My Story

I grew up in nearby Lake Elsinore, where I endured a turbulent childhood and had to grow up early. In 2000, I embarked on a new chapter to escape the chaos, and went to forge a family of my own. However, the winds of fate shifted dramatically when my husband was stationed in Camp Pendleton during the tumultuous era of 9/11. Amidst the challenges of  two broken people trying to make it work, the relationship ended.

During this period, I weathered storms that tested the very core of my resilience. Following the dissolution of my second marriage, I made the courageous decision to pack up and return to Twentynine Palms, seeking solace and a fresh start. Yet, my journey was fraught with more trials in a new relationship, as I battled against the shadows of domestic, spousal, and narcissistic abuse, and wrestled with the demons of addiction.

Determined to rewrite my narrative, I embarked on a path of healing and self-discovery, fueled by an unwavering commitment to embrace positivity and empowerment. It was during this transformative journey that I found solace and joy in the spotlight of community theater, where the stage became my sanctuary and the art of performance my catharsis. Today, I stand as a beacon of hope for those who may be navigating similar struggles, offering a message of courage, strength, and the unwavering belief that no matter how dark the night may seem, the dawn always breaks, bringing with it the promise of a new beginning.

My coaching style is rooted in my own journey of resilience and transformation. Having weathered storms and battled demons, I understand the depths of adversity and the importance of finding inner strength. My approach is nurturing and empathetic, grounded in genuine understanding of life's struggles, while also using humor and levity to deal with tough situations. I empower individuals to embrace their authenticity and rewrite their narratives, guiding them through their own paths of healing and self-discovery. My coaching is real and authentic, offering support and encouragement while holding space for vulnerability and growth. I believe in the power of human connection and the transformative impact of reclaiming one's power. As a beacon of hope, I offer a message of courage and unwavering belief in the potential for renewal and new beginnings, no matter how daunting the challenges may seem.
