ABOUT ME

I was the stereotype - unhappy wife, overwhelmed mother, empty woman with no idea of when she disappeared. I experienced marital betrayal and emotional abuse. I hit what I call the WTF point; I felt discarded, passive and insignificant. I spent years healing and rebuilding myself, from the inside out. The blessing of those experiences is that they were the spark to the fire that burns in me, today: I know what it’s like to question what life is supposed to be, to think I fucked it all up, and discover that, in spite of (or because of) it all, I could still become happy and confident.

I learned how to undo the insecurity I felt, breaking generational patterns, and found within me a powerful leader, not only for others but of myself. In creating a new foundation of self respect, I also rebuilt my relationship with myself. I defined and created the success I want: I am a loving mom with a beautiful relationship with each of my children; I have re-discovered myself as a woman, with lots of joy and passion; and have enjoyed a successful career in the fitness industry. As I learned how to do these things and take control of my life, I got to teach other women to do the same, and truly found my purpose. My focus became mentoring women to find their powerful inner leader and reestablish a beautiful relationship with themself.

The accomplishment that I’m most proud of is that my children are proud of me. They had front row seats as their mother grew from defeated and confused into the best version of herself that she could be, and learned that they also can rise from anything that life throws at them.
