I am a health and wellness entrepreneur with a Bachelor of Arts in psychology, masters degree in nursing, and certification as an American Council of Fitness (ACE) group fitness instructor, certified health and nutrition life coach and certified Jazzercise instructor® . Over the course of my 20 + years in healthcare I have witnessed the challenges that we all have with regards to diabetes, chronic kidney disease, heart disease, obesity, anxiety, stress, GI issues, depression and many others. 

​

My long-term dream has been to provide help and care to others and assist with acquiring a better quality of life while managing illness. I started on this journey as a health care provider and chronic disease patient ( asthma, ulcerative colitis and pre-diabetes). Now I continue my journey as a life coach and fitness instructor. In 2024 I was overweight and my A1c went up to 6.5 % which is technically Diabetes Type 2. As I dealt with chronic elevated blood sugar I thought that I was healthy since I exercised, ate responsibly and watched portion sizes. However, once I started my own Embody Sage journey and researched and prepared for my webinar series I realized that I needed to do more. I dug in, followed the tips and techniques that I presented in my webinars and am glad to say that I am not on any diabetes medication, I have lost 24 pounds and my blood sugar levels are now back to the pre-diabetic range (5.9 %). This health transformation has motivated me even more to share information so that others  they can have their own transformations.

With Embody Sage, I will provide information for participants to acquire knowledge of the body, what it needs to thrive and function well and the tools that they can use to reach personal goals. Webinars on health promotion and fitness, exercise tips and availability for corporate educational classes will be some of the strategies used to achieve this mission. From a holistic health perspective, environmental wellness is also essential for total health and well being. Opportunities for gaining knowledge and tools for the improvement of environmental health will also be presented.
