My interest in wellness began in my college years, then continued with my first job at GNC Nutrition and teaching aerobic classes. I continued teaching evening classes during my corporate life. As a single mother with a traveling sales job, I started to get migraine headaches, later confirmed more hereditary and I needed to adjust my lifestyle.
Talking with a friend, I was sparked by a joyful memory of yoga classes I took years earlier while in college. So I signed up for some classes. To be honest, I rested on the mat more than I did yoga. However, soon I began to sleep better, eat healthier, less headaches and began to feel more positive with my health.
______________
I made a pivotal change by moving to the West Coast where I got certified as a personal trainer and a yoga instructor.
In 2010, I began working for a wonderful patient-centered hospital as an Exercise Specialist in their Healthy Living Center, assisting the staff and community members with their wellness needs.
In 2017, I became a breast cancer survivor.
In 2019, the tragic death of my Navy SEAL nephew led me to attend a special Certification for Grief Yoga training program.
In 2020, the pandemic was the catalyst to define my skills by becoming a Certified Mayo Clinic Health and Wellness Coach. And now, a proud to be a National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach.
