About Me
My story started years ago, in the throws of diapers, sleepless nights, and a seemingly never-ending messy house. As my children grew, my parenting challenges seemed to grow. My spicy children were tough- and I felt ill-equipped to support them. I knew what kind of parenting I believed in but found it hard to apply in real life. Over the years, through reading and research, things started to change.
The real shift for me started to happen around 2017-2020 when I learned about emotional and wellness tools for myself, through Life Coaching work, and started applying that to me and my children. Parenting 4 kids (2 of them Neurodiverse) has its share of ups and downs, and helping parents navigate these same things, from toddlers to teens to young adults, has become my passion. These emotional wellness tools that I teach help everyone- at any age- and I love to help others find peace, joy, and harmony in their lives (with a good dose of crazy, messy and wild- which is part of the journey too). I have a BA in Psychology, a few Life Coaching certifications and a special interest in somatic work, shame (Brené brown fan!) and intuition.
