I grew up with a good diet, my parents were avid gardeners and I was always active with sports and enjoyed life. My "WHY" is the love I have for my life and in my life. My children, family, gardening, cooking, being outdoors and hiking.

In 2012 I noticed my health started to take a turn. I was dealing with life circumstances that were stressful and I started putting on some weight and having health issues. By 2017 I was the heaviest I had ever been at almost 200 lbs. My body hurt all over, I was not sleeping well, I was bloated, moody, irritable, and stressed. Digestive issues, vitamin and mineral deficiencies and food sensitivities really started taking their toll. 2019 I got very sick with what we know as COVID 19 and Long Haulers syndrome. I couldn’t do the activities that I loved anymore because my heart rate would sky rocket and I would be out of breath.

I went to my Dr. thinking he could help me get on the right track…. He told me “You are just getting older and you need to exercise more and cut back on your eating…It’s just how things are as we age…”

THE WAKE UP CALL!! In 2021 I was finishing a hike and I collapsed with a heart attack.

I was scared and frustrated with the lack of direction and support. I refused to live the rest of my life going down a path that led to medication and lack of vitality. I knew there was a different path and I had the ability to heal myself!

I was able to focus my attention and use my education in nutrition, movement and meditation to create a plan that holistically healed my own gut issues, de-stressed my life, strengthened my immune system and alleviated the hormone fluctuations of menopause.

Within 6 months I had lost 50 lbs., had my life and energy back and I am now at my healthiest wieght and able to maintain it with good food and exercise.

I had created a simple and sustainable practice that supported my health and wellbeing and made the everyday choices easy. Eating beautiful and nutritious food, moving my body without creating stress and easing the stress, anger, frustration and anxiety.

Being able to incorporate my 20 years experience and knowledge in health and wellness has allowed me to offer my clients a simple and very well rounded approach to treating many of the diseases of our current time. Taking a holistic approach, I guide my clients step by step in goals that are attainable and co-create a life that is sustainable, healing and supportive so they can live their lives light, lean, focused and aligned.
