My Story

🌺The beginning of my brave story...

I grew up off the grid in Hawai’i.
We had no TV, no microwave, not even enclosed walls—
but we had lava fields, back roads, active volcanoes… and breathtaking waterfalls.

I was that barefoot girl climbing trees, surfing waves,
and scribbling poems by candlelight.

I didn’t know it then,
but I was already in love with the sacred rhythm of nature and storytelling.

Years later, after chasing dreams across continents and camera crews—
I found myself holding my newborn son in one arm
and the shattered pieces of my marriage in the other.

I was alone.
In a country not my own.
With no roadmap and no Plan B.

Just a deep, aching knowing:
This isn’t how my story ends.

📖 So we took to the road—

My infant son and I.
Rolling with Roxy, our little vintage caravan.

I learned to breathe through heartbreak.
To trust the unknown.
To rise—slowly, awkwardly, bravely.

I studied. I trained. I healed.
I reclaimed joy, purpose, and a version of life that felt like me.

Now I help other women do the same.

✨What I do

I help help women at major life transitions
Reclaim your worth and power
Soften into who you truly are
Create lives you love and deserve

We don’t just “fix” things.
We rewrite the story—from the inside out.

I blend storytelling, wholistic work, coaching, and deep compassion
to guide women back to themselves.
