Who do I think I am?

As Morning Meds continues to take shape in my heart and mind, a vision I hold so dearly, I sometimes hear that inner voice whisper,

“But who am I to do this? How can I convince others it's worth listening to?

Who am I to believe kids will sit still long enough to make a change, that I can make a difference? I’m not a Guru… or am I?”

And then I stop… and I remember exactly who I am.

I am the undoubting student who went for the lead role in the school play - on a whim - and got it.
I am a fourth-grade slalom skier grown into a woman who knows her edge, thank you very much.
I am the mother who learned how to juggle it all while raising four kids on her own - with grit and heart.
I am the reformed warrior who clawed her way out of drug addiction.
I am the fitness instructor who inspired women across a 40-mile radius to show up, dig deep, and feel strong in their bodies again.

I am the trekker who journeyed ten days through the Himalayas just to sleep beneath the stars at the base of the world’s highest peak - Sagarmatha, Mt. Everest.

I am the female boss who ran a male-dominant diesel engine business for two decades, confidently I might say.
I am the fearless solo hiker who crushed 52 miles across the Ruby Mountains Wilderness, alone.

I have lived. I have fought. I have won.

I’ve spoken in schools, churches, and community spaces, sharing my story of recovery, grit, and redemption. Life has tested me in every way, and I’ve put my ‘big girl pants’ on more times than I can count. I know pain, fear, destitution, loneliness, and hunger - not just metaphorically, but literally. And still, I rise.

No, I’m not a meditation expert by textbook standards.
But I am an expert in real life.
In resilience. In transformation. In connection to something bigger than us.
I am a student of mindfulness, of intuition, of healing.

Meditation has helped me reclaim peace. It has grounded me. It has opened my heart to the blessings of deep, sacred connection - with myself, with others, and with something greater.

And now?
Now I am honored and fired up to bring this gift to the next generation. To help children, in their most tender and formative years, learn how to find safety within themselves. To guide them into their intuition, into their light, into their truth.

In a world that often feels uncertain, I feel called - deeply called - to be part of the solution. To nurture a new generation rooted in self-awareness, compassion, joy, and authenticity.

I see the shift.
I feel it coming.
And I know… I know… I was made for this.

So no, I don’t have all the answers. But I have my story, my scars, my strength, and my soul. And I will share every bit of it in service of this beautiful vision we’re building - together.

Coming to a place within

Where nothing has changed, but

Everything is different
