About Me :
This isn’t your typical “About Me” page filled with certifications and polished achievements. If you’re looking for a highlight reel, you won’t find one here. What you will find is authenticity—because that’s all I know how to be anymore.
I’ve always found the most growth in hearing other people’s stories—the raw, unfiltered versions, not the Instagram-worthy edits. Their experiences, their struggles, their breakthroughs—they always give me new perspectives on my own journey. That’s exactly what I want to do here.
My life may have looked glamorous on the outside, but let me be the first to tell you: glamour doesn’t equal happiness. I’ve been through trauma, loss, and moments that forced me to humble myself and rebuild. But I’ve also had incredible wins, deep joy, and the kind of healing that only comes when you decide to face your past head-on and rewrite your story.
This space—whether it’s my blog, my work, or just our conversations—is all about who I am and why. And if that seems open-ended, that’s because it is. Growth isn’t a destination; it’s an ongoing, evolving process. Every day, every interaction, every book, every insight shapes me.
My purpose is why I keep moving forward, and I want to bring as many people with me as I can. So, if you’re here for real conversations, real transformation, and real connection—welcome. You’re in the right place.

The Love of my Life
If you’ve been following my journey, you know that growth, healing, and authenticity are at the core of everything I do. But what you may not know is that a huge part of my healing has been shaped by the three loves of my life—Milo, Emmie, and Nala.
Let’s start with Milo. ❤️
For years, I didn’t know men like him existed. A man who is compassionate, thoughtful, and understanding. A man who doesn’t just say he loves you, but shows it in the way he listens, the way he respects me and the way he holds steady through the storms. Your partner is supposed to bring out the best in you, and Milo did that for me in so many ways. He’s been my safe place, my biggest supporter, and the kind of person I can be my full self with—flaws, quirks, unfiltered thoughts and all.
My Everyday Joy: Emmie & Nala
If love had four legs and wagging tails, it would look like Emmie and Nala. These two are more than just my dogs—they’re my daily dose of happiness, my best little snuggle buddies, and my constant reminders that unconditional love exists in its purest form.
Every single day, they bring me endless smiles. Whether it’s Emmie’s weirdness or Nala’s playful energy and snuggles, they make even the hardest days feel lighter. They are best friends, always side by side, always keeping each other (and me) entertained. And the best part? With them, I never have to worry about feeling unneeded—because in their eyes, I am their whole world.
I’ve always loved animals, and I always will. They’ve been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I truly believe that everyone should experience the love of a dog at some point in their life. It’s a kind of love that asks for nothing in return but gives you everything in its presence.
So, here’s to Emmie and Nala—the ones who keep my heart full and my home a little fur-covered, just the way I like it. ❤️🐾
My Little Brother, My Best Friend, My Inspiration
Derrick is 14 years younger than me, but he is more than just my little brother—he is my best friend. Life didn’t give us the easiest start. We grew up surrounded by addiction, and when our parents passed away in a single-car accident, he was just nine years old. At the time, he was in foster care, and I was 23—still trying to figure out life myself while carrying the weight of everything we had been through.
His journey was long and hard. The system failed him in ways I couldn’t stop, and addiction took hold of his life, leading him down a painful path. For years, we lost each other—five years of silence, distance, and heartbreak. I didn’t know if he was okay, or if he would ever find his way back. But about three years ago, he did. And it was at exactly the right time.
Now, I have the privilege of walking beside him as he embraces his recovery, and I can say with absolute certainty—he has changed me. I never thought he would be an inspiration to me, but watching his strength, his commitment, and his willingness to heal has made me see life differently. He is doing so well, surrounding himself with a powerful community of people who understand him, support him, and love him for exactly who he is. And right by his side is his amazing girlfriend, whose heart and energy bring so much love into his life.
Derrick is proof that healing is possible, that second chances are real, and that even the hardest roads can lead to something beautiful. He is my brother, my best friend, and one of the greatest blessings in my life. God has been so good to us, and I am beyond grateful that we found our way back to each other. ❤️

I'm a Supplement Junkie!!
Because let’s be real, with all the shortcuts, toxins, and nutrient depletion in our world today, getting everything we need from food alone is nearly impossible. I’ve been living a healthy lifestyle for over 20 years, experimenting with all kinds of supplements, and I finally found the ones I love—minimal ingredients, maximum purpose. Some replace whole meals, while others help me fuel the Lamborghini (aka my body) with everything it needs to function at its best. We have to shift our mindset from just “feeding our hunger” to truly fueling our bodies. Every nutrient matters when it comes to keeping our organs thriving, preventing chronic disease, and living with energy, clarity, and longevity.
Live without..
IsaPro… I almost had a meltdown thinking this was going to be discontinued! So many protein shakes are loaded with fillers and junk your body doesn’t need—but this one keeps it clean. With 18g of high-quality protein and only 3 carbs, it’s the perfect way to boost your oatmeal, smoothie, or just mix into a drink when you need protein but can’t handle another bite of chewy chicken. And it actually delivers on its nutrition facts—no surprises, just solid nutrition. Vanilla is my go-to because it gives you endless options to get creative!
I Can't
This has been my go-to for the past 12 years, and for good reason. It’s my favorite protein meal replacement—perfect for right after a workout or as a quick, nutrient-packed meal when I need to refuel. With 36g of high-quality protein and live digestive enzymes, this shake has seriously leveled up my muscle-building and recovery game. Plus, it actually delivers on its nutrition facts because of the whey it’s processed (see what I did there? ). No fillers, no nonsense—just the perfect recovery drink to keep you feeling strong and nourished.
Anti-aging!! Better Sleep and less Inflammation. Let’s be real—aging and modern life has us running on empty, out of sync, and wondering why we’re so exhausted. That’s where this powerhouse trio comes in. Core 3 is a complete reset for your metabolism, energy, and aging process. With these products you’re giving your body exactly what it needs to wake up refreshed, handle stress like a pro, and keep your mind and body sharp for years to come. No more wasted supplements that don’t absorb or do the job—this 1-2-3 system delivers fast, effective results so you can get back to feeling strong, vibrant, and in control.
Every day, our bodies are bombarded with toxins—from the air we breathe, the food we eat, and even the stress we carry. Your liver, the ultimate multitasker, works hard to filter out these toxins and keep you thriving. When your liver gets overwhelmed, it can leave you feeling sluggish, bloated, and just… off. That’s where proper nutrition, movement, and targeted support come in. These products gives your body what it needs to detox naturally, so you can feel energized, clear-headed, and fully you again. Let’s get your body working with you, not against you!
