Becoming Well Adorned

DSC_4705.jpg

My passion for health, wellness, and a life well adorned is at the core of who I am. Through my journey I have learned that self-care and self-love allows us to be in our fullest power and potential. By functioning from a place of highest consciousness, we show up for all the parts of our life – partnerships, parenthood, careers, and friendships in our fullest, most inspiring, loving, and authentic way. Unfortunately, the demands of our lives often strip away our sense of pleasure and owning our desire, I know this because it happened to me. The good news is that it does not have to be that way. I am here to help you identify what it is you want and get you there much faster than it took me!

I am here to meet you where you are and from there, we will co-create a program together that is sustainable and achievable. We will make meaningful change in your life and that journey will be a deep dive inward setting goals, identifying your personal values, examining what nourishes you on and off your plate, and rewiring your way of thinking and acting. I will hold you not only accountable, but I will also be your cheerleader to hold your hand as you cross the finish line.

From a young age I have been a truth seeker in pursuit of living in alignment. Despite having an innate sense that there was a better way to live my life I contorted myself to meet the needs of my external environment. Of course, I didn’t know that then, but I can look back now with clarity and see this from my journey. I feel so much compassion for my young self, knowing what I know now. Much of my personal healing work has been around food, lifestyle, and repatterning behaviors, thoughts, and feelings.

A defining moment and my introduction to coaching occurred shortly after the birth of my third child. The pregnancy and birth itself were challenging and recovery was hard. I had three children in four years, literally ran a marathon less than a year after giving birth and didn’t know what it meant to slowdown. I hit a wall really hard burning the candle on both ends. I woke up one day feeling numb, alone, and scared.  There were signs all along that I was headed for a breakdown, but I ignored them.  As a highly sensitive person being numb and not feeling like myself was the scariest part.  The pace of city living, lack of self-care rituals that I teach and embody today, putting everyone else’s needs first, and not supporting my body with the right food and nutrients broke me.

As I found my footing slowly, I arrived on the other side, with so much awareness around self-love and self-care. It was the breakthrough after the breakdown.  In order for me to show up for all the people, parts, and roles in my life my tank needed to be full not only with what I nourished myself with on my plate but off my plate too. 

I took this organic and natural part of who I am as a calling to a higher purpose … one that I feel privileged and honored to be able to do. I am grateful for every interesting twist and turn because it has brought me exactly where I am meant to be now, doing work I love, live and share it from the heart, mind, body, and soul.
