    Mika IS BACK! Join her as she talks about losing herself and coming back to basic. Spirituality is a never ending journey with ups and downs and sometimes we lose our way. We are humans on this earth, learning and growing. Most of all we are doing our best to be the best versions of ourselves. Don't be scared to get lost. We can get lost together.
