‘My Story
The turning point for me came when our 17 year old son, Trevor, died by suicide in January of 2012. Until then, I really thought I was “happy”. I was doing everything I thought I was “supposed” to do.
My husband and I had been married for about 20 years, and had 4 beautiful children. We had 2 professional careers, and loved to travel with our kids.
It wasn't until Trevor died that I realized I was living by a checklist. I was hiding parts of me that I felt were “wrong”.
I judged the desires for things I felt didn't fit with the religious upbringing I experienced. I judged myself for questioning what the truth was about my life.
I was repressing the part of me that was all about dreaming big and having fun.
After I experienced the grief of losing our son, I decided I wanted to create a better life for myself. I knew that happiness was possible. I wanted to believe I was allowed to create a life I wanted to live.
I became a Certified Life Coach so that I could leave my career as a CPA and coach other Moms who had lost children. I wrote a book about my story, and felt good that at least Trevor's death hadn't been in vain.
Yet, there was still a disconnect with my soul's desires.
I felt like I was pretending my way through life. Showing up in Church and with friends and in my marriage as the person I thought others wanted me to be. Pretending to believe the same things my Church community believed.
In 2019 I found Human Design.
I also found that some of the things I was repressing, were actually gifts I'm here to experience and teach to others. I started to allow myself to embrace who I truly am.
It was through coaching with spiritual mentors and teachers that I was able to fully process and release my need to live inside a box of rules.
I allowed myself to question, to learn and to wonder.
It was during my recent work with EFT training that I finally felt free to express the full truth of what I believe about religion and my life.
To finally help me release ALL of the “should's” I was carrying around from my fundamentalist religious upbringing, I finally sent a letter to my parents and siblings in January of 2022 so I could free myself to hold space for others who are experiencing a faith crisis or religious transition.
Are you ready to uncover and be seen as who you are designed to be?
My Beliefs
Everyone is here for a unique purpose.
We get to create our own rules.
No other person has the authority to tell us how we have to live in order to be loved by God.
We are worthy and valuable for being here, in this life, just as we are today.
We can have different belief systems, and still be friends!
My Approach
I use the tools of Human Design, thought models, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), manifestation and other coaching methods I have experienced myself, and have been trained in to help my clients create a life they design, and choose the values and beliefs they feel are true for them.
I help them get to know themselves at a deep level, and accept and love all their parts. I help them create the life they desire.
My program includes Life Purpose readings, online learning programs and retreats.
