My journey to personal transformation
I have endless curiosity for the human experience on this journey of life.
The transformation I have personally experienced through conscious presence allows me to hold a safe, authentic space for others to find their way inward to their truest self. This deeper connection to ourselves and each other is what life's all about!
Depression cycles and self-abandonment took hold of my life at an early age. Through therapy, supportive mentors, and both Conscious Life Coaching and the Enneagram, I learned how to recognize destructive and dysfunctional patterns that had kept me trapped, numb, and small.
Deconstructing belief systems and deep self-reflection have been my life’s work toward an untethered, liberated version of my life. Specifically, unpacking perfectionism, privilege, and inner child pain has unlocked the cage I lived in. I believe that power, authenticity, and vitality come from connection—first with ourselves and then with others. I believe we cannot offer what we don’t have. I believe that pain and discomfort are our greatest teachers, awakening us to our truest essence.
To me, the essence is connection. That’s everything!
It embodies the essential presence, the consciousness, and becoming the change agent for ourselves. If we’re existing in the future or the past, we can’t access our power! Being embodied in presence allows us to connect to our centers of mind/body/emotional intelligence. That’s where we find peace, satiation, and greater ease. Homeostasis. The suffering no longer exists. We can take on anything!
If you feel disconnected from yourself, from your truest essence—If you feel that you’re not in alignment with what you actually want, desire, and need—I hope you’ll come and see me.
That true essence is not outside of yourself—it’s INSIDE. It’s home. It’s where we find our vitality, intention, authenticity, and wholeness! Only you can find it and unlock your own life transformation. And I’m here to help you. :)
