IDeally YOU was born from my own struggles and experiences. Deep down, I have always known I was called to something bigger than myself. I believe God deposited something in each of us that the world can only experience when we fully develop the gifts He has given us. I believe God has given me many gifts, and I feel responsible for developing those for His honor and glory. 

My love for health and fitness started as a young girl, reading my mother’s Prevention magazine without fail every month when I would get to her classroom after school.

All throughout elementary and high school and into college as an athlete, my enthusiasm for athletics and fitness continued to grow. It wasn’t until I became pregnant with my first son that I looked at health from a holistic wellness perspective. I began to understand that the choices I made affected more than just myself. While sports taught me that my choices affected more than just myself, the true wake-up call was having my first child. Health at that point became less about the number on the scale and more about the overall health of my child and myself. This unborn child was at the mercy of my choices. It really is crazy how God’s love is revealed through your children. My love for health and wellness has grown exponentially ever since. 

Now, I get to live out my passion of helping others discover the greatness inside of you through growth, healing, and wellness. It would be the highest honor to help you begin the journey to the best you!
