Featured Interview With Elsa Mendoza
Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
I am a Life Coach and an author of two books. I was born and raised in the Philippines and left the country in my early 20’s to work and live in different countries. I now live in Los Angeles, California. I currently do not have pets.
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
I love books since I was a kid. My mom said that she would see me reading a book at one corner if not playing with my siblings and other kids. I remember I love writing poetry in high school. Then from time to time, I would write quotes and little did I know that it was going to be my first book which became a best seller in Amazon to date.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
My favorite genre is non-fiction specifically personal transformation and books pertaining to spirituality. The spiritual gurus like Eckhart Tolle, Dr. Wayne Dyer, Abraham Hicks, and Neale Donald Walsch to name a few inspire me to write. I love the work that they do to humanity…such loving bringers of light.
Tell us a little about your latest book?
My latest book is titled Wake Up Humanity Poems About You and Me. I started writing this book on December 2017 and finished it on May of this year and published it on June. It was not really in my plan to write this genre as I was working on a different manuscript at that time. I just allowed myself to be strongly led by the inspiration and this is the manifestation of that. The last time I wrote poetry was back in high school. It is an easy read with wonderful illustrations personally hand drawn by my husband who hasn’t drawn in years to make each poetry more meaningful.
It talks about all of us, the entire humanity, about our reason for existence, and the results of our conscious and unconscious actions in our world and our power as human beings.
This is a collection of free verse poems, beautifully written for humanity. It beckons us to pause, reflect, and look within our souls to remember our true nature and live it.
Each chapter will make you think and ask: who we truly are, why we are experiencing the same challenges over and over again, what kind of a source we are in this world and how we can improve our current condition as powerful beings, the collective consciousness for a better world.
