WELCOME TO SHINING LIGHT
The Good Italian Girl
The Good Italian Girl contains the journey of Claudia Callisto, told through her proud Australian-Italian eyes.
Claudia shares her experiences of growing up in an Italian family, both the highs and lows, as she struggled to find her own identity due to the unwritten cultural rules she often felt pressured to follow.
After taking the leap from feeling stuck to re-energised, Claudia has emerged as a woman on a mission with new insights to share with her ethnic soul sisters, Giussa's, and mothers of the world! Purchase the physical book below, or digital copy from Amazon.

Read what our customers have to say...
I wanted a way to teach my children how they should talk about how they feel whether that be with me or another safe person, I also want to understand if they are perhaps feeling something and just not telling me. After chatting with Claudia from Shining Light I decided to invest in the beautiful worry dolls to start that process. My daughter has already started telling the doll how she feels from bad dreams to the days she has had at school and in turn has started relaying back to me what she is telling “her doll”.
We also spend some time together, whenever we can, going through the affirmation cards, she loves the pictures and bright colours and she loves picking one that she feels most closest to for the day.
Thanks Shining Light for helping start this open emotion-led conversation journey with my children.
