Years ago, when I transitioned from college to the ‘real world,’ I became caught up in nonstop socializing, fun and work, never knowing how to say no. Eventually, I started getting sick every other week and simple tasks like getting off the couch to do laundry felt genuinely impossible - I was burnt out. Determined to change, I became an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach, where I learned how caring for my body and nervous system is the foundation to supporting my mental health and mindset. 

Around the same time, I found myself stuck in a relationship I couldn’t seem to leave, even though I knew I should. This led me to start therapy, where I began uncovering my patterns of codependency, people-pleasing, and empathic tendencies—a four year journey that transformed my self-awareness. But when heartbreak from a different relationship later left me in a fog of depression, anxiety, and confusion, I realized that understanding alone wasn’t enough. I craved more than awareness—I wanted to truly FEEL better and embody the confident, empowered version of myself I aspired to be.

That’s when divine intervention stepped in. My friend convinced me to try a breathwork session, and in just one hour, everything shifted. I walked in heavy with sadness and walked out feeling 1,000 pounds lighter, with joy, clarity, and the profound realization that my heartbreak was guiding me to discover my true, soul self. The wildly transformative shift breathwork gave me, made me instantly obsessed with its power and led to eventually getting trained as a breathwork guide myself. 

During my heartbreak, I became overwhelmingly curious WHY I was so devastated from a breakup – the level of pain I felt didn’t seem normal. Through lots of subconscious meditation, journaling and breathwork I discovered that the reason I was so devastated, all traced back to my level of self-worth. I was ‘getting’ all of my validation from my relationship and once it was gone, so was my feeling of worthiness. After this realization, I wholeheartedly committed to building up my self-worth so that I never again would rely on it coming from an external source so heavily.
  
Through my own journey in getting to know myself on a profoundly deep level, I have gained genuine confidence in understanding who I am underneath my patterning, conditioning and thoughts. I’ve spent years learning to differentiate my ego (mind) from my true, soul self. I am SO deeply passionate about helping others understand themselves deeper than they ever have, so that they too can start to validate themselves and navigate life with direction, confidence and clarity.
