We’re here to make a difference…

I help Legacy Builders: parents, entrepreneurs, and leaders align their inner world with their outer impact so they make clear decisions, lead confidently, and create lasting influence.

I built this business as an embodiment of my own journey in returning home to myself. I get it - life is busy and we’re balancing a million things.

My Legacy Story

I began my journey toward becoming a psychologist over a decade ago, fueled by an unwavering passion to help children reach their fullest potential. I’ve always felt deeply called to be of service—to contribute to something greater and make the world a better place. While that calling hasn’t changed, my path has taught me one of the most important lessons: you can’t truly serve others until you’ve learned to pour into yourself.

As I moved through my career, I sought out job changes, returned to school to pursue my doctorate, and even made a cross-country move (more than once)—all in hopes of relieving the dissatisfaction and burnout I was experiencing. But no matter how many external changes I made, that familiar sense of exhaustion and disconnection always followed me. On paper, I was a high-achieving, successful professional. But internally, I felt like a fraud. My work was draining, and my life felt increasingly unsustainable.

My Legacy Story


Where It Started

I know what it feels like to push too hard, doubt your choices, and lose touch with your own wisdom. For years, I tried to follow the traditional path: study hard, work harder, achieve more. But even with success on paper, I felt drained, overwhelmed, and disconnected from the life I truly wanted. As a result, I was burnt out, chronically ill, and feeling like the circsumstances of my life were compeltely out of my control.

The Turning Point

Eventually, I reached a breaking point. I knew I had to turn inward and began working with a therapist and coach for support and guidance. That process illuminated something major: the traditional talk therapy model I had been trained in wasn’t working for me. I needed something deeper, more embodied, more intuitive.

And that’s when everything began to shift.

A New Way Forward

Through my own healing journey, I founded Flow State Coaching and Consulting, a holistic approach to wellness that honors both the intuitive and the psychological. Instead of focusing solely on what’s “wrong,” my work highlights your inherent gifts, creating more space, balance, and clarity in your life.

Flow State Emerges

Flow State was born from a desire to help Legacy Builders reconnect with their intuitive, sensitive nature—to create a regulated, purposeful, and fulfilling life in a world that often prioritizes logic over embodiment.

For much of my life, I too was caught in the loop of overthinking and over-intellectualizing. Through my journey, I realized that our greatest guidance and clarity comes from the wisdom held in our bodies. When we learn to listen to that inner knowing, we not only unlock healing—but also the path to our truest desires and most meaningful impact.

How will your impact be remembered?

What sets Flow State apart is that it’s not just mindset work or surface-level strategies, it’s about real, lasting change. I combine my experience with a PhD in psychology, with what I call Intuitive Coaching, using practical tools like somatic practices, nervous system regulation, and hands-on strategies to help clients get unstuck, make clear decisions, and take action that works for their life or business.

Whether you’re struggling with parenting challenges, navigating stress or trauma, or trying to grow a business that actually works for you, I guide you to cut through the noise, find clarity, and take steps that lead to real results fast.

At its core, Flow State is about helping you regain control, trust your instincts, and put systems and practices in place so you can create a life or business that feels functional, manageable, and effective.
