a little more...

As a kid, when someone asked, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” my answer was always the same:

“Happy.”

​

Not rich, not important—just happy. I wasn’t chasing titles or trying to squeeze into someone else’s version of success. I imagined a life filled with joy, laughter, unconditional love, a full kitchen, and a table where there was always room for one more.

​

Even in college interviews when they hit me with, “Where do you see yourself in five years?”—I’d say it again:

“Happy.”

It sounded simple, but now I know that happiness—real, soul-deep happiness—is one of the bravest things we can aim for.

Fast forward to today: I’m a sober millennial mom, Amazon enthusiast, and recipe-obsessed happiness coach. I’ve traded wild nights and wine hangovers for early mornings, heavy lifting, toddler giggles, and Googling “what’s for dinner” more often than I’d like to admit.

​

And yes—I’m almost a year sober.

Sobriety saved my life and gave me back everything I was looking for: clarity, connection, and the capacity to actually enjoy the little things. Like slow mornings, soft breezes, and homemade banana bread that doesn’t come from a box.

​

That deep desire to build a joyful life?

It’s stronger than ever—and it’s now my life’s work.

​

I’m a Certified Happiness Coach and Positive Psychology Practitioner with training in CBT, NLP, EFT, somatic work, and advanced mindset practices. But more importantly? I’m a mom who gets it. I know what it’s like to feel like you’re drowning in to-dos, running on fumes, and wondering if the best parts of you are still in there somewhere.

​

That’s why I created this space:
To help you create a life that feels like yours again.

​

Whether you’re in recovery, in the trenches of motherhood, or just ready for a reset—you’ll find tools here that actually work, recipes that don’t require 27 ingredients, and stories that remind you you’re not alone.

​

So grab that lukewarm coffee (I see you), pull up a chair, and let’s build something beautiful from the messy middle. Together.
