My Journey

In my early adulthood I found myself struggling with patterns of behavior and beliefs that were counterproductive to the life I wanted for myself. Trying to fulfill unrealistic external expectations as a woman in our society became exhausting and unfulfilling.

I knew what I wanted: a healthy, stable relationship with my partner, a fulfilling, sustaining career and the ability to be at peace within myself and my relationships.

But these things all felt out of reach.

A researcher and listener by nature, I set out to learn everything I could about how people create change in their lives and why some people remain stuck.

My search led me to graduate school and an advanced degree in counseling. I’m still blown away by the effect my education and experiences have had on my own life and the lives of those I work with. Surrounding myself with information and perspectives from strong leaders in marginalized groups has helped me understand just how vital self-compassion and self-empowerment are.

As a wife and a mother of three children from ages 12-20, I have experienced many of the common struggles women face in our society. I’ve worked hard to gain insight into and overcome the expectations put on me and am leaning into what I’ve learned about living an empowered, congruent, meaningful life. I’m passionate about helping others do the same.
