My why...

For more than 25 years, I dedicated myself to a demanding career as a self-employed photographer. The countless late nights, weekends, and holiday all-nighters eventually caught up with me, leaving me utterly burned out. I wasn’t taking care of myself, and it was time for a change. I kept saying, “I’ll take time for myself tomorrow” or “I’ll catch up on sleep tomorrow,” but tomorrow never came. I felt like “me time” was selfish, even though I knew I couldn’t keep up the pace forever. It’s easy to get stuck in our routines and forget there’s another way to live and while it was a career I chose and truly loved—work I still deeply value—I realized I needed to slow down. However, I became frustrated with the usual approach to healthcare—I just wasn’t finding the answers I needed for my stress and gut issues. I knew if I didn’t make a change, my body would force me to. Through this struggle, I started to realize there’s a lot more to healing and life than what you see on the surface. Little by little, I started making small steps to show myself some love with lots of research along the way.

The greatest shift happened when I started a daily meditation practice. I started practicing Transcendental Meditation® in 2019, taking mindful walks in nature, and creating jewelry infused with intentional properties—serving as daily reminders to embrace self-love and live with greater mindfulness. Wanting to make lasting, healthy changes, I became a Holistic Nutritionist and Health + Wellness Coach. I found simple tools to help me stay on track during challenges, staying present and mindful while relieving stress and tension. Creating mindfulness tools helped me feel centered and grounded, and my desire to build inner strength and self-love grew into sharing these techniques with others. It’s inspiring to see others on their self-love journey, creating happiness in their lives and raising the vibration of the world around them.

I earned teaching certifications and credentials in several meditation modalities such as Primordial Sound Meditation with Deepak Chopra (like TM) and Instinctive Guided Meditation, mindfulness, qigong, and yoga for both adults and children. Yoga became more than just a physical practice—it turned into a way of life. I spent hours researching and exploring quantum physics, mindfulness, meditation, crystals, singing bowls, sound therapy, and moon cycles. Along the way, I became more self-aware and noticed my mood improved when I focused on eating nutritious foods, being present, and taking deep, mindful breaths.
