Why I Do This Work
After losing five loved ones in six years, I found myself navigating a world I didn’t recognize — one shaped by grief, uncertainty, and eventually, renewal. Through writing and coaching, I’ve learned that healing doesn’t mean forgetting — it means growing stronger, softer, and wiser.
Today, I help others rediscover their joy and reclaim their lives.
Whether you’re rebuilding after a life altering event or looking to thrive in a new chapter, I’m here to walk alongside you.
