Hi! I am so glad that you are here. Please have a look around. Take your time and if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. You can do that here.
A little about my career & life journey:
Most of my adult life I have been a teacher. Out of college, I wrote curriculum and grants for inner city schools in Seattle and Bellevue. After I found my post college sea legs, I taught golf for nearly 20 years. In 2011, I started a new teaching gig; raising my son. However, I think he is teaching me more than I am teaching him.
I am a Yoga & Meditation Teacher & Owner of Gather Yoga + Wellness. I am an Author, Wellness Educator, Professional Student and Chronic Dog Rescuer. My most important role, however, is partnering with my husband to be an example and a light for our son.
I am also a woman in long term recovery. I used to say recovering from alcohol and other substances but the truth is that those things were my medicine. The recovery part of my journey happened once I quit ingesting those things that numbed my experience. I was full of self doubt, my inner critic was LOUD, I was unkind to my mind, heart, body & soul. There was a tremendous amount of self loathing and shame and at 39 years old, I had just had ENOUGH. I still remember the day I quit and asked for help. You can read more about my journey HERE. Recovery and healing are not linear; that much I know for sure. I also know that the bravest thing that I ever did was ask for help.
Thank you for being here. Thank you for showing up and being curious. You belong here.
