“Passion is the bridge that takes you from pain to change.”

Turning Pain into passion

- Frida Kahlo

In 2010, I started experiencing debilitating symptoms due to Lyme disease. It was devastating to experience such a dramatic shift in my health. I had been an active mother of one boy, expecting my second child when I began having vertigo, heart palpitations, debilitating muscle weakness, fatigue, daily panic attacks, heart palpitations, and intermittent hearing loss. I spent years working with a team of physicians, physical therapists, herbalists and others during my journey and I wouldn’t be here today without the compassionate care I received from each and every one of them. 

This experience has encouraged me to turn my pain into passion. I learned a lot about Post Traumatic Growth and the positive psychological changes one can experience as a result of adversity. Overtime, I was able to focus on these positive changes and discovered my new passion of giving hope to those in need of guidance and support during their own healing journeys.

I know the importance of nourishing the mind, body and spirit and want to help you find purpose, inspiration and hope in the midst of your own health journey.

I BELIEVE IN:

Trusting your instincts, the power of compassion, healthcare equity, short emails, signs.

I'm NOT ABOUT:

Long lines, crowded spaces, negative self-talk, and anchovies.

YOU CAN FIND ME:

In the kitchen, on the sidelines cheering on my boys, practicing yoga, in the school pick-up line, organizing events for Ride Out Lyme, watching movies with my boys or daydreaming about future trips to Italy.

daily rituals

Morning affirmations, snuggles with my boys, long walks with Tucker

I have found that nutrition, clean eating, meditation and lifestyle shifts have had a profound impact on my health and I would love to help you find sustainable practices that will enhance your health and wellbeing as well! Whether you’re living with chronic illness, preparing for a big transition in your life or looking for someone to hold you accountable, I’m your girl!
