A bit about me personally
I am deeply familiar with the joys and challenges of family and relationships, having grown up in a large family with nine siblings in a strict religious household. I married at 19 and became a mother a couple of years later. While I have three wonderful daughters, I also faced the heartbreaking loss of two little angels—one through miscarriage and the other stillborn.
Life is a journey filled with ups and downs offering opportunities for love amidst the pain of loss. Things often don't unfold as expected. I am here to support you during your tough times. Like many of you, I have faced battles within my family, including cancer struggles, the loss of loved ones, mental health challenges, addiction, divorce, the complications of family run business, and the trials of teen pregnancy.
The tools I have learned to confront difficult issues, heal, grow, and embrace life, I will teach you. If you feel alone, disrespected, unheard, or unseen in your relationships or work, let me show you how to foster belonging, connection, and authenticity.
Like many of you, the beauty of nature, animals, and people is my source of healing and strength. Together, let's discover your strengths, and I will inspire you to honor yourself, live in alignment with your values, and cultivate meaningful connections with others.
