After years of living with nervous system dysregulation due to trauma, addiction, miseducation, and unhealthy habits, my life took an unexpected turn at 22 years old when I was arrested. This wake-up call became a catalyst for change, launching me into a whirlwind of pain, confusion, fear, awakenings, growth, healing, and inner truth. 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 painful lessons. It didn't take long to realize I wasn't living in alignment with my strengths and values.  The shame of not being happy and fulfilled weighed heavy on me. After a period of 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 found healing and entrepreneurial success.

​

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

 

Today, I host the Entrepreneurs in Recovery® podcast and help to curate restorative psychedelic experiences as a personalized psychedelic guide. I also coach people one on one in the areas where I've spent the most time improving. I speak and lead powerful events, ceremonies, and trainings with recovery communities, coalitions, organizations, nonprofits, treatment centers, and recovery courts. Whether I’m working with a local group or a global team, my focus is always the same: to help create recovery-supportive environments rooted in connection, empowerment, coherence, and psychological safety. Through experiential practices and education, I guide people and organizations to build resilience and cultivate true holistic wellness.
