My Journey

👩‍🏫 Through a decade of teaching and coaching and burning out, I have learned a great deal about what it takes to build work/life balance from the ground up.

😓 For eight consecutive years, I completely ignored my overall wellbeing in favor of working 12 hour days where I taught all day and coached volleyball all night and many weekends as well.

😵‍💫 I honestly have no idea how I got through that, but by the time it was over I had chronic headaches most days of the week accompanied by a healthy (I mean unhealthy) serving of depression.

🕵️‍♀️ I took a deep look inside of myself (for the first time ever maybe?) and realized I needed self-expression to be a part of my daily routine. I needed space and time to hide away after sensory overload and I needed to surround myself with good energy! So now I am a designer, working from home, picking and choosing clients who bring the good vibes!!
