Hello kindred Spirit,

I am so happy our souls are intersecting right now. Welcome to your beautiful space of deeper understanding and inner truth. I pray that the alchemy of words becomes a catalyst for your own unfolding journey as you navigate your inner landscape through poetry.

I'm Sandy, a transcendent poet whose roots are from the beautiful island of Mauritius; however, I've been grateful to call Australia home since I was 15 years old.

My path as a transcendent poet is one of unearthing and excavating—delving beneath the surface of raw emotions and wild thoughts to bring to light the spiritual wisdom that holds us. Within the heart of my poetry, there is no destination or annihilation, only a beautiful integration of chaos into clarity, guiding us to deeper insight and healing.

This profound journey, however, wasn't part of any grand plan; it found me organically, almost uncannily. After navigating intense emotions through various life circumstances, I found myself needing to make sense of it all. This unfolding was particularly transformative because, as a child, expression and emotions were the very aspects of myself I instinctively ran from. Growing up amidst incredible artists – my father, an opera singer; my sister, a soprano; and my cousins, all singer-songwriters – I often remained in the 'spectator shadow,' hesitant to embrace my own voice. In this shadow, I became a devoted supporter of others' voices. This was a pattern that continued as an adult, where I encouraged my own daughters—a singer-songwriter and a writer—often cheering them on in the performer's spotlight, all as I continued to suppress my own expression. In parallel, a challenging home environment taught me early on that expressing emotions wasn't safe, leading to avoidance as a coping mechanism.

Looking back, it's "wonderfully weird" to realise that this very journey of running away from voice, expression, and emotion is the very same one that has been drawing me back to them all along.

It was within the spiritual, psychological, and philosophical books that filled our family home that I first began to find solace and a true sense of serenity. My dad, himself a seeker of truth, opened our minds and hearts to diverse paths, from daily Christian Masses to Vedantic teachings. These early experiences profoundly shaped my internal world and the eclectic nature of my spiritual life, unknowingly preparing me for this emerging path.

Today, as a transcendent poet, I embrace this heritage and my personal journey. I bring the perceived chaos of emotions and wild thoughts to the forefront in my poetry, allowing the flow of words to unearth the spiritual wisdom my soul longs for. Poetry truly provides a beautiful order for this wildness. It’s a space where my raw emotions are truly given a voice, allowing for profound release and understanding.

I am deeply grateful you've entered this world of poetry with me and hope you find resonance here for your own soul's unfolding.
