My journey has been one transformation after another. After years of living with dysregulation due to trauma, addiction, miseducation, unconscious behavior, and unhealthy habits my life took an unexpected turn at 22 years old when I was arrested. This wake up call became a catalyst of change that launched me into a whirlwind of pain, confusion, fear, awakenings, growth, healing, and surrender. I knew I couldn't waste this second chance. I set out on a path to cultivate inner peace, joy, self-awareness, and contentment.

​

Achieving my Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and securing what I once believed to be my “dream job” felt like the pinnacle of my journey—but this reality held unexpected lessons. It didn't take long to realize I wasn't living my true purpose. Everyday I would feel out of alignment and need to lay down.  The shame of not being happy and fulfilled weighed heavy on me. After a year of this struggle, I chose to trust my intuition and walk away from my job to start Entrepreneurs in Recovery®️. This decision opened up new opportunities where I began learning from individuals who had mastered tapping into their innate greatness.

​

For nearly two decades, I've been a self-scientist, discovering new ways to heal my own dysregulation and unlock my potential. My practices include daily journaling, morning routines, cold therapy, meditation, exercise, therapy, coaching, mentorship, visualization, affirmations, calendar management mastery, earthing, holistic health remedies, psychedelic assisted therapies, among many others.

 

Today, I mentor, train, and coach people in the areas where I've spent the most time improving. I speak, facilitate events, ceremonies, and training with community groups, coalitions, companies, recovery community organizations, non-profits, accountability/drug/recovery court programs, addiction treatment, and mental health centers worldwide. My trainings help create recovery-supportive workplaces, holistic wellness, and empowerment through deeper connection, education, psychological safety, and resilience.
