After years of working as a graphic and textile designer while attempting to raise a family, I have come to realize how important health is to our everyday wellbeing. I wanted to find a way to help others in their journey through life’s transitions – both big and small. 

I am somewhat of a “glass half full” person but having moved a lot in my adult life, I did not realize how much it affected me. In particular when I was a new mom I did not initially have the support of family / friends nearby. As a “can do” person in spirit this began taking its toll. I was the classic unruffled duck paddling furiously underneath : ) This left me with a lot of shame, feeling alone not knowing how to balance a career and 2 kids with moving every few years (even with a supportive husband).

I began working to discover what it means to be truly healthy in both mind and body. And what I thought was related to food choice and exercise patterns –which of course are important– it came down to much more: finding community, what really made me feel joy, less negative self talk, the home environment (less clutter? hmmm) and finding my way back to cooking real food.  

What I hope to offer is a friendly –less judgy– approach to wellness. In fact I chose the word “wellbeing” as to me that is what it is all about: finding out what makes you feel good so that you treat yourself well which then leads to a cascade effect of health + wellbeing.  

Take a look around, see what resonates,
then let’s chat,
