I’ve been through the ups and downs of life and know that from time to time, you need a little extra help; a little extra push to get you through whatever phase you are stuck in.
I’m just a gal from Kansas City (I’ll always be a die-hard Chiefs fan) who loves Southern manners. I moved to Chicago to attend Loyola University and junior year I met my husband - who I married after 3 weeks. Yep, not 3 months, 3 weeks. But, hey! Here we are 12+ years later, happy with 2 beautiful children. I love music, traveling, and living in the moment. My goal is to bring out a sense of fulfillment, peace, and happiness to each one of my clients.

The Helper:

Protagonist:
Natural-born Leader, Full of passion and charisma, Reaching out and inspiring others to achieve and to do good in the world
Throughout my career in higher education, I’ve advised college students on making decisions on their next degree, created training programs to help prepare employees for success, and throughout my years in leadership I've coached my direct reports to be the best. As you can see, the key element here is a desire to help people be the best they can be and help them to reach their full potential. That’s what my heart wants more than anything.
Specifically, my desire is to see women like you overcome those doubts and limiting beliefs that keep you stagnant.
I know how much you need it because…
I was independent & egotistical. I listened to my inner hater. I felt overwhelmed, lost and stuck at a fork in the road.
I became self-aware & my confidence began to grow. I could acknowledge the lies my inner hater was telling me. I began to trust & took the leap of investing in a Life Coach.

I am more fulfilled & at peace. I found my voice & argue with my inner hater. I love my imperfections. I trust my intuition to guide me.

...But I was going through a rough patch. I was a working mom of two babies under 2, had post-partum depression, was watching my dad's health quickly decline, trying to juggle all the things. was overwhelmed and couldn’t self-heal anymore. I needed a non-judgemental ear to listen to me, to help me find my voice again, and to lift me up like I’ve been doing for others for so many years. Surprisingly, my life coach helped me through the loss of my daddio and lead me to find my legacy and my purpose, talk back to my inner hater and find confidence and courage in my pursuit of bliss, peace, and fulfillment. I learned that I don’t have to be perfect or have all the answers - that being myself is enough. And once you find that power inside yourself, you truly want it for every woman out there.
Not to mention, if I’m going to talk the talk, I need to walk the walk. Life coaching is a giant step into my own dreams and I want my children to see me make those big moves so that they will have the courage to pursue their passions as well.
Ok, maybe that’s a little presumptuous of me, but it's kind of my goal: to make you feel like I’ve got your back, to make you feel like you can accomplish those big dreams, and to make you feel seen and heard; to help you learn a little self-care and self-love.
Juggling too many balls with work and family?
Someone with no time to take care of yourself?
Someone who wants to be a calmer, less reactive parent?
A mom trying to find your identity and who you want to be?
Feeling like you are meant for more but have no direction?
If your answer is “Yes”, that’s a good thing! It means you’re not alone. It means I get you. It means I can help. Just because you’re a perfectionist doesn’t mean you can’t reach your full potential, I’m living proof. It just means you need to learn how to stop holding yourself back and I can teach you how!
Feel peaceful and balanced, despite what is going on in your life
Feel joy in parenting again
Reconnect with your partner
Discover confidence in your worth, clarity in your purpose, and courage to be the person you always dreamed of being
I embody the person I’ve always wanted to be. I am enough. I am a good mother and a good wife. And now I'm living out my purpose!
If this sounds like you and you need someone that's been there, reach out! I'm here to listen and guide you to a Blissful Life.
