I’m a Mom, partner, coach, entrepreneur and Army veteran.
At the time of my son’s birth in 2012, I was really struggling. Still serving in the Army, I was married to someone in the absolute throes of opiate addiction. I commuted three hours a day to work a job that didn’t pay me nearly what I was worth, and my bank account was drained as soon as my paycheck hit it.
I knew something had to change, and fast.
This was not the life I wanted to live.
I felt like I was spinning in circles, never moving forward- it was always one step forward and two steps back. I’d try to improve my finances, and work would suffer. Or, I’d try to get on a good routine at the gym and eat healthfully, but my heart and mind wasn’t in it. I was constantly stressed, wavering
between anxiety and depression and I desperately wanted to improve my life, but things were moving SO slowly in the right direction, I thought I’d never get to where I wanted to be- for my son and for me.
I just didn’t know where to start.
I didn’t know how to get that ball rolling.
I wasn’t even clear on what I truly wanted for myself.

All I knew for sure is that I needed more money, some organization in my life, and some freedom to not constantly be stressed.
Fast-forward a year later, and I was well on my way to freedom and fulfillment. I no longer felt trapped,
anxious and stuck. In my search to get my life really on track, I decided I needed to find or create the
tools- the real, tangible steps- to square away what I knew my best life could be.
Some stuff I knew I needed to just DO. Like, really just set my mind to.
Some stuff I figured out by learning from others, and by getting around the right people with the right
opportunities.
Most of it I figured out through trial and error.
Most importantly, I made the decision that I was going to change it all up. I was going to make the life I
wanted for myself and for my son.
It was time to make that Better Life!
