Life can teach us disconnection early. 

My journey began at eight years old, when a gymnastics injury and medical negligence led to two surgeries, a massive hematoma, and a blood clot that nearly cost me my life. That experience awakened me to something I’ve trusted ever since:

The body always speaks, the question is whether we listen.

But listening is a skill I didn’t learn overnight.

Growing up in a dysfunctional environment … living inside an “unbreakable athlete” mentality…stepping into the PGA and NFL as one of the first female movement coaches… carrying the emotional and physical repercussions of injury…and starting a business in a foreign country on my own— these weren’t just hardships.

They were invitations to connect and align with my purpose.

For years, I lived in a rigid internal cage – driven, disciplined, productive, yet emotionally armored. I was helping world-class athletes win championships while quietly recovering from traumas I had not named. My body was still running on old patterns anchored in reactivity.

An authentic alignment began when I finally stepped into SILENCE — my greatest discomfort growing up.

Observing myself without judgment.
Listening to my words.
Feeling my emotional scar tissue.
Releasing the ego that insisted I “push through” everything.

And then came the moment that brought everything into sharp focus: in my early 40s, I requested a CT scan of my heart arteries “just to check.” I had no symptoms, but my body was communicating. The result: an 80% blockage in the LAD — the widowmaker.
What my childhood injury began, my adult life had continued: internal blockages, rigid patterns, and emotional armor that narrowed my inner capacity.

That was the turning point.

I didn’t need more strategy or systems. I learned that strategy and structure are essential in life, performance, and business, but they can also suffocate GROWTH, especially when we are disconnected from our nervous system. 

I needed a new way of living, a new way of connecting with myself.

When I stopped fighting and started to listen, everything changed.

Mind-heart coherence restored joy and clarity.
Presence dissolved pressure.
Alignment brought strength that force never could.

Today, my work exists because I have lived both sides of high performance:
— the relentless achiever who outran her emotions
and
— the woman who had to rebuild from the inside out, starting with her heart. 

My mission is to guide high achievers through the embodied self-leadership system to help them go…

From stiff and stuck to flexible and aligned.
From pressure to presence.
From burnout to alignment.

Nobody is broken.
At some point, we become disconnected. 

Our greatest strength does not come from pushing harder, but from connecting with who we truly are to see the potential within – that’s the journey of alignment. That’s what embodied self-leadership is all about. 

When you are ready, I am here for you.
