How I Found My Path

​

Every Journey has a Purpose

My journey has taken many unexpected turns, each one

leading me toward the work I'm honored to do today as

an Integrative Health Practitioner and Intuitive Coach.

​

Where It All Began

Growing up, I spent many hours at the hospital where my

dad worked as a respiratory therapist. For years, I believed

I would one day follow in his footsteps. But life had other plans.

Marriage, children, and everyday life gently led me down a different path.

​

My dad, despite his long hospital career (and still working part-time at 82!), has always lived a natural and holistic lifestyle. Through his influence, I found myself naturally drawn toward health, healing, and asking deeper questions about how the body works.

​

A Lifetime of Learning

My curiosity eventually expanded beyond natural health and took me around the world. I traveled to the Amazon Jungle, Cuzco, Machu Picchu, Abadiânia, and other parts of Brazil, as well as Canada, Texas, and California, learning from shamans, Master Teachers, spiritual mentors, and many gifted practitioners.

​

Along the way, I immersed myself in Dr. John DeMartini's work through multiple life courses and the DeMartini Method. These experiences deepened my understanding of the body's wisdom, the emotional roots of illness, and our incredible capacity to heal and grow.

​

In 2006, I began working with clients in chiropractic clinics throughout Texas and Idaho, offering hands-on healing techniques and intuitive life coaching. In 2012, I created my remote coaching practice, Food Rest Love, where I focused exclusively on intuitive coaching.

​

My Own Healing Journey

Life eventually shifted in a way I never expected. Years of severe pain, immune dysfunction, medications, surgeries, and unanswered questions left me exhausted and searching for answers.

​

After eight long years of searching, I finally discovered an Integrative Healing approach that revealed what no one had previously seen. With a personalized plan that addressed the underlying patterns in my body, healing finally began. For the first time in years, I experienced the relief I had been searching for.

​

When the Integrative Healing Practitioner program became available, I knew this was my next step. I was honored to be among the first students to complete the program, bringing my own healing journey full circle.

​

Today

Today, I continue to deepen my understanding of whole-person healing and personal growth, blending science and intuition to help others better understand their bodies, release what no longer serves them, and move toward greater health, clarity, and vitality.

​

"One thought can change your life."
