Now, let’s get into HOW I came to be women’s period bestie!
When & where did my journey begin?
My business began as a dream vision to start a blog. In the Spring of 2016 I created this website, bought my domain, and was ready to START. Well, nothing happened (YET!), but I knew I needed to start somewhere. Fast forward a year, Spring of 2017 I had a shitty breakup that crushed my heart and my identity so much that it “woke me up”. To be real this starts most soul-awakening stories LOL. I was in a 5-year serious relationship that ended when he cheated on me for what was the last time. I finally realized I was worthy and deserving of more, I didn’t quite feel it yet but leaving that relationship was step one. I knew I was capable of having more in my life and relationships but what now?
This is where my journey begins.
I started with talk therapy. Soon after this I manifested the first thing on my dreams bucket list- becoming a Pure Barre teacher. I discovered my voice and power. Pure Barre catapulted my health journey. I educated myself on the importance of nutrition and became obsessed. This led me to IIN and I became a holistic health coach later specializing in women’s health. I thought I wanted to teach nutrition so I went from blogger to coach and decided to enroll in a business program (June 2019). HEY High Impact Coaching! This gave me major clarity that what I was actually obsessed with was hormones, not nutrition. Wait what? Let me rewind.
At 22 I was diagnosed with HPV.
This was scary, to say the least. I was thinking “Wait I'm sexually responsible, I’ve been with the same partner, HOW?” My doctor blew it off. Said it was totally normal and would go away on its own in a couple of years. Guess what? It didn’t.
I had to be monitored every 6 months so that I didn’t get cervical cancer. Then of course… I got diagnosed with high risk pre-cervical cancer. January of 2019 (age 27) I was told “You should remove your cervix so you have less risk of these cells coming back” WTF? I had a million thoughts “I don’t know if I want kids yet, I'm not in a partnership, how do I decide this? I thought I had time, I thought carrying my own kid was my birthright, there has to be another way…”
I knew there was another way.
My intuition was loud and clear even though it made no sense logically or medically speaking. Why risk it? It’s what everyone said to me. “It’s not the end of the world if you can’t carry your own kid.” It was to me and I didn’t accept that as my truth or my story. I wanted to have kids in my own time, in my body AND still create my dream life and career. I hit a major rock bottom for a few months, but at that moment I knew I had to make a change with my body and hormonal health.
I was already off birth control, but now what? The Universe helped me out. I discovered the book Woman Code by Alissa Vitti. I started studying, researching, and educating myself on women’s health. Little did I know this was the thing I wanted to teach. I was doing it for me, but really I was doing it for me and those similar to me who knew there was more to life.
Okay now that you know that…
In HIC’s program, I had a major AHA moment of “Shoot I love hormones!” I love how I feel. I love who I am becoming and this shit seriously lights me up!”
So I developed a program for hormonal health and how to cycle sync. I discovered FAM to prevent pregnancy naturally. This allowed me to FLOURISH and THRIVE with my life. I became the powerful woman I always knew I was and I finally FEEL like her through this work. I attract whatever I put my mind to.
I know I was born to help women do the same.
I used to be that girl who didn’t know her worth or value. I felt small. I lacked self-confidence. I never wanted to be too much. Hello people pleaser! I hated my period. I was disconnected from my intuition and followed what my mind said to do more often than not. I felt like my emotions made me weak. I felt like I had to constantly prove myself. I lived a life based on what people thought of me. I validated my worth through emotionally unavailable men or friendships that were “cool”.
When I finally "woke" up this is where my brand and business began and there was no looking back for this queen.
I am only available for high-vibe people, places, experiences, and things. I just needed to meet myself again and if I can do it, so can you!
