Book me to speak to your professional audience, women's group, or on your next podcast.

A STORY OF SOBRIETY, TENACITY, AND THE TIMELESS WISDOM OF GRANDMOTHERS
ABOUT ME
In May 2018, I stopped drinking alcohol. Sobriety reconnected me to a part of myself I'd long kept hidden in order to conform. I unearthed my authentic self, a girl who prioritized kindness but mistakenly adhered to the self-limiting belief: "nice guys finish last".
​
Powered by spirituality found through yoga and recovery, I began to write a kindness blog in Summer 2019. That same year, I traveled all throughout the United States, making new friends and experiencing all the perks my destinations had to offer. I found that by sharing these experiences, I not only inspired compassion in others, I sparked courage and ignited their spirit of adventure! I'm ready to pay it forward and recently left my 30-year retail career to commit to this dream.
​
I've gone from a shy introvert who feared everyone else's opinion to an empowered writer with a tenacious spirit. When I'm not teaching at my yoga studio, The Rooted Soul Yoga + Wellness in Hico, Texas, I am relaxing on our small ranchette south of DFW.
​
I'm here to help anyone who needs to unlock your infinite potential and help you THRIVE with courage and confidence.

"Courage is the most important of all the virtues, because without courage you can't practice any other virtue consistently."
