I AM HERE TO HELP YOU REGAIN CALM, JOY,
AND FIND YOURSELF
IN THE BUSY-NESS OF LIFE.
I have dedicated myself to helping women thrive by slowing down, learning to rest, and hearing the inner voice.
For the past decade I have helped women and mothers remember themselves, stop worrying, find more patience, and be more present.
Now I am doing that as an Ayurvedically inspired coach.
I blend Ayurveda and yoga with my years of experience and tools gained as a psychotherapist to help you find calm and enjoy your life.

I am a self-proclaimed high achiever and chronic over-achiever….in recovery.
I have lived most of my life pushing to be better and constantly working to figure how to be the best in anything I do.
I am a persistent researcher, reader, and seeker.
I have two Master’s Degrees, was admitted to a PsyD program when my son was one week old (thank God I declined), multiple certifications, and have read HUNDREDS of books.
My mind spins with ideas and my body is always moving.
I gave myself 100% to my kids and my clients leaving my emotional and physical health on the back burner.
I didn’t know how to say no (boundaries anyone??), take care of myself, or REST.
Striving and doing was number 1 in my life.
I (still) have a hard time stopping as my mind is filled with 10,000 things that “need” to be done.
However, all of my efforts often didn’t feel good enough. I was always just waiting for someone to see through my BS to see who I really am….inept, unworthy, and scared.
I ended up with anxiety, insomnia, and intense adrenal fatigue.
I also wasn’t actually achieving anything I wanted to achieve or feeling what I wanted to feel from those achievements.
The thought, “Well, maybe when I do this training then I will really FEEL like good coach and therapist” frequented my brain.
I found that no matter how much I sought knowledge, money, and achievement NOTHING would fill that giant God shaped hole in my being that said, “I am not lovable or worthy.”
Until I found (after lots of seeking, lol) that “Yes, I am worthy” just because I EXIST and breathe.
I am worthy just because I am here, walking around this earth.
My breath is proof that I am in constant union with the Divine.
I have learned boundaries, managing my mind so it doesn’t run me ragged, the importance of rest, self-kindness, how to be curious about what is happening in my life, forgiveness, taking responsibility, and BEST of all…learned how to stop and listen to what I really need to feel what I want to feel in my life…plus so much more.
I can teach you all of these things too.
