How I Came To This Work

My path here was not theoretical.

In my twenties, I was deeply anxious, disconnected from my body, and struggling with addiction. A yoga class offered a glimpse of something different — a moment of being fully present in my body — but it took time before I was ready to listen.

Even as a CPA with financial knowledge, I was terrified of my own bank account. The same patterns that fueled addiction were alive in my relationship with money: avoidance, shame, scarcity, and a persistent sense of not being enough.

Getting sober over two decades ago marked a profound shift. From there, healing unfolded slowly and imperfectly — through yoga, coaching, somatic work, and learning how to bring presence to the most ordinary parts of life, including money.

What I discovered was this: the healing was never separate. Body wisdom and money wisdom grew together. What changed wasn’t just my behavior, but my relationship with myself.

That understanding deepened as I became a mother. The healing I was doing for myself became a way of interrupting old cycles — including money trauma — and choosing a different legacy. This work became not just personal, but purposeful.

How I Hold This Work

Over the years, my body has been my most reliable guide — through chronic pain, living with MS, parenting, business-building, and ongoing healing. When things felt unclear or overwhelming, my body consistently knew when to rest, when to act, and when to seek support.

That is the orientation I bring to my work.

I don’t offer quick fixes, rigid frameworks, or externally imposed answers. I offer a steady, relational space where insight can become integration, and where women learn to trust themselves again — in their bodies, their choices, and their lives.

Sometimes money is the doorway. Sometimes it’s work, relationships, or transition. What we are always tending is the same thing: your capacity to stay present with yourself and act from that place.
