At times, I found it was more comfortable to sink into the mold I created, so I could hide from the pain of my past. It wasn’t pretty, but at least it felt easier than facing the truth of my loneliness. It felt easier than showing those closest to me that I was stuck. And it was much easier to slip into this abyss instead of making any changes within myself. Besides, what changes would I have made? At that time, I didn’t even know what “doing things differently” even looked like. I was trying to protect myself by creating a safety net that became more like a wall, slowly going up around me. It was hard for me to escape, and it was also nearly impossible for anyone to come in. That is when I was introduced to personal development, working with coaches and doing the work. What looked like coincidence was grace finding me at rock bottom.

While I was trying to be grateful for this new picture, I was a little skeptical of any changes that could happen within me. Regardless, I was tired of doing things my way and not seeing the results I wanted. I was essentially doing the same things over and over, hoping for different results. I became really good at rushing through life but ultimately, I was willing to do things differently and trust the process. Working with my coaches, I got to put my steps into motion. I started breaking the chains and taking responsibility for my actions. I leaned in and continued to break down the walls which kept me from spiraling up. I was doing the work, and grace was meeting me in it.

By choosing to take those first steps, I released and cleared all the things that were no longer serving me. I was able to keep the positive learnings from my past, while enabling even more space for better things to come, serving a higher purpose in my life - things I actually wanted.  

My purpose through coaching is to serve women, like you, who carry the weight of sexual abuse in their past. I work one-on-one with women who are done surviving that past and ready to build from it. Together you release what's no longer serving you, restore the self-trust that quietly went missing, and rebuild a foundation that holds. You continue your journey knowing that you are held along the way too.
