My Story: From Broken To Unstoppable

Transforming A Broken Body & Life Into An Unstoppable, Unconventional Force

I'm a firm believer that if you're feeling stuck in where you are in life, skydiving is just the remedy to shock you out of the mundane. The adrenaline rush followed by peaceful floating is like no other experience in the world and works wonders to pull you out of a funk and into a creative state where you can do some of your best thinking.

Skydive

But… I Wasn't Always This Way…

During my time in the Navy, I spent 8 months serving in the Middle East, which came to an end when I was medically evacuated back to the US in 2005 with a sudden onset of chronic autoimmune problems and a seizure disorder. The following 8 years I endured complex partial seizures, acute muscle weakness, demyelinating polyneuropathy, Lupus, Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia, tachycardia, hypotension, adrenal fatigue, MS, short-term memory loss, debilitating anxiety, depression, chronic migraines, insomnia, Raynaud's, hair loss, difficulty focusing/learning, chronic bronchitis, Traumatic Brain Injury, and several failed suicide attempts. I was told at 26 to prepare to not live past 30 and to embrace any type of mobility because that would soon be lost.

I had lost my career… was homeless… and lost hope of ever having a “normal” or satisfying life. My mindset was fully engulfed in everything that was “wrong” compared to how I had envisioned my life to be. All my dreams and goals were crushed. I had no motivation… I lost friendships… I lost myself…

To pour salt in my wounds, while being fitted for crutches to help me walk (the kind that grips the upper arm), I saw an obese veteran watching me stumble with a tear running down his face. He told me that I looked like him not 5 years ago. He was strapped to a machine that bicycled his legs for him, unable to use his legs on his own. I prayed to God, begging him to end my suffering, by whatever means possible, but if he kept me alive, I would shout it from the mountains, and never stop using my story to inspire other people to heal “incurable” ailments and overcome “impossible” life seasons using His guidance.

Then, after countless prayers and begging God to end my suffering, while questioning why he allows so many people to suffer so badly… my life once again turned upside down. My neurologist had me try a new medication, which forced me to the emergency room with liver failure and pancreatitis. After that, I followed my strengthening intuitive nudges spent an hour talking to my neurologist about the possibility of trying natural methods to control my ailments. He said they'd kill me faster, and melodramatically laughed as I left his office. I tried it anyway, feeling strangely despite limited research backing up my idea and my neurologist's warnings, and also feeling ok with my life ending if he was right… and. it. healed. me.

There is only one place those intuitive nudges could have come from: God.

The natural “woo woo nonsense” of intuitively using nutrition as medicine and decreasing my toxin exposure at home provided my body with enough support and reduced enough of my body's chemical burden that enabled me to experience a rapid and dramatic healing process that turned my world upside down, gave me a second chance at life, and provided me with a purpose: to be a beacon light shining into your darkness… to show you that with God, all things are possible… and even “impossible healing” can happen.

I am living proof of “miraculous healing,” and am shining my light to help you on your journey… whether you need proof it can happen, or help to make it happen… I'm here for you. More than anything, I’m grateful for my faith, for my family, for the people in my life, and for my life. Without all these life experiences, I could have never become a loving mother, a skilled mentor, or have the impact I’ve inspired throughout other lives. Thank you for taking the time to read my story.

Now… I'm loving every moment of my crazy life, playing with my two young kids that I was told would be impossible, snuggling with my two giant dogs, and enjoying time with my husband. I'm fully functioning without needing my wheelchair, walker, crutches, or cane (in fact, I gave them all away in 2018). I'm walking, jogging, hiking, dancing, creating… and loving every second of it. I'm very passionate about creating work-from-home opportunities (err… well.. work from anywhere with cellphone service or internet access), earning 12 different streams of income that enable me to enjoy more time with my Loves and have nothing holding me back from living the most fulfilled life possible.

If you have an interest in working with me, please feel welcome to send me a message.

If you've read this long into my story… that tells me either you're intrigued with who I am or you really like to read…

This gave me the tools to work my way up to becoming a certified master coach, furthering my journey in developing Christian leaders.
