About Ascension Wellness
My Wellness Journey
Like many individuals, I’ve experienced the tumultuous nature and trials that life often presents. I’ve navigated the realms of marriage, divorce, and the demanding role of a single working mother to three children. Juggling multiple jobs seven days a week, financial struggles, and entanglement in emotionally draining relationships were all part of my challenging journey.
These periods were personally demanding, shaping the woman I am today and influencing the example I aimed to set for my children. A quality that has been a constant companion to me is the gift of positivity and optimism, proving invaluable during the darker phases of my life. Despite facing considerable adversity, I also recognized my blessings. I was healthy, active, educated, employed, dedicated to being the best mother possible, resilient in putting myself forward, and continually striving for professional development.
Despite the circumstances, I acknowledged that my situation could have been more dire. While aspiring for personal growth and yearning for more, I found success in various aspects of my life. Yet, I understood the need for ongoing efforts and consistently adapted to position myself for a better future.
While the responsibility for making these changes rested solely on me, it’s crucial to acknowledge that I wasn’t undertaking this journey in isolation. Therapists, mentors, family, friends, and a supportive community surrounded me – all integral components contributing to my personal growth. Recognizing the challenge of embracing transparency and vulnerability, I emphasize that sharing one’s unfiltered truth paves the way for enlightenment.
I share my experiences with the hope that you, too, realize you’re not alone. We all grapple with pain, trauma, fear, and challenges on varying scales, and having a community to lean on is a fundamental element of your success.
Having served numerous clients in non-profit wellness, corporate wellness, community wellness, and personal wellness since 2006 has been an immense honor. The invaluable relationships forged over the years and witnessing both my clients and organizations thrive constitute my purpose and passion.
My diverse background equips me with a comprehensive and broad perspective, enabling me to effectively coach individuals & companies towards achieving their wellness objectives. It is a tremendous privilege to collaborate with you on this journey!
