Our Clients Say

I'm deeply grateful that each day I wake up energized, savor the beauty of the healing outdoors, and enjoy my healthy relationship with food and myself.

​

It hasn't always been this way! Up until fifteen years ago, my daily routine consisted of harmful coping skills including overdosing on caffeine, sugar, and alcohol.

 

Every. single. day. 

​

I was a hot mess and my inner and outer life reflected it. I suffered from anxiety, brain fog, attention deficit disorder, exhaustion, achy joints, digestive issues, and disordered eating. 

​

I never felt smart enough, thin enough, lovable enough, or worthy. And my value was based on how many items I crossed off my “to do” list each day. 

​

The feelings of overwhelm and uncertainty were unbearable!

​

I hit rock bottom. My joint pain was debilitating so I couldn't lift much, bend down to engage with my daughters or work out any longer. And my stress was through the roof! Then, I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and was told to take Vioxx (a highly advertised anti-inflammatory drug). This didn’t sit well with me. I felt lost and disillusioned.

After all, I’d learned that stress, poor food choices, lack of self-care, and trauma were culprits of joint pain and brain fog. 

Rather than choosing medication, I started experimenting with whole foods, slowing down, meditation, and prioritizing myself. And giving up on the impossible task of being everything to everyone! 

​

With the support of my mentor and my dynamic weekly meditation group (20 remarkable women), I took baby steps to create new daily habits to prioritize my well-being which reduced stress and transformed my health. With consistent practice, I slowly shifted my happiness and well-being. It took a lot of patience, curiosity and self-compassion, and it has been worth it! 

 

Many times I wanted to give up, though knew that prioritizing myself and developing a system of healing, would allow me to offer my tools to my clients and community.  I'm not perfect so when I'm off balance, I pick myself back up and remember the remarkable choices in my tool box readily available.
 
Now, I'm committed to helping you overcome obstacles that get in the way of feeling your best. It doesn't matter where you are now and what your story is. No matter what, you can shift your mindset, show up for yourself, and I would be honored to guide you on your wellness journey toward radiant health.
