I am a dedicated and compassionate transformational coach and facilitator whose deepest desire is to encourage women to transform their lives, embrace their power, and fully realize their destiny.  I have studied the principles of Feminine Power for the last 5 years under the guidance of Dr. Claire Zammit, creator of Evolving Wisdom, a global learning community specializing in transformative education and leadership.

 

I am a teacher who has worked for nearly thirty years with adults, teens, and elementary students.   Throughout my career, my passion for teaching has never wavered.  I believe that by teaching from the heart, I am able to reach the whole person, encompassing mind, body, and spirit. I bring this same instruction, dedication, and insight to my coaching and workshops as I now seek to teach women how to break through past issues, transform negative core beliefs, and generate new ways of showing up in life through principles that focus on self-transformation and empowerment.

 

I am a mother of 5 children and the grandmother of 7.  It is through these relationships that I have come to know that there is no force greater than Love. I knew that to become the mother and grandmother I wished these children to have, I needed to become whole, to heal. I needed to free myself from the bonds of childhood sexual abuse.

 

It was during my studies that I came face to face with my own personal demons and began the process of healing.  I had been in therapy since my early 20’s and experienced a variety of healing modalities; NOTHING worked for me.  The endless talk therapy served only to make the underlying issues more alive in my life.

 

By completing my years of study based upon the principles of the Feminine Power programs, I found myself evolving from victim to victor and now it is my wish to share these transformational healing truths with others.  One of the most powerful things that I have learned is that when bonds of any type are thrown off, Love is free to thrive.  I am on a path to help people thrive and become all that they were meant to be in this lifetime – regardless of the barriers they have faced in the past.  This they need to do, not only for the people they love but most importantly, for themselves.
