Hey friend!

Are you struggling in a certain area in motherhood, marriage, or life in general? If so, you aren’t alone. This gig is hard, and we aren’t meant to figure it all out alone. I tried to do that for a long time, and when I was 35, I found myself face down on the floor, completely undone, begging God to take me. I thought my husband and three kids (ages 11, 9, & 7 at the time) were better off without me.

I couldn’t manage my emotions, felt out of control, and the guilt, shame, and despair of not being able to affect change in my life was overwhelming. I tried praying everything away, which didn’t work and only made me feel worse because I was already believing some pretty lousy stories about my worth, enoughness, purpose, and loveability— which I later learned was all tied to my childhood sexual abuse and other family trauma. Feeling like a failure as a “Christian” woman (who has since deconstructed from religion) only added to my misery. So, on this desperate night, I cried out to God from the depths and asked for me and, thus, my entire family to be put out of our misery.

God didn’t bail me out…at least not the way I wanted because I’m still here! Thank you, God. But God did bail me out the way I needed. After I woke up from my dark night of the soul and realized I didn’t get my wish, I dragged my broken self into church the next morning. The first person I saw was a family friend who changed my life forever. After collapsing in his arms and becoming inconsolable, he pressed a business card in my hand and said, “This is a dear friend of mine. Call him. He will help you.”

Thus began what is now been a 19-year journey of re-membering who I am: LOVE. The healing, unraveling, recalibrating, transforming, unlearning, descaling, and many other ‘ings’ continue to illuminate Truth. After all the talk therapy, meditation, energy healing, hypnotherapy, and countless other healing modalities and practices I’ve incorporated into my life,  the most important lesson I’ve learned (from the late, great Wayne Dyer) is when you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.

And you don’t have to wait for a crisis or tragedy or dark night in your life to experience such a shift. Yes, those experiences work. Many transformational moments came on the backside of a trauma or crisis that have led me to deep healing over the years beyond my dark night on the floor. But we don’t need to wait for those crises to force us into change. We can make a conscious decision to change our lives right now, at this moment. LOVE is our superpower to heal, shift, and thrive.

Our bodies are miraculous, and LOVE is the superpower guiding us to heal ourselves–emotionally, mentally, spiritually, and physically. And the cool thing is, we kickstart these miracles with our mind because All is Mind, Source is Infinite Intelligent Consciousness.

In 2021, I was able to wean off my Lamictal medication for a bipolar diagnosis after 13 years. Turns out I didn’t have bipolar, but an unregulated trauma response. My body healed herself from all the trauma trapped inside me that was convoluting how I saw myself and the world. I did a lot of hard, intentional work, and it was worth every bit of it. Because today I’m “free.” Free from the box I was “believed” I was trapped in for so long. A box filled with limiting beliefs and shady stories about my value and worth. Today, I’m free to be my authentic OG self, stand in my truth, and use the tools I’ve learned to keep working through the inevitable struggles (learning opportunities) that come our way.

And did I mention that my body also just healed herself from a gnarly dairy allergy that manifested in 2018 after experiencing months of intense emotional stress? Well, she did, and I’m here for all of it. Here’s a link to the story. Since then, I’ve also healed from a gluten allergy, red meat allergy, and lots of other digestive issues. In November of 2023, my body healed herself of Hashimoto Thyroiditis. An autoimmune dis-ease that I agreed to and took medicine for since 2005. After 28 years and doctors saying it was impossible for me to go off meds, I’m off meds. I’m perfectly healthy. And the healings keep coming because I am taking care of my inside world–my mind and heart.

Now it’s my time to give back and share all I’ve learned so others can experience the same freedom. So others can consciously create a life that they love and love themselves the way they deserve.

I have endless love to share and wisdom to pass on from my experiences. I’ve learned from some incredible humans, not to mention hundreds of books, podcasts, documentaries, practices, and modalities that continue to help me be a better me and “we.” You can view the toolbox I created with all these resources on my sister site, Peaceful Change Begins With Me.

Yes. I’m obsessed with being a healthier me.

Why?

Because I love my kids, hubby, family, friends, and the world THAT much.  I’m grateful for this life and want to squeeze every ounce of joy from the experience and spread it around.

I want the same for YOU. We are all One, after all. Everything we do for ourselves, we do for others. Everything we do for others, we do for ourselves.
