My story
Why I Do What I Do
From climbing the corporate ladder and traveling the world to staying home with kids, working at a church and having panic attacks on the bathroom floor. Life devoured me when I least expected it.
I thought I was doing all the right things. Everyone thought I had it all together, including me.
Then I broke, journeyed through the darkness and FINALLY discovering how to live REAL, MESSY, DIVINE & FREE.
Now, I mentor women and girls all over the world just like you. Messy Miracles who are tired of simply surviving their days. Your busy mind, weary body & restless soul are INDICATORS that there is a better way to live, but it’s impossible to do it on your own. Trust me…I tried.
