I’m a persistent problem solver and I don’t settle for suffering through life (there is way too much magic, beauty and love to experience in this life).

In the face of infertility, cystic acne, divorce, and every day stress I have never given up on healing my body and moving though tough times with my health and happiness intact.

Thanks to my persistence (which usually looks like a TON of research) I healed my infertility and my acne. I navigated a divorce and came out stronger and healthier. And, as life throws curveball after curveball at me I feel more and more at ease (sounds like a paradox..I know).

I now teach my clients how to build in healthy comfort habits and to develop stress mastery (which still includes the reduction of stressors and management techniques). I help them to feel at ease and have a sense of freedom. I help them to focus on their purpose in life and on how to cultivate meaning. I help them experience stress (because we all know it isn’t going anywhere) and, instead of it derailing their health and creating further suffering, they come out healthier, stronger and happier in spite of it.

I believe we are here to create and live out our unique life purpose and that we need strong bodies & minds to do so. We need to know how to move through life’s ebbs and flows of stress and not be ruined by them. I believe we can all get better at stress and that let’s us do the fun and rewarding work of life.

I also believe that when we are able to master stress we don’t negatively respond and hurt ourselves or others. And, in turn we have a positive ripple effect on the world.
