About Me

"If there were no love, there'd be no grief." ~ Zig Ziglar

This quote set me on the long walk of my grief journey, the path of putting one foot in front of the other. If you've experienced loss and feel stuck in your grief, I encourage you to take the first step; together, we'll begin restoring your joy. As a Certified Joy Restoration Grief Coach, I aim to help you eliminate toxic thoughts, reduce stress, find and fulfill your purpose, and move forward while not giving up precious memories.

After the unexpected loss of my husband, best friend, and soulmate in January 2021, my first thoughts were, "I'm not as strong as others think I am. I don't know how to do this." I described myself as a monster truck spinning its wheels in a dark, wet mud pit. As much as I turned my wheels to dig out, I kept sinking deeper and deeper into the mud. I felt trapped. I felt the darkness beginning to envelop me. I just wanted to see the light, feel the sun's warmth, and find a way to live this life of my "new normal." It wasn't easy, but I learned how to lean into my grief and find positive ways to find comfort, hope, and healing.

Teaching is my calling and passion as an educator and school administrator for 20+ years. My strength is utilizing guided questions to engage in meaningful discussions and activities to assist in your grief journey. It is necessary for moving forward into the new normal.

My personal experience with loss and grief and my professional experience as a teacher and educator make our coaching sessions positive and powerful.

I am looking forward to moving forward together.
