It has been a long, beautiful (at times, trying) walk home to myself.  The path became a lot easier once I understood I was not a problem to be fixed, but a person who deserved to be seen, heard, and held as I quieted the noise of generational and societal programming and remembered how to hear the quiet, steady whispers within. When I finally started trusting my heart (instead of the relentless voice of my inner critic) everything changed. Not instantly, not perfectly, but gradually and honestly. 

I once sought these practices as a way to get out of my body and away from myself. Over time, they taught me how to actually be in it. Yoga, meditation, and breathwork became tools not for running from, but returning to myself, again and again.

As it turns out, healing is not about escaping our pain, nor arriving at some elusive place free of difficulty, but about learning how to be where we are now, how to accept, and eventually love ourselves, even with all our flaws, fears, and doubts. The thread through all of this is the transformation of pain into purpose, and shame into something closer to self-trust. This path isn’t easy, but it’s real and it’s possible.

I’ve since immersed myself in the study of these practices, but more importantly, I’ve lived them.  And that’s really the foundation of my work. I have studied and trained in different systems —  Parts Work, intergenerational trauma, Wayfinder Life Coach Training, masculine and feminine archetypes, nervous system regulation, intuitive space-holding, the Maiden/Mother/Crone framework, ceremonial breathwork, as well as the many initiations that came through my own life: navigating autoimmune illness, debilitating depression, identity loss and, perhaps most significantly— mothering my own four children while simultaneously re-mothering myself. 

I synthesize these systems and life experience into a grounded, supportive coaching container that holds people in their unique, emergent, and sacred process of being human. I believe the answers we’re searching for have always been within us, and I feel honored to walk alongside others as they navigate their way home to inner connection and self-trust.

I assure you there is no other way you need to arrive in these spaces besides exactly as you are.  And whenever you feel ready, I am here to welcome you, walk beside you, and reflect the wisdom within you until you can see, hear, and feel it on your own.
