Testimonials
"Through the stories and experiences of others, we find wisdom, inspiration, and the courage to embrace our own journey."
"Losa has literally saved my life. And on more than one occasion. A life coach who has been a lifeline many times. I have been working with Losa since my release from Jail to better my communication and self regulating skills so I can move forward to be the person I want to be. She has provided a holistic approach to what that looks like and how I can achieve that. The issue was my childhood trauma and how when triggered, anger would be my outlet. My Anger took no prisoners and it seemed like I was in a trance until the rage ended. Then I’d have to go into damage control to try and repair what had been done. It wasn’t good. Through the sessions I’ve had with Losa I’ve been able to build skills and strength to be able to talk about things that trigger me at an early stage allowing myself and those around me time to breath and execute more healthier outcomes. Early intervention has been a God send for me in self regulation and having the strength to be honest about how I’m feeling, instead of people pleasing has enabled me to take accountability for my actions at a preventative stage rather than a reactive one. She asks great questions and has genuine concern which creates honest dialogue where I feel safe to open up the wounds of my childhood and learn how to heal from them instead of hide from them. She is invested in making sure I succeed as a person in life. And that is Everything!"

INTRODUCING
Wahine Warrior
By Losa Patterson
"From the ashes of trauma emerges forgiveness and love."
Wahine Warrior: From the Ashes of Trauma Emerges Forgiveness and Love invites you into the intimate tapestry of everyday life stories that weave powerful lessons of healing and transformation. Through the personal lens of my journey, I share experiences that speak to the depths of pain, sorrow, and heartache, and how they can be transformed into opportunities for growth and healing.
At its core, this book is a testament to the strength and resilience of the human spirit. I have learned that from the ashes of trauma emerges a Wahine Warrior—an embodiment of love, kindness, and resilience. This book is not just a story of my own healing, but an invitation for readers to find their own path to forgiveness, healing, and a life of deeper compassion.
Through every page, I hope to inspire and empower others, particularly those within my Pacific community, to embrace the power of their own inner Wahine Warrior.

Book Testimonials
"Thank you for your bravery, rawness, and vulnerability. At times, your truths were confronting, yet I appreciated the suggestions you offered after each chapter. The use of metaphors and Pacifika sayings enriched the reading experience. Thank you for writing this book; it serves as a poignant reminder that we can heal from intergenerational trauma. There’s much more to digest, but for now, I will reflect on the profound impact of my morning readings. I leave you with this Whakataukī: ‘Iti noa ana he pito mata. From the withered tree, a flower blooms.’ This metaphor beautifully encapsulates your book’s message — that even from what appears lifeless or strained, new life and beauty can emerge."
