My Story

I’ve always had an interest in health, but in 2009 I committed to getting healthy and that was when I found my passion … a passion for sharing how to make one simple change at a time!

I had a good reason to be paying attention. I watched my mother wither away with Congestive Heart Failure (Coronary Heart Disease) and had a grandfather and uncle who both died of heart attacks before their 57th birthday. I was already older than that! In 2006 I lost my husband to a major stroke. He was 63! It was critical that I change my lifestyle!

So, I studied, worked at it and got healthy. As I learned how one simple change at a time leads to a healthy lifestyle, I realized I wanted to support others on their journey. I enrolled at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition earning certification as a Holistic Health Coach in 2011. I learned so much more there! It’s not just about food and exercise; It’s about balance. I have never looked back!
