HEYYYYYY! Thanks for popping by! Nice to meet you!
Thanks for stopping by my site! Regardless of how you found me, I know first hand how awesome it can be to truly connect with the coach you choose to work with. So let me tell you a bit about me and my philosophy.
I'm a wife of 16 years to my husband Shaun. Together we have 3 girls, aged 14, 12, and 8. We recently relocated from beautiful West Kelowna BC, to an acreage in Rural Alberta, where we have been diving headfirst into chickens, goats, and venturing into the world of homesteading.
Education wise, I have both a Bachelor of Arts and a Bachelor of Education degree. I went through to be a high school Geography and English teacher, but have been a full-time online health and fitness coach for almost 13 years, though recently began working in schools again as an Administrative Assistant and Educational Assistant.
For the past 13 years I've worked in an online classroom (challenge groups, accountability groups, community), where I not only connect people with world-class fitness and nutrition programs, but provide quality care in my coaching, diving deep into YOU, where you're at RIGHT now, and providing solutions to best suit that, and your goals, both long and short-term, as we work together. Make no mistake though, when you work with me, you will always be reminded of the importance of the inner work!
My job is to empower you and help you to take charge of your health and wellbeing! I won't be there dragging you along, messaging you daily to get up and show up for yourself...EXECUTION is YOUR job. Taking ownership and accountability of our choices NOW, knowing that WE hold the key to our own success, is the secret. Only YOU can change YOU.
Moving on:
For years I've thought of our body as a vessel, a container that carries who we are as people. I focused on helping people to have a physical transformation but with emphasis on the importance of the inner transformation (healing/growth/evolution of self). In more recent years, I've expanded my journey to include cleaner, less toxic products knowing that the functionality of our bodies is significantly impacted by the things we put on, in, and around our bodies. Hormone disrupters are EVERYWHERE now and as a woman in her 40s, who's venturing into perimenopause, I'm making simple product shifts that support hormone/gut/brain health and help to detox the body of heavy metals/toxins.
It's all connected - all of these steps that we take to improve our overall health, increase our QUALITY of life.
This IS Life - this is not about what we look like - its about how we FEEL, and how we show up for ourselves and our people on the daily! I want to empower women and help create awareness surrounding the areas of their lives that could use some focus (the things that cause us stress, anxiety, depression, struggle, fatigue, conflict and product swaps that support hormone health), and help you to grow through what you're going through as you progress throughout your journey!
This journey does not have a destination, so the sooner you ditch the notion of the idea of "failing" or "quitting" the sooner we can carry on. This journey is lifelong. It is ongoing, and never static. There will be ups and downs and twists and turns as you progress through the various seasons of your life. The sooner we fall in love with that, the fact that those are all part of the process, the sooner we can silence the negative self talk, step into our greatness, and simply continue working on making progress and being the healthiest, happiest version of ourselves.
We all have a day one! We all have a starting point! And its from there that we grow, build self-esteem, gain momentum, and really see results and changes in our lives.
Be sure to reach out to me if you want to get started or continue on your wellness journey or if you'd like to explore cleaner products that support hormone/brain/gut health!
