About 

I often say, half joking but fully believing, that yoga and Jesus saved my life.

After the birth of my fifth baby, healing stopped being something I practiced and became my lifeline. A traumatic childbirth injury left me in constant physical pain, barely able to walk. I felt broken, not just in my body, but emotionally and mentally. Disconnected from myself in a way I didn't have words for.

So I came back to my mat.

Through gentle movement, breath, prayer, and presence, something began to shift. I wasn't just healing. I was remembering who I was. Each session became a release, of pain, of grief, of the version of myself I'd been holding onto out of survival. And slowly, I came back.

That experience cracked me open and lit a fire in me that hasn't gone out since.

The truth is, this work found me long before that season. As a child I had a natural ability to read the energy in a room and deeply feel what others carried. I was always barefoot, grounding myself without even realizing it, fascinated by my mother's herbal remedies. When my younger brother battled cancer, I watched plants and essential oils support him in ways that medicine alone couldn't reach. Something in me knew then that this kind of healing was part of my path.

I went on to complete 500 hours of yoga training, became a certified Reiki Master, and deepened my practice through herbalism, sound healing, somatic movement, meditation, and ecstatic dance. These modalities didn't feel new when I found them. They felt like a return to what I'd always known.

I'm also a mother of five, holding down the fort while my husband travels for work, which means I understand intimately what it feels like to pour from an empty cup 

Today I hold space for people who are where I've been, in the depths, disconnected, carrying more than their bodies were meant to hold alone. I know what it feels like to need someone to truly see you. That's what I'm here to offer.

One of my favorite questions to ask is: how's your heart? Your emotional, physical, and spiritual heart. Because when we speak and feel from the heart, we open the door to healing, connection, and grace, both for ourselves and for others.

That's why I named this work Desert Heart Healing. It's a reflection of the place I love, and the healing that happens when we lead with heart.
