My Story

The Road to Healing

At 15
I woke up partially paralyzed.

At 17
I had my large intestine removed.

At 18
I was bleeding internally and no doctor knew why.

For years, I lived as a medical mystery…
but deep down, I knew my body was carrying stories I hadn’t learned to speak. My body held an immense amount of fear, trauma, and unprocessed life. I pretended everything was okay. I pushed it down, down, down, until my body finally said, “No more.”

At 19, I began the real work: the inner work.
Trauma release. Mind–body and somatic healing. Meditation. Listening. Learning.
I became a health coach to heal myself, and was asked to coach my first client.

I changed my environment, my thoughts, my behaviors, my diet…
and slowly, steadily, I began to heal.

By 23, I was physically healthy.
By 26, after a journey to India and moving through radical grief, I had digested the emotional and spiritual pain and connected to a sense of self I’d never had before.

Now, in my 30s, I am the healthiest and most whole I’ve ever been.

I live without a vital organ (& no bag)

My leg works (I can run, people!)

I’m missing an intestine, but trust me… I’ve got guts

I travel, love, grieve, laugh, and live fully.

I’m silly, soulful, and grounded in purpose

If there’s one thing I know, it’s this:
You can heal. You can grow. You can live forward too.

To life. To love. To the miracles we become.

Thank you for being here. Thank you for being you. Please know you’re not alone.
