Who i am

I’m a Certified Cosmic Smash Book™ Guide and a Certified Intentional Creativity Teacher. These practices are woven into the heart of my work — helping women slow down, listen inward, and create from a place of deep connection.

As a pre-teen, I was spellbound by books — they became my escape. My first job was at the local library, where I proudly stamped due date cards and kept the shelves tidy. I didn’t know it then, but I was already learning how to hold space for stories. Writing and making art became regular companions in my life.

In my early twenties, as a young mother, I enrolled in creative writing courses, began self-publishing zines, and saw my words published in both print and digital spaces. That season changed me. I experienced the healing power of storytelling.

That experience sparked a passion that would guide the rest of my life. In 2004, I began my journey as a creative business owner. Since then, I’ve been mentoring writers through the messy, sacred process of telling their stories. I help women trust their voice and stretch into the visibility that often feels too risky to reach for alone.

After experiencing the sudden death of my husband in 2018, my desire to empower women to pursue their goals — with intention, courage, and community — has been stronger than ever.

I use art, journaling — not just for expression, but for healing, grounding, and becoming more intimate with your inner voice.

What I Believe

  • I believe we write from where we are, not where we think we’re supposed to be.

  • I believe creativity is sacred.

  • I believe structure should support your vision, not smother it.

  • I believe your story is your medicine — and it’s meant to be shared.

  • I believe creativity flourishes in community — and we’re not meant to do this alone.

How I Work

My approach blends intuitive structure with intentional creativity, soulful ritual, and deep listening. Whether you’re working with me 1:1, inside a group container, or through one of my self-guided offerings, the goal is the same: for you to feel more like you at the end of the process.

I help you meet the parts of yourself that are asking to be seen and held.

The Circles I Hold

I don’t just guide individuals — I build circles. Whether through my group programs, monthly YouTube workshops, or collaborative offerings, I believe in the power of gathering — to reflect, create, and be witnessed.

This is the kind of community where your story is honored, and your process is welcomed.

A Peek Into Sacred Roots Farmstead

When I’m not supporting women through creativity, I’m tending to my homestead: Sacred Roots Farmstead.

It’s a space where zines are made, herbs are harvested, chickens roam, and slow creative living is honored. It’s where I root myself — and remember what it means to live cyclically, honestly, and with care.
