I’m a helper and a creative at heart who really just wants to have a little fun along the way.

I’ve been doing this work for over 15 years and something I’ve learned along the way is feelings are messy and hard, and when we embrace those feelings we were trying to not feel in the first place is when we actually can begin to move through them and let go.

Our bodies are full of wisdom of how to feel if we can get out of our own ways. Yoga can help us be grounded and get quiet to listen to that wisdom. Because when we can feel, we get to be.

I am also a mother and a birth trauma survivor.


As a trauma informed therapeutic yoga teacher I see the strength in empowering a person to find what feels supportive to them. To foster their choice and experience by holding space for their curiosity and exploration vs. judgement.

I believe that this experience can begin to translate off the mat and be integral to someone's journey and recovery. 

I love learning and exploring different forms of mindfulness so I can support others in creating their own wellness toolbelt. Through my own personal exploration and the support I offer others I have learned that connection, support, and healing doesn’t look the same for everyone, and that is perfectly okay!

I am a mother to be as navigate my 1st pregnancy.

Season 2 centers around the intersectionality of a multitude of conditions and experiences that overlap with eating disorders and women's health,

 we hope to empower and educate those listening about their recovery , mental health, and the wisdom of their own bodies through
stories, conversation, and compassion.  

Because our stories matters
