Life isn’t just about living; it’s about loving the life you live.

As a former university professor with a Masters and Doctorate degree, I found myself in a career that left me feeling empty and unfulfilled. I was doing and achieving all the things I was supposed to, but none of this brought me the experiences or feelings I really wanted or thought I’d have. But worse…

I also felt like a failure… alone, isolated, misunderstood and sad.

As my health deteriorated and my energy diminished, I sought out holistic practices like yoga, somatic movement and Reiki. I also studied and applied mindset and mindfulness techniques extensively to create new and healthier habits in my life. As I dove more deeply into myself, I found that what I really wanted was more time, more meaning and more freedom to nurture myself so that I could be more present with those I love. 

As I began taking small steps in breaking the cycle of busy, I noticed dramatic shifts in my energy, my sense of well-being and in my confidence. I learned how to say no to things and people who weren’t a fit. I stopped looking for approval and permission from others and started honoring my own needs. What I discovered through this journey was more clarity, more confidence and more courage to be true to who I am and to honor what’s important to me. Today, I don’t just live my life. I love my life. 

I began sharing my discoveries and techniques with other busy moms who felt stuck in the cycle of busy. The more I shared, the more women asked to work with me and to show them how to manage their multiple roles, and create their own path to deeper meaning and purpose. 

I recognized a deep need in busy moms that led me to pursue further studies and become a certified mindset and mindfulness coach. Without having experienced the shifts that came through my own journey, I would not have had the courage or the confidence to rise and honor this calling. This is how Empowered Through Peace was born and continues to thrive today.  

The empowering process I discovered helps break the self-defeating cycle of busy many women face. By coaching women in reconnecting with their inner strength, their true needs and values and honoring their own time and energy, they began to reap tremendous rewards. They feel a deeper sense of meaning and purpose that restores their energy and motivation. They are more focused and experience a greater level of success. They finally gave themselves permission for self-nurturing practices that led to increased vitality and confidence. 

Ultimately, they experience more meaning, purpose and fulfilling success every day.
