This is one of those full-circle moments! The kind where my heart’s been whispering something for years, and now it’s finally here.
I have to start by thanking Jim. He's supported me through all the months of classes and trainings. He's cooked dinners for me, he's cleaned and he's given me space when I needed it. I am one lucky girl!
For years I've told myself I wanted to be a life coach and for years, I kept putting it off. But the desire never left. It kept showing up — in quiet moments or deep conversations, in the way people would open up to me and then say, “I don’t know why I’m telling you all this, but...”
A couple years ago something started waking up inside me. I wrote sometime last year about this awakening that I was going through. I was becoming more spiritual and yearning for something. I just wasn't sure what it was. I started studying the Yoga Sutras and getting more into the psychology of yoga. Then I started taking courses on Positive Psychology. Then one day I realized I wanted to become a certified life coach. So, I made the plunge and committed to getting my Life Coach Certification. Looking back, I don't think I had an "ah ha" moment that started me down this path. It all just naturally fell into place. The right people were in my life and the opportunities to keep pushing continued to present themselves to me.
Now, I am fully certified! I worked hard to get here. I am still working a full time job so everything I did was after hours. I even had to take Zoom calls while we were in Southeast Asia. The funny thing is, I don't regret one moment of it! This is what was awakening in me and I am filled with gratitude!
And I know — this was always what I was meant to do.
Why am I doing this?
I created this space for the woman who’s done all the “right” things — built the career, the life, the image — but still feels a little off inside. Like something’s missing… even though everything looks great on the outside. You feel like you've lost your spark. Successful on the outside, not so successful on the inside.
Success without fulfillment is NOT success.
If you’ve ever felt that quiet ache, that nudge that says “there has to be more” —
I see you. I’ve been you.
And I want you to know: That “more” you’re longing for? It’s already inside you.You haven’t lost your spark — it’s just waiting for you to come back to it.
That’s what my work is about.It’s not about fixing you — because you’re not broken.It’s about guiding you back to your truth, your light, your soul.
I Want to Help Heal the World, One Spark at a Time 🔥
I truly believe that when a woman reconnects with herself — when she feels grounded, lit up, and free — it changes everything. Her energy shifts. Her relationships deepen. Her work becomes more purposeful. And the ripple effect is powerful!
We don’t need more hustle or pressure. We need more peace. More presence. More heart.And that’s the kind of world I want to help build — one coaching session, one breakthrough, one soul awakening at a time.
So… here I am. Dream realized. Heart wide open.
If you’re craving something deeper — if you’re ready to stop going through the motions and start living in alignment with who you truly are — I’d love to walk that journey with you.
This is your invitation. To rise. To remember. To reconnect.
You don’t need to start over. You just need to start inward.
With love and deep gratitude,
