Helping Women Reclaim Their Power and Live Authentically

I help women who’ve outgrown old roles, relationships, and self-concepts reconnect with who they truly are — beyond people-pleasing, perfectionism, and societal conditioning. Through mindful, trauma-informed guidance, you’ll learn to trust yourself, hold your power, and create a life that reflects your true worth.

My Story

I watched the women I loved—mothers, sisters, friends—sacrifice their happiness, dreams, and identities for the sake of others. They put everyone else first, silencing their own needs and desires to keep relationships intact or to “do the right thing.” I promised myself it wouldn’t be me. I believed I could have it all: love, family, success—and still stay true to who I was.

But despite my best intentions, my marriage ended in divorce, and I found myself completely lost. The roles I had built my life around—wife, partner, caregiver—were gone, and I didn’t know who I was without them. For the first time, I faced the quiet, uncomfortable truth: I had lost touch with myself. I felt unsure, overwhelmed, and painfully aware of how much of my energy and identity I had given away.

Through that journey, I discovered how to reclaim my power piece by piece. I learned to honor my own needs, listen to my intuition, and set boundaries that protected my energy and well-being. I also realized that the way I showed up mattered—not just for me, but for my children. By modeling self-respect, courage, and authenticity, I could teach them the same values. Seeing them respond with confidence and curiosity reminded me that this work is transformational—not just personally, but generationally.

Today, I live aligned with my truth. I make decisions with clarity and confidence, trust my worth, and embrace the woman I am fully. 

I’ve lived what it means to lose and rediscover myself—to let go of who I thought I was supposed to be and return to who I truly am. That’s why I’m here: to help others come home to that same peace and alignment within. My work exists to help women bridge that gap—to reclaim their power, reconnect with their truth, and live with a grounded wholeness that no title, role, or relationship can give or take away.

Here’s How I Work With You

I guide women through a journey of deep transformation, blending psychology, mindfulness, inner child work, somatic awareness, and practical evidence-based tools. Together, we explore ways to reclaim your power and step into a life that truly feels like yours:

1. Empowering Your Voice

   You’ll uncover the courage to speak your truth and express yourself fully—discovering what it feels like to set boundaries with confidence, not fear.

2. Unveiling Your Authentic Self

   You’ll begin to release the masks of perfectionism and conditioning, noticing what lights you up, what brings you joy, and what resonates with your deepest sense of self.

3. Reclaiming Your Energy

   You’ll find ways to honor your energy, protect your boundaries, and cultivate practices that help you feel grounded, resilient, and aligned.

4. Creating Your Inner Revolution

   You’ll notice where limiting beliefs have held you back, and explore how shifting your mindset can help you step more fully into your power—building a life that reflects your values, desires, and authentic self.

My Credentials

I’m a Trauma-Informed Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT) Mindset Coach trained in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), with a Master’s in Women’s Studies and a certification in Positive Psychology from UC Berkeley Extension.

I’m also a mother, writer, podcast host, Humanities professor, and communications expert. I’ve spent years studying communication and human connection—curious about how relationships, parenting, and the words we use shape the values we live by.

I bring an evidence-based, insight-driven approach to every session, combining psychology, mindfulness, and intuitive guidance to help women:

• Reconnect with themselves and their inner authority

• Stop giving their energy away to others

• Set boundaries confidently

• Break free from perfectionism and outdated roles

• Live a life that feels aligned, authentic, and fully their own

My work is designed to be both practical and transformational, giving you tools you can apply in your daily life while also supporting deep inner growth.

This isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about remembering who you’ve always been—and finally living from that truth.
