My Story

As far as I can remember, I’ve always been curious about people and their stories. Reflecting on it now, much of my curiosity probably came from a desire to know who I was.

Most of my life, I operated from a place of doing what was expected of me -- doing all the “right” things. By societal standards and to the people that knew me, it might seem that I had it figured out, but deep down something was missing.

What most people didn’t know was how I felt on the inside. I was living my life on autopilot. Behind my smile, I was riddled with self-doubt and stress. This was made worse by the guilt I felt in wanting more. I convinced myself that I had nothing to complain about and that I should just put my head down and be grateful for how lucky I had been. So, I kept pushing through each day, ignoring that little voice inside of me telling me that there was more to this life.  My self-worth was entirely wrapped up in how hard I worked and in putting others’ needs before mine. I kept this up for years until one day, I reached the point of complete burnout -- physically, emotionally, and mentally.  

As difficult as that time was, it was that experience that set me on my path to transformation. I chose to let go, trust I could make it, and face the fears and doubts. I had to go inward and start the journey toward self-discovery, self-love, and self-acceptance so that I could reconnect with my authentic self -- the one that has always been there, buried deep inside.

I share my story with you because I believe that it is in vulnerability that we can truly connect with others.  I’m so grateful for all my experiences because I can stand here today, deeply rooted in who I am and what brings me joy and purpose: supporting and coaching others who might feel that they have lost their way.

As your coach, I will remain a present guiding light, supporting you in finding the answers within yourself.
