A little more about me
For me, this work didn’t start as a career - it started as a need.
I spent 30 years in grocery retail, working long days on my feet on a concrete floor.
Over time, I developed plantar fasciitis, that was painful with every step, and still kept pushing through because that’s what I knew I had to do.
The pain was constant. By the end of the day, it was exhausting - not just physically, but mentally. Eventually, I got used to it. It was just part of my normal.
I tried what I could - medication, stretching, rest. Some things helped temporarily, but nothing really changed.
When I finally saw a podiatrist, I received treatment that gave short-term relief, and it didn’t last. Around that same time, I was referred to a reflexologist - and that’s where things began to shift.
“It wasn’t about pushing harder - it was about having the right tools.”
The first thing I noticed was simple: the feet that walked in were not the same feet that walked out. The pain was lower.
And that night, I slept better than I had in a long time.
I continued with regular sessions - and over time, it wasn’t just the reflexology.
During the treatment, I was diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis, something I hadn’t even known was part of what I had been dealing with.
With the combination of consistent reflexology and the changes I had already been making, things began to shift in a way I hadn’t experienced before, and within months, I was pain-free for the first time in a long time.
Years later, I experienced the impact of life coaching - understanding patterns like procrastination and self-talk, and learning how to approach things in a way that actually worked for me.
It wasn’t about pushing harder - it was about having the right tools.
That combination: Working with the body and the mind
changed everything for me.
