I didn’t grow up thinking I’d ever call myself a coach. I just knew I was always the one people came to. The one listening, asking questions, studying why we are the way we are, and trying to understand the deeper layers of the mind, the body, and the human experience. Simply because I always felt like the DREAMER, MISUNDERSTOOD, MISFIT, WEIRD one in my family/friend group. But somehow I was always seen as the “therapist friend” even long before I knew what that really meant. All I knew was that I was helping the people I loved and I felt good doing it.

Growing up, I was the kid who wanted to be a dancer, singer, actress, entertainer, etc. but then as I got to my teen years... I lost all parts to what truly made me happy and what I wanted to do with my life. But deep in my heart I always knew that no matter what career path I went down, I just want to help people. Everyone told me I should go to school and study psychology but school and I had a love hate relationship so I always felt turned off by that idea.

Years later, 2 things happened. I'll start with this one first... I received one question from my therapist after I was venting about the struggles in my marriage, and she looked at me and asked:

“Have you ever thought about being more feminine with him?”

Immediately, my body rejected it. I rolled my eyes inside and shut down. Because to me, “being feminine” meant weak. It meant ignoring my needs and pleasing someone else. But I was wrong.

That one question changed my life.

The second thing was when I stumbled across a woman on TikTok whose content stopped me in my tracks. She was talking about relationships and womanhood in a way I had never seen or heard before — grounded, embodied, and deeply empowering. I felt an instant pull. I devoured her content, joined her community, and wanted to learn everything she was teaching.

She was a coach.

At the time, I didn’t even know there was such a thing as coaching women. But watching her move so effortlessly in that role felt like a mirror. It clicked almost immediately — this is what I had already been doing my whole life. I just hadn’t named it yet… or realized you could actually create a business out of it.

That curiosity eventually led me to get my certification in life coaching, not because I needed permission, but because I wanted structure for the work I was already living and breathing. What I learned there gave language and frameworks to something that had always come naturally to me — holding space, seeing patterns, asking the right questions, and helping women make sense of their inner worlds.
