I was born and grew up in New York until I was 11 years old.

I remember feeling like I did not have enough energy to

keep up with the other kids.

​

​

I remember my mom taking me to pediatricians, ENT’s (ear, nose and throat doctors) allergy specialists and constantly trying to fix me. I seemed to always have something “wrong”. As I looked back at my medical records, for whatever reason I was giving given an excessive number amount of vaccines for a child born in the 60s. There were only 3 shots recommended for a total of seven shots. Somehow, I received ten DTPs, ten Polio and a measles and a German Measles along with many “allergy” shots and a large amount of antibiotics.

 

​

My family moved to Southern California when I was twelve. My energy and health seemed to improve. I feel it was the fresh, ocean air and sunshine!!! I love the ocean and spent every minute I could by water.

 

​

My intentional health journey began when I was at teenager and “struggling” with my weight.

​

​

Looking back, I didn't really have a weight issue. I had a fatigue issue.

At an early age I became aware  that I could not keep up with others and that my fatigue was in my way. Back in the day, losing weight was “eat a thousand calories and you'll lose weight.” No one ever talked about what to eat or the quality of the food . The belief was that one thousand calories didn't matter if it was diet soda and chips.  Gratefully my mom cooked what she thought was the best food.

I was however a product of lifeless canned green beans and overcooked frozen carrots, ginger ale and "Tab" (diet soda pre-diet coke!), pretzels and coffee ice cream were staples...along with whatever junk food of the day I had with my friends. Pizza anyone?

 

​

I began to explore on my own and make health changes. I went through a period of time with mononucleosis and Epstein Bar and some other fun journeys. At nineteen, I had a huge desire to feel physically fit and healthy and I devoured every bit of information I could at the time.

 

 I took my life on, got in shape, continued to shift my eating and became a fitness and spinning instructor for many years. My health continued to improve and my health self education expanded.

 

​

Marriage, three active, healthy pregnancies and babies later and the life of a young mother with a husband in school, I did the best I could in taking care of us nutritionally and handling the stress of  young motherhood.

 

​

A week after my third child was born I experienced a uterine infection that I most likely acquired in the hospital during delivery. It nearly ended my life here.

The doctors were not listening to me. They told me what I was experiencing was “normal” after just having given birth. I knew my body. It was not “normal” for me. After multiple phones call to my obstratrician and two trips to the E.R., I ended up in the hospital for a week. My husband balanced taking care of our four and two year old  daughters and a newborn, nursing baby boy.  With gratitude I say antibiotics saved my life and at the same time destroyed my immune system and health. The doctors said I was healed.

 

I was grateful to still be here with an opportunity to raise my babies.

My health and quality of life declined.

I was told I was "fine". I was not! I felt like the life was draining out of me.

I was blessed to find a brilliant German Naturopath who walked with me and taught me what my soul knew was true. I could really heal!

 

​

Two years into my working with this Naturopath I hit a long plateau. She kept asking me what was in my emotional history. I could not “think” of a thing. Ironically, I said I was “fine”.

What I was not aware of at the time was the intricate connection of my life’s emotional experiences and the state of health I was experiencing.

 

​

Gratefully, another angel stepped into my life and I took the opportunity to take on my “life” on a deep and profound way through the Impact Trainings in Utah. Within four days I released things I was not even consciously aware

that I was allowing to rule my life.

My health took a seventy-five percent leap forward! And the journey continued! My heart was back in the “driver’s seat” and my blessed ego mind was now the backseat passenger!

 

​

This intensified the fire in my heart for myself, my family and others to experience energetic health. It was a long journey.

I can honestly say if I knew then what I knew now, my journey would have been different and faster. Having said that,I treasure every second of my healing journey, the learning and the relationships and connections I have made.

​

I am who I am because of everything that has unfolded in my life for me.... with gratitude!

 

I am blessed to have been working for the last twenty-eight years in the area of personal development and deep healing with the training that supported me to take back my life. Along that journey I have experienced transformation in people's hearts. and then their bodies calling out for physical healing. I am grateful to be able to incorporate Holistic Nutrition and Lifestyle Education empowering you to whatever your journey is.

 

​

Everything is created spiritually and emotionally first.

I am passionate about people having the opportunity to live their life in balance and peace with healthy thriving bodies. I am passionate about children living healthy, energetic lives filled with wonder and curiosity! I love working with children who are experiencing neurodevelopment and health issues. I am all about connection and relationships.
