The road to now

Before I was a mother, a certified life coach and doula or a community leader…

I was a seeker.

 

A seeker of truth, of healing, of deeper meaning.

I’ve always been drawn to the edges where clarity meets chaos, where growth begins in discomfort, and where real transformation takes root.

 

At 17, I left my rural Alberta hometown chasing more.

I built a life in the city through grit, grace, and a fire that didn’t burn out, it evolved.

 

From leading sales in my family’s business to opening my own personal training studio in 2009, I’ve always known how to move people, physically, emotionally, and energetically.

 

But my real work was shaped through lived experience.

 

Burnout.

Body image struggles.

Motherhood.

Entrepreneurship.

Heartbreak.

Reinvention.

 

Each season brought me back to one truth:

real strength isn’t about pushing harder

it’s about coming back into alignment.

 

Today, that’s the work I guide others through.

 

My coaching lives at the intersection of grounding and rising.

I support people navigating transition, whether you’re healing after emotional rupture, realigning your life or career, training at a high level, or preparing to give birth.

 

This isn’t surface level support.

It’s nervous system aware, root deep recalibration for your mind, body, energy, and direction.

My work is shaped not only by lived experience, but by formal education, professional training, and years of supporting people through transformation, transition, healing, performance, and personal growth.

 

My training includes:

  • a college diploma in Fitness and Nutrition from Northern Alberta Institute of Technology (NAIT)

  • professional life coach training through Rhodes Wellness College

  • training aligned with International Coaching Federation (ICF) coaching principles and competencies

  • certifications and experience as a doula

  • experience in movement coaching, nervous system support, behavior change, wellness support, and client-centered coaching

My approach is highly relational, personalized, and grounded in whole-person support rather than one-size-fits-all coaching.

I believe sustainable transformation happens when we stop forcing ourselves to become someone else and begin reconnecting with who we already are underneath the noise, pressure, and disconnection.

I’m here to remind you:

you’re not lost you’re becoming.

And you don’t have to do it alone.
