I grew up exploring and playing in the mountains of Northern Utah where my inner hippie chick was born. It was there that I developed a love for nature and a curiosity about the world around me. It sparked a desire to have adventures and different experiences. I will be forever grateful for my youth, for good times and challenges, because it shaped who I am today. Little did I know that the most pivotal experience in my youth would be the catalyst for my career and my own healing journey.

At 20 years old, I was in a devastating car accident with my dear friend Stephanie. We were hit by a drunk driver. She did not survive and for a few weeks it seemed I wouldn’t. My injuries were from head to toe with the most challenging being multiple head injuries and the trauma of witnessing the death of my friend. I had to learn how to read and write all over again, how to piece together information, how to move in a world my brain didn’t understand spatially and at the same time try to forget all of the images of my friend and the accident scene. As I forged ahead relearning and recovering I was also faced with overcoming. I’m certain you’ve heard before “what doesn’t destroy you, strengthens you.” I went on to college where I received my BA in Geography from the University of South Carolina. It was there that I met and married my husband (my greatest cheerleader, confidant, reality checker and dearest friend). Unfortunately, we weren’t able to have any children and as I navigated that period of our marriage, I found ways to nurture that longing by serving the youth in our church and adopting cats. We currently have two cats, Max and Leo, who take their self-appointed job as “emotional support animals” very seriously and will be involved in your session if allowed.

Eckhart Tolle once said, “You find peace not by rearranging the circumstances of your life but by realizing who you are at the deepest level.”

Needless to say, I believe in our unlimited power of self-transformation we all have within. I’ve learned that every thought we think and word we use is creating our reality. I’ve spent the past 20 years learning how to heal adverse life events. I’ve become a board-certified Hypnotherapist, Holistic Wellness Practitioner and Certified Life Success Coach.

I’m so passionate about helping people live better. I’m on a mission to help others feel whole and complete by healing and restoring your energy to the natural vibrations of the universe as you were intended. I know firsthand that believing in yourself, your abilities, loving and accepting yourself, being comfortable and confident in your own skin and letting go of any past habits that belong in the past is completely possible! The energy we are putting into today is creating our tomorrow.

I’ve been able to overcome debilitating depression and trauma, to become the person I am today. Someone who is still becoming her best self, proud of how far she has come, excited and looking forward to what’s next. I feel like I found the “secret sauce” and can’t wait to share it.

If you are on a quest for optimal health and well-being, let’s look at the five key areas to wholeness: physical, emotional, social, spiritual, and mental. This holistic approach involves healing all of you; past and present. I want to embark on this transformational journey with YOU towards wholeness. You’re not alone, I’ve got your back. We can do this together.

Let’s get you started because YOU are the most powerful force in your life. YOU have the capability to transform yourself. Together we will help you Become the best you, Embrace the best you and Thrive as the best you. BET on yourself!

Forever in your corner,

Jennifer
