Meet Trinity

A spiritual warrior is a person who challenges fears, lies, false beliefs, and judgments that create suffering and unhappiness, and transforms them into awareness, discipline, courage, and above all else LOVE.  Diana, aka Trinity, Nieves is a spiritual warrior.  Trinity grew up in a tough neighborhood in Brooklyn, NY.  She witnessed and experienced horrifying atrocities in the streets, school and at home.  Trinity felt there was nowhere to go to for love or acceptance. She always felt judged.

All of this caused her to feel afraid of people.  Trinity hid as much as she could, and stayed just beneath the radar.  She acted bad enough to get by on the streets and good enough to get by at home, school and church. No one really knew Trinity.  She was always trying to fit in somewhere not really feeling like she fit in anywhere. Not accepting or understanding who she was, Trinity was always trying to be what other people wanted her to be in order to feel accepted and loved.   She felt confused, angry, scared and took uncalculated risks with her life defying God to take her.

Trinity was also highly sensitive to peoples’ deepest feelings and thoughts, unknowingly taking them on as her own. Of course she didn’t know what this was at the time.   All she knew was that she felt and knew things others didn’t and this made her feel like a freak.  So she buried her true self deep down inside covered it up with alcohol, drugs, abusive relationships, as well as, a college education, a professional career and various hobbies. She was hiding…yet wondering why she felt invisible, alone, rejected, and abandoned by everyone including herself.

Trinity started to become AWARE while she was married and soon to be mother.  She was feeling things she couldn’t understand or explain. Trinity knew she needed to make some changes in her life, but she couldn’t see how she could survive on her own with a child.  So out of FEAR and false beliefs she continued to live a lie, trying to keep quiet, under the radar and fit in yet again. But this did not last for very long as she was diagnosed with scoliosis, an illness that had her temporarily immobile. Trinity was AWARE her body was telling her to stop living a lie so she decided to file for a divorce and begin a new life with her son.  And it was no accident she was also laid off from her high profile job.  Trinity intuitively knew these concurrent events did not occur by coincidence, and therefore, developed the COURAGE to transform her life.

With DISCIPLINE, Trinity started to heal herself - practicing yoga regularly, utilizing various alternative-healing modalities and deep inner work.  The most intense learning came from understanding that her feelings were real and not bad.  She could flow with and not be paralyzed by them as she had experienced frequent panic and anxiety attacks.  Trinity has also learned more about her “empathic intuitive” abilities, accepting them as gifts and not a curse. But this spiritual warrior’s journey isn’t over yet. While Trinity has acquired various degrees and certifications, her most rewarding education is the one she is receiving through living each day with its ups and/or downs, and learning not to judge them or her self.  Trinity has learned a lot about herself through her experiences. 

While she has had a difficult time being a single mom, Trinity is discovering how to not only be present and patient with her child but also with herself.  Trinity has also been learning how to deeply connect with people on a whole new level – being vulnerable while maintaining healthy boundaries.   The most challenging aspect of Trinity’s healing has been to love and accept her self.  Trinity is committed to uncovering every part of her truth and being who she is. She is learning how to love and care for herself in ways she was never taught as a child and is teaching her son, as well as others, how to do the same.  Trinity is also realizing at a deeper level that she is perfect with all of her perfect imperfections. Most importantly, she is discovering that her past doesn’t define who she is.  Trinity can and is creating a life filled with love, acceptance and peace.

Trinity is an expert in assisting people to discover and express their truth, and feel the LOVE that dwells within.  She is an empathic intuitive, board certified transformational coach and energy practitioner, author, and motivational speaker.   Trinity helps clients to transform their lives and create what they desire.  She also teaches parents how to help their children live their truth and flow with their feelings.  Trinity facilitates workshops across New Jersey and New York.   She has published various articles in Inner Realm magazine, Self-Growth.com and LOVEolution.com.  She was also a contributor to two published books, “Navigating 2012 – by Dr. Michael Smith” and “Learning To Flow by Jeff Scholl.”   Trinity also distributes a free Love Yourself!
