit.

Ask for anything that your heart and spirit desire.

Proclaim your intention out loud with an open, pure heart.

How else will the goddesses hear you and grant you favor?

Be still as your intention soars through the ether.

Express your gratitude and say quietly, It is done.

Donna DCruz, Rasa Living Expert in Meditation and Rituals

Foreword

Abiola Abrams and I have a history. I loved her from the moment I met her. Were on the same journey and I love that. You must love, cherish, and honor yourself. Thats what The Sacred Bombshell Handbook of Self-Love will teach you.

I think what makes me a bombshell is that I have come full circle. Ask yourself: Am I in the same place, doing the same things over and over again? If the answer is yes, ask yourself why. When you step out and try something different, you will see things in a different light. Dont be afraid of change. Its the only way.

When I first met Abiola I was on the path of acting and writing in New York City and I was trying to make ends meet. I was really good at bartending and every year I got a bigger and bigger following. One of my clients said, Why dont you open a restaurant? Instead of working for someone else, work for yourself. I will back you.

So I went on the journey of finding my restaurant and then I got diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 33. I was so ashamed. At that point, I owned a restaurant called Haven and I just didnt know how to deal with it. I pushed the whole thing under the rug.

Two years later I got breast cancer again, diagnosed at Stage Four. It was two weeks before my wedding. This rocked my world. I didnt even want to talk about it because I was so embarrassed. I didnt want people to say, Oh gosh, she has cancer. Shes about to die. You dont want to scare other people. You dont know what to tell them.

They gave me three months to live. My doctor told me, If you believe in miracles, maybe a miracle can happen.

I walked out and I said, I believe in God and I believe in miracles.

My faith got stronger. I just got on my knees and I prayed, God, if its my time, then its my time. But if its not, Im a fighter. Give me the tools to fight because I want to fight to live.

I started doing the work. Doing the work is soul searching, meditating, praying, and reading. Little by little, I changed the way I thought. I changed who I was. I started getting into myself. I became a vegan. I got into juicing. I had a regimen. I started exercising every day. I changed my whole belief system and declared, I am a warrior. Im going to beat this.

Every year, my doctor would say, Wow, Bershan! The tests are looking good.

Im now considered no evidence of disease.

This experience changed me for the better because now my life is about giving back. Before, maybe I was selfish; I was thinking only about me. Now its not about me. Life is bigger than me. I know my purpose. I want to help people who are stuck or lost because when youre near death and someone tells you that you have three months to live, you dont know what to do. When you come out of that you say, I have a purpose in my life.

My purpose is to show you that you dont have to live in fear. My journey is to help facilitate positive change in peoples lives. I now help others heal through human connection. I do that as a motivational speaker, certified life coach, and CEO of my inspirational community, URAWarrior.com, where I share my stories and yours.

Dont suffer in silence. You dont have to stay stuck. As Abiola also teaches, step into your greatness. If your default setting right now is set to self-hate, fear, confusion, and drama, then its time to reset yourself to self-love, abundance, prosperity, and self-confidence.

I am a bombshell because I do the work on myself. I am a bombshell because I dont live in fear. I am a bombshell because I try to be the best person that I can be. Looks fade. Pretty hair and strong bodies fade, but character lives forever. I try to get better and better each day.

Bombshell Bershan is making a stamp on life because I am a bombshell warrior. You picked up this book because its your bombshell time, too. Own your bombshell power and step into your greatness.

Introduction:

Own Your Bombshell

This book is not for everybody. I wrote it just for you.

The Sacred Bombshell Handbook of Self-Love is for my superwomen who do too much, my ladies-still-in-waiting, the diva who fears that she is not yet the woman she was born to be. The Sacred Bombshell Handbook of Self-Love is for the woman who looks around one day and says, Oh crap. What if my whole life has been wrong? I wrote this guide for the woman who wakes up and wonders who the stranger in bed is, even though she is you.

Come closer, gorgeous. Slip off your heels. Consider yourself at home. Please, leave the door open.

If you are looking for a perfect guru, then kindly cross the street. If you came to the party to judge, well this is not that kind of party. If you feel uneasy implementing modern magic, then this book may not for you yet. No matter what, its okay. Be where you are. There is no race. This is a judgment-free zone where we welcome, accept, acknowledge, and co-create miracles. This book is not about female superiority of any kind. We celebrate the sacred feminine and the sacred masculine equally. You must only be willing (just willing ) to imagine that you can love yourself without conditions, that your life can be more, and that you are in fact already complete. This is a book for women who want to be for themselves rather than against something or someone else.

If youre looking for a sign, this is it. Theres a Feminine Evolution taking place around us and within us. The Sacred Bombshell Handbook of Self-Love is your invitation and initiation to become the woman you were born to be and to finally live the life you were born to live. Welcome. By reading past this point, you are agreeing to go on a journey. Consider this a vision quest to the center of yourself. Your bombshell self is that most empowered part of you, the part of you that knows your true worth. When I say own your bombshell, I mean own what you believe about yourself, own your story, own loving yourself without apology, and own how you move in the world.
