You’ve spent your life trying to do everything “right.”
You’ve been the peacekeeper, the fixer, the one who carries the emotional weight of others—especially family. And yet, something still feels off. You’re exhausted, disconnected from yourself, and unsure how to move forward without guilt.
I get it—because I’ve been there.
And now, I help women like you heal old wounds, set healthy boundaries, and step into the freedom and purpose God has for them.
There was a time in my life when everything looked “put together” on the outside. I thought I liked it that way. It felt emotionally “safe”, not letting others in, not having any needs, but inside, I felt lonely, overwhelmed by anxiety, striving, and self-doubt. Like many women who grew up in emotionally immature homes, I learned to survive by becoming the good girl, the peacekeeper, the one who tried to do everything right. But the cost of perfectionism is steep: emotional exhaustion, disconnection from your true self, and the constant fear of disappointing others.
For years, I tried to manage my relationships through people-pleasing and over-functioning. I believed that if I just worked hard enough, prayed long enough, and said things the right way, I could fix broken relational dynamics and finally feel seen, safe, and loved.
But after a major health crisis at 28, I could no longer ignore the toll this was taking on my well-being. I began to see the damage that unresolved generational patterns had caused in my relationships and my own heart. It became clear that something had to change—not out of bitterness, but out of a desire to grow, heal, and build a different future for myself, my marriage, and my children.
Through a lot of prayer, study, and coaching, I came to understand that honoring your parents does not mean tolerating harm. It means seeking peace and truth. It means setting boundaries that protect what God is building in you. It means healing your heart so you can show up with compassion, not codependency.
My story isn’t about estrangement—though that was part of my journey for a season. It’s about finding the freedom to relate differently. To stop repeating the same painful patterns. To understand yourself more deeply, love more freely, and choose connection over control. And most of all, it’s about rooting your worth in Christ—not in what others think or how well you perform.
That’s why I do what I do.
As a Christian life coach, I now help women break free from perfectionism, people-pleasing, and the confusion that comes from growing up with emotionally immature parents. Together, we build the tools and confidence to create healthy, respectful relationships; with boundaries that are firm, loving, and aligned with God’s truth.
If you’re ready to stop striving and start living a life rooted in freedom, healing, and joy, I’m here to walk with you, friend.
