About Me
My Journey
I come from a wonderfully open-minded family, nestled on the fringes of Eugene, Oregon, back in the vibrant days of the late sixties hippie movement. Picture this: from an early age, my parents introduced me to a fascinating array of classes focusing on everything from honing intuition to self-healing, manifesting-dreams, and mastering the power of visualization. It was like diving into a treasure trove of secrets for living a fulfilling life. However, despite recognizing the potency of these practices, I kept them on the back burner for years.
Fast-forward to over 25 years later, and you'd find me in the corporate world, navigating the intricate operations of a Fortune 500 company. Managing multi-million dollar operations and coaching countless individuals toward success gave me immense joy, as I witnessed their growth and achievements. Coaching seemed to be my calling, and my unique knack for inspiring others shined through.
Yet, amidst the hustle and bustle of being a working mom, working 65 hours a week or more and enduring lengthy commutes, I didn't realize the toll it was taking on my health. It took an unexpected task—reading Arianna Huffington's "Thrive" and presenting on workplace wellness—to open my eyes to the reality of burnout and the wonders of meditation.
In a whirlwind, I immersed myself in the world of meditation and holistic healing, rediscovering the practices I had learned in childhood and exploring new avenues of energy healing. It was a journey that became deeply personal when I found myself grappling with fibromyalgia, high cortisol, adrenal fatigue, and sleep issues due to long-term stress. Through holistic approaches, I managed to overcome these ailments, unveiling the transformative power of natural healing.
With this newfound wisdom, I knew it was time to bid farewell to my corporate career and embrace my true passions: coaching and teaching. The insights I gained were too extraordinary to keep to myself – I wanted to share them with the world.
Today, I proudly wear many hats: certified Life Coach, Meditation Instructor, Stress Expert, Reiki Master, Energy Healer, Speaker, and all-around Spiritual Guru. It's my joy to impart this knowledge to you and to delve into topics like workplace wellness.
My journey has taught me that embracing the harmony of mind, body, and soul isn't just healing – it's empowering. It opens the door to a life brimming with boundless possibilities. And now, I'm here to help you craft the incredible life you've always dreamed of.
