wilderness explorer - inside & out

In my teens I discovered the liberation of being able to walk 50 miles around a stunning 14,000ft peak with a group of girls and women, and in discovering my confidence to physically and mentally complete such a journey with enthusiasm, I knew that wilderness adventure would be an essential part of my life.  

In my 20’s I was injured in a car accident that left me in constant back pain, and knee instability.

Being told that I would never backpack or ski again was devastating.

This led to exploring several modalities of physical healing in depth and a spiritual lifestyle change that included and yoga and simplifying. 

By welcoming the courage to do what was required to pursue my life dreams, the body healed. I ended up becoming a ski patroller and an Outward Bound Instructor, leading groups on 23 day Wilderness Leadership courses—carrying a heavy backpack, of course!

From Head to Body

Working with groups in wilderness adventure based programs sparked my interest in team building and leadership studies. I earned a MS in Organizational Development, and consulting projects in strategic development and organizational change appeared, but my heart just wasn’t in the consulting field. Letting go of all that I had invested in that path was hard, but I knew I had to move on. 

The next path was becoming a certified Pilates Instructor and opening a studio.

Over a decade and a half, more than 20 instructors came to share their talents, and I led apprentices in 9-month journeys of becoming Pilates teachers.  Together, we supported hundreds of people in health and discovering their bodies had the strength and flexibility to do things they never imagined possible.

Coaching notably enhanced the healing process and a new direction started to blossom, as a newfound sense of satisfaction starting taking root with helping others along their path of fulfillment in this way.

From Body to Heart

Divorce, internal health challenges, and unexpected business changes required difficult decisions.

Once again, “Life” was asking me to release personal identification with the roles I had been playing as wife, teacher, business owner, athlete, etc. The last decade has been surrendering to what life is asking of me with Self-compassion and Self-Respect.

The Sedona Method of Letting Go became a life boat when I felt tossed and pummeled by intense waves of emotions. I now see that every challenge is an opportunity to discover what we all truly are - that which is whole, complete and enough just as we are.

With the support of coaches and mentors, I listened to what was within, and continued to take action for what my heart truly desired. Now I have a beautiful life filled with happiness, joy and gratitude. I know radical transformation is possible and am very blessed to be able to coach and witness others achieving their worldly aspirations and recognizing the truth of what they really are.

inner freedom is peaceful and light-hearted.

What you can discover, is that “not knowing” the “how” everything will happen in life, but connecting to the “essence” of what you want to have happen is key to creating a full and rich life.

The essence of what you are seeking is already right within you, and when you connect to that essence which is already at your core - you are liberated to have the external world reflect what your heart truly desires with ease and grace.

When you are living connected to that which is at your core, you can be calm and confident about the direction you are going and co-create with life’s unfolding. You can live in the flow of nature’s intelligence and experience harmony that simultaneously supports your aspirations, health, finances, and relationships.
