Smokey the Lion: Adventures of an Awakened Heart

Smokey is about a lion who has abused his power by bullying the other animals in the jungle. Searching for meaning and love in his life because he is truly sad and lonely, he learns from the other animals the truth of who he is and that his fear is his own insecurities. He meets a lioness named Suzie that shows him that by opening his heart to love can be his greatest virtue. As Smokey overcomes his fears, he learns to live in peace and harmony within his community. Smokey learns that a leader of great courage and strength comes from self-love and that love prevails all.

This heartwarming story is my story of how I overcome my own vulnerability and opened my heart. I fell in love with the lions at the GG Conservation in South Africa as I got to observe their personalities. They also have a story to tell. My love for saving these beautiful animals from extinction is forever in my heart and truly hope you can understand that even the bravest of animals need saving too.

Part of my proceeds go to preserving our wildlife kingdom and to educate the public and future generations.
