My Story…
As a life coach, I've walked a path paved with challenges and triumphs, each experience shaping me into the guide I am today. My journey began amidst the shadows of emotional neglect in childhood. Growing up, I learned to navigate the waters of self-doubt and insecurity, but little did I know, these struggles would become the foundation of my resilience and my sense of empathy, attunement to others and personal growth.
My first major life transition came with a career change. Dissatisfied with the corporate grind of financial advising that stifled my creativity and passion, I took a leap of faith into the unknown. It was a terrifying yet liberating decision—one that ultimately led me to discover my true calling as both an educator and life coach.
Amidst the chaos of career upheaval, I found solace in love. Marriage brought its own set of joys and challenges, and while it was a relationship built on mutual support and understanding, there were elements we were never able to ignite and grow. This chapter of my life finally came to a close after twelve years of marriage around the same time as the devastating loss of my father. Grief engulfed me, my reflections deepened, my internal knowing grew stronger and I made the decision to restart the second half of my life and in doing so I unearthed a newfound strength I didn't know I had.
Becoming a mother was a transformative experience, one that brought boundless love and immeasurable joy into my life. Yet, it also tested my resilience in ways I never imagined. Balancing the demands of motherhood with my career, my marriage, my identity and my own wounds was no easy feat, but it taught me the importance of self-care, setting boundaries and how to shift my energies to focus on what I wanted versus focusing on what felt impossible.
On a personal level, my journey from an unhealthy and overwhelmed mother and teacher to a marathon runner epitomized the power of perseverance. Each step of the process of becoming a runner was an opportunity to employ the strength within my own mind and was a testament to my determination to push past my limits and conquer the seemingly impossible.
Through every twist and turn, I've emerged stronger and more resilient than before. My journey—from the depths of emotional neglect to the heights of personal triumph—has equipped me with the empathy and insight to guide others through their own transformative journeys. As a life coach, I am not just a beacon of hope but a living testament to the transformative power of resilience, growth mindset and self-discovery.
I am so excited to work along side you as you do the work to create the life that you know is possible.
