Coming home to yourself is the most powerful act of creation.
Welcome. I’m so glad you’re here.
I know what it’s like to question everything. To feel pulled toward something different, and to long for a life that truly honors your soul. That’s exactly what I’ve done in my own life. And it’s why I created Thriving Rebel Wellness.
This isn’t a clinic or another program. It’s an invitation to come home to your body, your truth, and your spiritual purpose.

Founder of Thriving Rebel Wellness
A little bit about me…
I was born deeply sensitive, empathic, and intuitive. All gifts I didn’t understand at the time. Like so many of us, I grew up absorbing more than I could process, learning to survive by disconnecting from my body, numbing, and silencing my intuition.
At 15, I became a mother. I was told by family, friends, and even teachers, that I had ruined my life (and my child’s). But I refused to let that be true. I was determined to prove them all wrong. That was my first initiation into burnout… but also into living a soul-led life, even when the world didn’t understand.
Since then, I’ve walked through many layers of life—motherhood, marriage, business, health challenges, trauma, grief, a near-death experience, and deep spiritual awakenings. Every chapter shaped me. Every death and rebirth led me deeper into my truth.
I’ve learned that healing isn’t about fixing what’s broken. It’s about remembering who you are, and what you’re here to do.
As a mom, wife, and deeply sensitive human, I know how heavy life can feel when you’re trying to hold it all together while silently unraveling inside. For years, I chased supplements and protocols, did all the right things... until I realized that healing doesn’t come from doing more. It comes from coming home—to your body, your truth, your Creator.
That’s why I do this work. To create the kind of space it took me years to find. A space that sees the whole person, listens to the body, honors the soul, and invites Spirit back into the process.
Today, I have three incredible young men (21, 14, and 12), and I’m married to my best friend, Nicholas. After being born and raised in Washington, we now live in Montana where I homeschool my children and continue to work towards my most aligned life.
You’ll most often find me barefoot in the kitchen, curled up with a book, doing homework, or scribbling down thoughts that become blogs, programs, or journal pages. I love sweatpants, soul talk, and quiet mornings with tea and intention.
I believe healing begins in the ordinary—the meals, the mess, the everyday moments. And when you heal, your whole family heals.
