What is your definition of strength?
What about resilience?
​
"The same boiling water that softens the potato hardens the egg"
​
We often have the idea that both strength & resilience require toughness & a stoic rebirth of you.
Those of us who have been kicked in the a$% by life tend to be independent & self reliant...
This is often at the cost of our personal relationships or wellness.

Strength & resilience are truly about preserving & protecting yourself from the potential harm of life's happenings by using the resources within you & around you.
​
My resiliency programs were created to combat stress & prevent burnout.
​Stop settling, start thriving.

a little about my experience & how I got here...

I began working in the helping profession in 2007 as a child protection worker. I was immediately drawn to the hardcore, roll your sleeves up type of work!
The kind that makes you feel like you’re really making a difference in the world. The kind that also keeps you awake at night knowing about the evil that lives in the world.

I went on to become a clinical therapist & drug & alcohol clinician, treating high risk individuals with trauma, anxiety & addiction. After working 10+ years of clinical work, I was tired, drained & knew I wasn’t alone. As a family member of several first responders, I watched a similar process occur within them.

​This lead me to my current destination…
Coaching, consulting & educating about the cost of high stress careers while building resilience to prevent burnout in individuals, teams & organizations.

​My goal is to change first responder culture by creating trauma informed agency norms that bridge the gap between company vision & employee need.
​
The result? Physically & mentally healthy workers that thrive, perform better & remember their “why” for entering their career.
