Cancer Recovery Coach

In 2022, at the age of 38, I was diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer. What followed was a whirlwind of six months of chemotherapy, surgery, radiation, and a year and a half of antibody therapy. This experience transformed me, not only physically but on a deeper level that shifted my purpose and perspective in life.

Throughout my treatment, I leaned on medical expertise but also embraced a holistic approach to healing. I found strength in nourishing my body through healthy eating, staying active, and practicing mindfulness, helping me navigate the challenging months ahead and also revealed to me how lifestyle changes can powerfully support recovery.

It was often the smaller, less-discussed side effects that opened my eyes to the true needs of the body in healing. Through this journey, I grew deeply interested in functional health, nutrition, and stress management; focusing on what it truly takes to live well after cancer. Over the past few years, I’ve dedicated myself to health coaching, drawing from both my personal experiences and professional training to support others in reclaiming their health.

While simultaneously undergoing my own cancer treatment, my mother was also diagnosed with cancer, forcing me to not only wear the hat of the patient, but that of the caregiver as well. Seeing cancer and cancer recovery from this perspective helped me to understand the loneliness and fear loved ones often go through while helping someone who is sick.

My own path ignited a profound purpose: to help others find strength, resilience, and well-being beyond cancer. Today, as a cancer recovery coach, I am passionate about offering knowledge, emotional support, and practical guidance to those on similar journeys. My greatest inspiration comes from the cancer survivors I meet and their loved ones—their stories, courage, and determination continually humble me and remind me of why I love what I do.
