Hey There!

I  stumbled into my mindfulness practice by accident, you might say—

following a suggestion from my therapist to help recover from a messy divorce.

​

Exhausted physically, emotionally, and mentally,

and with little hope or expectation, I signed up for Yoga Teacher Training. 

​

To my surprise, the next four years became a season of transition and reflection...

I taught yoga full-time and dove deep into my personal practice. On my mat, I experienced a depth of inner calm unlike anything I’d ever known. Committing to a self-care routine allowed me to manage the fear and anxiety that had slowly overtaken my life.

​

Fast forward a year or two, life happened (because it always does).

My wheels were spinning, and I was going nowhere—

I felt STUCK!

Day after day, I fell short of my idealized perfection, dreading the thought that tomorrow would be just the same.

 

I felt lost & without purpose. I knew there was more to life—yet I had no idea where to find it.

​

In total shame and desperate for direction, I turned to a mentor.

She embodied strength, calmness, courage and authenticity —all the qualities I lacked and longed for.

​

Her advice continues to serve me well —  

 

"You can’t live in the present

until you release the past—

and there can be no future

until you are fully present.”

​

Words of wisdom finally settled within my soul; a pivotal moment that sparked my healing journey.

  

​

I had to get intentional about learning to let go of my past, releasing judgment & forgiving myself.

The process was slow and definitely not linear; healing takes time.​

 

I became motivated by a deep desire to understand who we are as humans.

​

• Why do we act and speak the way we do--especially under pressure?

• Why are we so terrified of being vulnerable and letting others see who we truly are?

• Why is it that courage is our key to freedom, yet we consistently choose comfort instead?

• And shame—don’t even get me started—why do we place so much value on what other people think of us?​

​

We are 100% imperfect humans. We are wired for connection & belonging, and we need a plan of ACTION (plus a great mentor) when things get tough, because  **NEWS-FLASH**  sooner or later, they eventually do!

 

Those life lessons I learned the hard way now play a central role in my work as a Wellness & Life Coach.

​

Whether you’re a little confused o r totally lost; whether you have a plan in mind or are taking a huge leap of faith, I want you to have everything you need to find deep fulfillment and live with real purpose.
