TESTIMONIALS
"Together, the space allowed creativity to become a safe bridge back to the self. Through writing, art, silence, and reflection, there was an invitation to soften, to unravel emotional weight, and to return to inner peace in places that once felt too heavy to touch—activating light through tools of self-connection that had long been held, shielded, or unheard within the darkness.
This is not just a workshop. It is a container.
A refuge.
- K. Nguyen (Peace In The Darkness Workshop)
"A very awakening day. I was able to unlock a door of past thoughts and emotions. I was able to get creative through artistic expression and I feel light and free."
- R. Bentley, (Peace In The Darkness Workshop)

"I'm a cancer survivor and also I'm a stroke survivor who was told I would never walk nor talk again, but look at me thriving and moving past just surviving! I'm grateful for the space to be vulnerable and authentic without judgement."
- J. Garcia, (Peace In The Darkness Workshop)
About Angelique, Founder and CEO
Speaker, Facilitator, Artist, Author, and more. There are a multitude of ways in which Angelique expresses her light in the world. Through the implementation of meditation, daily gratitude, and self-accountability, she went from depressed and suicidal to living a life of purpose and freedom. Her content on YouTube shares more of her journey.
Her book "Days of Darkness" offers a collection of insights that she utilized to release her cynical, loathing lens of life. It's a valuable resource for individuals navigating challenging inner thoughts and for the people who care about them. If you'd like Angelique to speak to your community or organization about the power of inner transformation, schedule a meeting to connect with her.
What people have shared about Angelique and her work
"What moved me most was witnessing Angelique lead from a place of real vulnerability. She didn’t hide behind structure or expertise—she allowed her own lived experience, tenderness, and raw honesty to be felt in the space. You could sense that this offering was not created from theory, but from having walked through darkness herself and learning how to sit with it gently, without rushing it away."
"Angelique is a woman of action. As a volunteer, she serves with a heart-centered focus, bringing a rare level of authenticity to her work. When she shared her personal journey and video with our youth experiencing homelessness, the impact was immediate; her lived experience allows her to connect and inspire in a way few others can."
"She has the unique ability to truly listen to others and use her own life experiences to help young people without making it about herself. She truly does want to make a difference in the lives of others."
"Angelique is an awesome human with a beautiful soul! I am grateful for our time in conversation together and with all the others who spoke in the space. I appreciate everything I learned from Angelique in regards to conscious interaction with teens and how to offer and provide the right support to the younger generation. Her wonderful sense of humor and understanding of spiritual concepts makes it easy to connect and feel safe in every conversation!"
Angelique not only authored the book "Days of Darkness", she illustrated the coloring pages as well! You can see more of her work on the Anjulique Art Gallery Page.
