Trust and believe you are not here by accident.
You are here for a greater purpose, and I'm here for all the high vibing feels together.
I'm Lora, Author, Affirmation Coach, and Creator of Joli Ide.
I created Joli Ide to inspire Women's Mental & Spiritual Wellness through guidance and creating a culture that Affirms SELF-Worth, with 10+ years of experience helping women tap into their higher, most authentic "SELF."
What does Joli Ide mean?
Lousiana Creole- Joli (Beautiful) Ide (Mind) = Beautiful Mind
I believe once we acknowledge and own the power we possess, we awaken to our truest SELF.
Why Joli Ide?
In 2011, I lost my only sister at the young age of 32 by suicide. After losing Latrece, I felt I lost a sense of who I was and my connecting piece of the puzzle to how my life was supposed to be. I began speaking self-sabotaging language over my life. I remember reciting in my head,
"I'm lost." "I don't know who I am anymore."
I had attached myself to these thoughts and believed them to be true.
We all need a community of like-minded women committed to SELF-Empowerment- being their very best, and that's what this unconventional, judgment-free space is all about!
My goal is to encourage and partner with you to unlock and unleash your higher SELF and potential.
Check out all the exclusive benefits!
I'm excited you're still here browsing around!
But I must be honest; I've laid out a lot of good ISH in the videos and content on my channel.

In 2011, I lost my only sister at the young age of 32 by suicide. After losing Latrece, I felt I lost a sense of who I was and my connecting puzzle piece to how my life was supposed to be. I began speaking self-sabotaging language over my life. I remember reciting in my head,
"I'm lost." "I don't know who I am anymore."
I had attached myself to these thoughts and believed them to be true.
Months later, I co-created "Live Beautiful Now," a 501©3 non-profit, with a mission to bring awareness to Bipolar Disorder and Suicide prevention.
During this time, I was vulnerable, insecure, and confused, but I continued on this journey to share our story in hopes that others would not have to
experience the same.
I started researching more about Bipolar Disorder & Suicide Prevention because I wanted to understand what happened to my sister and articulate it professionally as a resource. But I was not the professional, and I didn't enjoy it. I felt like a failure.
I've always considered myself a free spirit and go-with-the-flow kind of person but losing my sister shook my world.
I just wanted to be the "old" me again.
There was a 7-year journey of feeling lost, stuck, confused, seeking, and exploring, trying to figure out my purpose. Finally, I began researching the mind and body connection, spiritual practices, and teachings. The information I was gathering was fascinating and spoke to my spirit. This was my ah-ha awakening moment; everything I was going through after losing my sister was all in my mind. I had been living my life through the eyes of the past and suffering because of it. There was no turning back after this SELF-realization.
Side Note: Yes, loss and grief played a massive role in my awakening, but there's also some other shit I went through along this journey: becoming unapologetic about my SELF-ish-ness. Life has an interesting & beautiful way of teaching us.
I began to let go of "people, places, things, & old/ limiting beliefs sucking my energy. I also decided to end my non-profit organization.
This was a new beginning and something I knew deep in my spirit was real for me.
I felt a weight lifted and applause from my sister for finally freeing myself from the past.
I woke up and realized that everything I was seeking outside myself was already within me. This was liberating.
To be clear, I honestly never lost myself.
I was merely lost in the "idea" of what I thought my life was supposed to be. I was trapped in my mind and had disconnected from my most authentic SELF & connection to the Universe, God, Source, Energy (whatever you call your higher power).
And now here we are- Living life as my loving, joyful, free-spirited SELF, again.
