If life looks fine from the outside but feels unfulfilling on the inside, this page is for you.

Maybe you built everything you were supposed to want. The career. The stability. The responsible choices. And somewhere along the way, you lost the thread of who you actually are.

Maybe you have a dream that lives quietly in the back of your mind — one you've never fully said out loud because it feels too big, too late, or too much.

Maybe you're tired of waiting for the version of yourself who has it all figured out before you start living.

I see you. Because I was you.

My story isn't linear. It's a rewrite.

For most of my life, I was terrified to take risks.

I grew up in a chaotic, dysfunctional home — and because of that, chaos became comfortable. I spent my twenties and thirties doing what felt familiar and safe. I became an EMT. I got married. I checked the boxes I was told would complete my life.

Then I got divorced at 32 and became a single mom. And as hard as that was — it cracked me open in the best possible way.

I got into therapy. I started seeing the patterns I'd been living inside of. I started making different choices — slowly at first, then with more courage each time. And something surprising happened: every risk I took, even the ones that didn't go the way I planned, taught me to trust myself a little more.

Then something happened that I couldn't look away from. Someone close to me experienced a sudden, devastating loss — the kind that reminds you, without any gentleness, that none of us are promised tomorrow.

And I stopped waiting for someday.

At 40, I finally started asking myself what I actually wanted — not what I was supposed to want, not what would make me look successful, not what would make me more lovable or worthy in someone else's eyes.

What did I want?

The answer surprised me. And it kept getting bigger.

I went back to school and earned my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling — all while raising my daughter alone and running a business. I became a certified somatic practitioner and a personal trainer. I completed my yoga teacher training. I built something from nothing, over and over again, until I understood in my bones that I am capable of more than I was ever told.

And then, at 48, I did the most audacious thing yet.

I sold everything I owned. And I moved to Europe — alone, by choice, with my whole heart.

Not to run away. Not because my life was falling apart.

Because I finally believed I deserved to run toward something.

That's what I want for you.

This is why I do this work.

I know what it feels like to live a life that looks fine from the outside and feels hollow on the inside.

I know what it costs — in joy, in time, in self-respect — to keep waiting for permission that was never coming.

And I know what becomes possible when you finally stop waiting and start rewriting.

That's what coaching with me is about. Not a 10-step formula. Not a productivity system. Not someone telling you who to be.

It's about helping you hear yourself again — your real self, underneath all the noise of who you were told to be — and taking action from that place.

A little more about my background.

I bring a lot to this work — and I want you to know what that is, without it feeling like a résumé.

  • 20 years as an EMT — I know how to stay calm in chaos, and I know the body tells the truth before the mind catches up

  • B.S. in Dietetics and Certified Personal Trainer — through this work, I learned that the body and mind are never truly separate. To be genuinely healthy physically, you have to be healthy mentally and emotionally — and vice versa. That understanding shapes everything I do.

  • M.S in Clinical Mental Health Counseling — this gives me a deep understanding of the psychological roots of why we stay stuck. I chose not to pursue licensure because I found myself at odds with the traditional medical model of mental health, which often requires diagnosing what I believe are normal human responses to life experiences as disorders. I believe people aren't broken. They're often just living out of alignment with who they truly are — and that's what coaching addresses.

  • Certified Mind/Body Coach with training in Somatic Experiencing — I help you access the wisdom your body already holds

  • 200-hour Certified Yoga Teacher — movement, breath, and presence as tools for transformation

  • And most importantly: I've done my own work. I'm not teaching theory. I'm living this.

Please note: I am not a licensed therapist and do not provide therapy. Coaching is not a substitute for mental health treatment.

If something on this page made you exhale —

That feeling is worth paying attention to.

You don't need to have it all figured out. You don't need to be ready. You just need to be willing.

I'd love to be part of your rewrite.
