ABOUT ME
I'm a Master Certified Life Coach with over a decade of experience working in social work with adults, adolescents, and children. I earned a Bachelor's Degree in Social Work at Florida State University in 2010 and moved to Asheville, NC in January of 2012 where I worked with children and families as a Foster Care Social Worker until June 2021.
In my social work career I worked with incredibly brave and resilient adolescents in the system who were preparing for their independence as adults.
I saw firsthand how UNSTOPPABLE these adolescents were despite facing many obstacles. The teens I worked with taught me that the strength to OVERCOME any obstacle lies within oneself and that with the right support and belief system anyone can reach their goals. All you need is the right MINDSET.
It was through self-compassion, self-love, and a lot of courage that these teens faced their fears and overcame the unimaginable. Their strength, resilience, and bravery taught me that: I am the only person standing between me and my dreams and that this is true for all of us. Their stories inspired me to chase my dreams in an effort to partner with others and empower them to make their dreams a reality.
In June of 2021, I left my social work job and I spent the following 4 months focusing on my 2 kids and studying self-compassion, self-love, and building healthier habits in my own life. Additionally, I hired and met with a life coach in September 2021. Following a one on one session with my life coach, I left the session feeling empowered like I had never been before. My coach asked me powerful questions that led me to uncovering limiting beliefs I had and discovering ways in which I was sabotaging my own dreams and goals. It was in that moment that I discovered the true power of life coaching.
In October and November of 2021, I completed training with the Certified Life Coach Institute to become a Master Certified Life Coach and began working on launching my own business which I launched January 2022.
