You’re motivated. You’re smart. You have your LIFE together.... or so people think

Do you consistently set the same goals year after year but for some reason can't achieve them?

Are you hitting roadblocks in career, relationships, health, or well-being?

Are you constantly trying to be happier or more passionate about your life, but feel misdirected or don't know how to get there? 

It’s time for you to re-evaluate how you’re pursuing happy

I'm extremely passionate about helping others recognize their own potential and to create a life greater than what they thought possible. Life and Health coaching is more than a career for me - it has become my mission, my purpose, and my passion.

This is why...

Life COACHING

I spent over half a decade burning myself out at Google in a stressful corporate environment.  

In my life, I always thought if I worked hard I would be successful and with success would come happiness. I chased the better company, bigger job, and next promotion. I prioritized it over everything, including my health and well-being. After my last promotion it suddenly hit me - I wasn't happy. Not only was I not doing work that made me feel alive, but also I had been sacrificing everything I really did care about for half a decade!

In Western culture, happiness is defined by the joy we gain from external factors. It's seen as something outside of ourselves, and drives our behavior. The end goal defines our happiness. When you're living for the next best thing it's impossible to enjoy the present. 

I've realized happiness is a choice and we can choose to be happy today. For me, I had to redefine my definition of daily success. Now, my definition of success is to balance the things that bring me joy - build my health coaching business, continue the work I love at Google, be more intuitive with my body, make space for time in nature, practice self compassion and self love, cultivate great friendships, relationships, and spend time with family. I gave myself permission to define what actually makes me happy, prioritize that, and live a fuller more passionate life.

Health Coaching

At the age of 13 I was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease. When you are told you're "sick" you suddenly think something "very big and bad is wrong with you". I hid the disease from friends and pushed through life ignoring my symptoms.  

When I turned 20 I decided to start working and eating healthier. Suddenly an unexpected reaction happened - my symptoms began to disappear. During this time I truly began to understand the power of movement and all natural eating to heal. Food is medicine. 

Once my body was able to heal itself, I was finally able to live my life free of fear and worry about my health. I also realized that many people are suffering from health issues because they don't know how to eat healthy, regulate their own stress, or workout properly. I knew I had to help others build these tools to transform their own lives.

How they work together

After years of self reflection and introspection, I’ve learned how balance between all of these things is what has made me my healthiest and happiest self. Through nutrition and lifestyle changes, and intuitive learning, I have developed a deep understanding in myself that I never thought was possible, and have been able to create a life I truly love.

Happiness and health can be confusing. Some people think of health exclusively as what we eat or our physical activity. My coaching practice looks at the person holistically - how all areas of your life are connected. In order to reach optimum health and happiness, we need to address not only sleep, nutrition and exercise, but more importantly stress, relationships, spirituality, and career. Each person is different, and how they experience and manage each aspect of their life is different too.

I'm excited to help each individual create their perfectly balanced life. 

I currently work at Google on the Global Brand Solutions and Innovations team, and focus on YouTube Competitive Strategy. I'm also involved with Google's Well Being and Leadership team which creates well known programs such as "Search Inside Yourself" and "Managing Your Energy". Past positions at Google have included being a Creative Solutions Specialist and an Internal Marketing Lead.  

I'm also a graduate of the Institute of Integrative Nutrition and a member of the AADP (American Association of Drugless Practitioners). 

I graduated cum laude and with honors from Lafayette College with a double major in Psychology and Mathematics/Economics. My thesis was in Behavioral Economics, named "The Visceral Effects of Risky Decision Making".

I'm children's yoga certified, with plans to expand my certification to adult yoga.
