Trauma-Informed Workshop Facilitator | Foster Parent | Creator of Strong From the Inside Out™
From Surviving to Strong
For most of my life, I moved through the world quietly. I thought shrinking was safer than taking up space. Life, motherhood, and 15+ years fostering children with big feelings and even bigger stories taught me something profound:
Strength isn't loud. Strength is steady. Strength is who you decide to become when the world gets heavy.
My journey hasn't been perfect. It's been messy, emotional, and transformative. I had to learn how to regulate my nervous system. I had to unlearn the belief that I wasn't enough. I had to rebuild myself piece by piece.
Through that process, I found something powerful:
- My voice
- My confidence
- My purpose
And now, I bring that experience to groups, teams, and organizations, teaching tools and strategies that build resilience, confidence, and emotional strength from the inside out.
