My Story: From Star Search to Sustainable Health (with a detour through stand-up comedy)
I grew up a competitive dancer (four stars on Star Search baby!), ran track in double sports bras before Lululemon was a thing, and learned to lift weights from my big bro and the wrestling team. They also taught me how to withstand a double leg lock and hold my own as a chick! I’ve been obsessed with all things health since I was old enough to blend a smoothie and suggest chia was more than just a seed for a chia pet!
I grew up in a “granola” family—shopping at vitamin stores and talkin’ supplements and herbs long before Whole Foods existed and was consuming your whole paycheck. Wellness isn’t just what I do—it’s in my roots. I’ve always believed there’s a secret (but not-so-secret) connection between food, energy, and thoughts. I’ve made it my mission to help others tap into that magic too. This isn’t woo-woo words but rather a connection available to all if you’re open and want it.
While studying Broadcast Journalism at ASU, I was the girl giving unsolicited fitness tips over vodka sodas. Then came the pivot: I swapped tequila shots for lemon-ginger shots, and that one choice launched my full-on wellness glow-up. That simple switch showed me firsthand how trading not-so-great habits for better ones can totally transform your energy, body, and life.
Before coaching, I was a stand-up comic, watching first hand how humor heals, lowers defenses, and helps release what holds us back. Today, I blend storytelling, science, and soul work to help humans heal, grow, and feel incredible—with fun, practicality, and zero preachiness.
💡 Healing doesn’t have to be heavy as barbells. Sometimes it starts with a laugh…and maybe a dog kiss or a purring kitty nuzzle.
