What would I do without puppy kisses?! They are such a part of my healing journey! My ZZ Tata girl is a rescue that we got in December, we don’t know what life would be without her! Animals are awesome Therapy! Please adopt!

Want to do a session right here? 🌊🤍

There is something powerful about stepping outside of four walls and allowing nature to become part of the healing journey.

Imagine a coaching session that includes walking along the shoreline, putting your feet in the sand, breathing deeply, moving your body, praying, reflecting, and creating space to hear what your mind, heart, body, and spirit have been trying to tell you.

I love utilizing the beach and other beautiful outdoor spaces for individual coaching sessions, private retreats, and small-group experiences.

Beginning in September and October, I’ll be welcoming a limited number of new coaching clients.

I especially love working with:
• Professionals and women navigating seasons of transition
• College students and young adults finding their identity, direction, and purpose
• Women ready to move beyond survival mode and reconnect with who God created them to be
• Anyone longing for a more integrated approach to emotional, physical, relational, and spiritual wellness

Sessions can take place in the studio, virtually, or sometimes right here—with the sand beneath your feet and the ocean beside you. 🌊

Because sometimes healing doesn’t need another room.

Sometimes it needs space. Movement. Beauty. Connection. And a place to simply be.

Mind. Heart. Body. Spirit.
Let’s care for all of you. 🤍

Beloved-Get to know your true self, you will never regret it! This is the part of you that is intimately connected to the heart of God! Not your personality, not what’s influenced to you from the world,not your reactions, just who God created you to be! Live abundant life! ❤️

My friends, God has not given you a spirit of fear. 🔥

We hear over and over that we are called to “take every thought captive”—but have you ever wondered how we actually do that?

How do we interrupt the thoughts, beliefs, and unconscious patterns that keep pulling us back into fear, anxiety, shame, or insecurity—and begin living with greater peace, freedom, and joy?🙌

One of the things I LOVE is seeing how many of the principles we find in Scripture are being illuminated through what we are learning about the brain, nervous system, and our capacity for change.

Through my years of working with women, (and men) I’ve developed a faith-centered approach using evidence-informed practices that help you become aware of the thoughts and unconscious patterns shaping your life, regulate what is happening in your body, and intentionally create healthier ways of thinking and responding.

Taking your thoughts captive isn’t pretending the hard thoughts aren’t there.

It’s learning to recognize them through my CALM coaching approach!
(Connect/Center, ASK/ALLOW, LOVE/LEARN,MOTIVATE/MOVE) 🙌

You don’t have to keep carrying the weight of thoughts that were never meant to define you.

There is freedom in Christ—and we can learn how to live from that freedom. 🙏🏼✨

Everything in creation is a reflection of the Father. 🙏🏼 This is one reason why being in nature is so healing!

The Canticle of Creation (by Saint Francis of Assisi)
Catholic Online Prayers
O Most High, all-powerful, good Lord God,
to you belong praise, glory,
honour and all blessing.
Be praised, my Lord, for all your creation
and especially for our Brother Sun,
who brings us the day and the light;
he is strong and shines magnificently.
O Lord, we think of you when we look at him.
Be praised, my Lord, for Sister Moon,
and for the stars
which you have set shining and lovely
in the heavens.
Be praised, my Lord,
for our Brothers Wind and Air
and every kind of weather
by which you, Lord,
uphold life in all your creatures.
Be praised, my Lord, for Sister Water,
who is very useful to us,
and humble and precious and pure.
Be praised, my Lord, for Brother Fire,
through whom you give us light in the darkness:
he is bright and lively and strong.
Be praised, my Lord,
for Sister Earth, our Mother,
who nourishes us and sustains us,
bringing forth
fruits and vegetables of many kinds
and flowers of many colours.
Be praised, my Lord,
for those who forgive for love of you;
and for those
who bear sickness and weakness
in peace and patience
- you will grant them a crown.
Be praised, my Lord, for our Sister Death,
whom we must all face.
I praise and bless you, Lord,
and I give thanks to you,
and I will serve you in all humility.

🎉10 Women. SOLD OUT. Selah by the Shore! ✨

There is something so powerful about intentionally stepping away from the noise to slow down, reconnect, and make space for healing. 🌊🤍

Would you love to create your own Selah experience with a group of women you love? Or maybe you’re in a season where you need something more personal—a private healing retreat designed just for you.

It’s one of my greatest joys to create these sacred, restorative experiences through faith, connection, movement, reflection, creativity, and rest.

🌿 Gather your own group for a custom retreat
🌿 Create a meaningful girls’ getaway
🌿 Or come away for a one-on-one private healing retreat

Sometimes we don’t need to push harder.
We need a safe place to pause, receive, and reconnect with who God created us to be.

Message me to create your own retreat experience. 🤍
