While preparing divorce papers, something spoke to my heart: "Not yet."

Learning to trust that quiet voice, even when most of my loved ones disagreed, changed everything.

My husband and I began rebuilding ourselves and our relationship.

We tried marriage counseling, which was not very helpful, sometimes even harmful.

So we spent several years figuring it out on our own — studying books and other resources, finding the right courses, the right mentors.

We had to learn how to communicate effectively, how to work through hard things as a team, and how to replace anger with compassion, resentment with connection.

Together we created an online course called Intimate Communication to help couples bring back emotional and physical intimacy.

I'm now becoming certified as a Relational Life Therapy coach, in the final stage of completing my certification.

I also hold certifications in NLP, Timeline Therapy®, and Hypnotherapy.

I was a teen mom. A single mom for eleven years. I've been married 25 years. I have six amazing kids, three fantastic step kids, and six wonderful grandchildren.
