About
I’m a thriving midlife woman. I’m happy, healthy, and here to guide you.
My dedication to a healthy lifestyle has brought me through challenges toward a life that I love! I am more energetic, more joyful, and more prosperous than ever. I can show you how to implement the same healthier habits in your life to reduce inflammation and boost every part of your health.
I am a mom of three living in Southern Texas. I enjoy reading, gardening and practicing yoga.
Midlife reinvention
Clarity, purpose, and a new way forward.
During a season of divorce and midlife changes, I found myself searching for a new direction. A coach told me I needed a "comeback story" and a "new identity." The idea was uncomfortable at first, but then I began to embrace the idea of reinvention.
As a single parent balancing a million responsibilities and wanting to prioritize my children as well as nutrition and wellness, I began seeking simpler and more manageable caring and healing strategies that fit into my busy lifestyle.
Eventually, I found purpose in sharing practical, thoughtful ways to support whole body wellness and help sensitive women navigate midlife changes.
My blog Feel Deeply, Gently Heal, Thrive Naturally and my cookbook, Shortcut Real Food: 20-minute meals, were born from my new situation. These creations reflect my evolution into a health coach, author, blogger, and healing yoga teacher for older women. My cookbook and I have even been featured on television, sharing practical wellness with a wider audience.
That coach's words were the catalyst. An expert often can see what we cannot see beyond. Let me be the catalyst in your life.
"Stepping onto a brand-new path is difficult, but not more difficult than remaining in a situation, which is not nurturing to the whole woman.”
