About me…

I was born into a world of go-go-go—setting goals and working hard to achieve them. As an overachiever, I experienced the benefits. I created the life I wanted, with a family, career with impact, and comfortable lifestyle.

At some point, I went into autopilot—a high achiever, exhausted with a tolerance to stress, no longer feeling the passion for life and my work that I once did.  I was alive in this mental program, yet asleep and numb at the same time.

The truth—I was scared to make changes. My passion and desires evolved, yet I was gripped to the comfort and security provided by my current reality. My body and spirit knew this— I felt depleted and uninspired—and my mind rationalized it with gratitude for all that I had and could provide others.

Then in 2020, the pandemic created a pause long enough for me to slow down. I reflected on what was draining me mentally, spiritually, and physically.   I blamed my job and the system in which I worked— but unconsciously my mind was running on a program of lack, feeling trapped.  Any attempts to find a way out was mental self-torture, seeking solutions from the same state of mind that made me feel trapped (‘analysis paralysis’ as it is accurately coined).

Then I found my path out.  I was guided by others to sit with the discomfort of unraveling limiting beliefs and feelings that no longer served me—which led me to see how my mental operating system was the trap.  I changed the story I was telling myself to one of freedom.  Decisions to align my life to my desires came effortlessly. I left my job, claimed full time at a Shenandoah cabin, and do what brings me joy and passion. I feel free, in effortless flow—and my life reflects this.

My passion is now holding space and guiding people on their unique inward journey.

My expertise is rooted in certifications for Core EnergyCoaching™, Energy Leadership™, Ceremonial Cacao Practitioner, Forest Reiki (Level 1&2). I mix this expertise with various forms of energy work as well as my own intuition. My professional work experience is 25 years of professional behavior change and organizational culture work, with a certification in The 4 Stages of Psychological Safety™, advanced trainings in facilitation, mindful leadership, and diversity, equity, and inclusion.  In the corporate setting, I also managed work programs on topics of employee engagement, respectful workplace, innovation, and sustainability.
