My wellness journey began in 2005.
At the time, I was dealing with a chronic cough and looking for answers.
That experience led me to learn more about the substances we encounter in our homes, food, and personal-care routines—and about choices that support the body’s natural processes.
Young Living became an important part of that journey.
But this wasn’t simply a season of my life. I grew with it.

Along the way, both of my daughters earned their master’s degrees, and our family continued learning together.
Then life brought a loss I could never have prepared for.
In 2021, my youngest daughter died unexpectedly.

Our culture doesn’t always make enough space for grief.
During that season, I became deeply grateful for practices already woven into my life:
prayer, breathwork, essential oils, meditation, mindfulness, movement through line dancing, and other supportive wellness practices.
I learned something important:
Wellness doesn’t prevent life from hurting.

Today, as I move through my 70s, I’m passionate about helping other women understand that aging does not have to mean surrendering responsibility for their well-being.
I believe knowledge gives us choices.
And choices give us an opportunity to become better stewards of our health.
My role isn’t to tell you what to do.
It is to help you:
I bring together:
Most importantly, I meet you where you are.
Because real wellness isn’t about perfection. It’s about stewardship.
