For over 20 years, I thrived in the high-pressure, fast-paced world of mortgage leadership. I loved the challenge, but as my hormones began to shift, cracks started to show. Stress felt harder to manage. My patience wore thin. Fatigue became constant. My once-sharp memory turned foggy.

The woman who could handle anything suddenly couldn’t — and I kept pushing through in silence.

Then came New Year’s Day 2022 — my ultimate wake-up call. One misstep at my in-laws’ house sent me face-first into a brick wall (yes, as dramatic as it sounds). That trip to the ER led to an MRI, and finally to the answers I’d been searching for: Hashimoto’s disease and perimenopause.

Looking back, the signs had been there for years — unexplained weight gain, thinning hair, constant body aches, brain fog so heavy it slowed my response time in meetings, even episodes of SVT and depression I kept hidden. I was running on empty, both at work and at home.

That brick wall moment could’ve been the end of my story. Instead, it became the beginning of my fresh start. With persistence (and a team of doctors who finally dug deeper), I used my training in nutrition, yoga, and breathwork to rebuild my health from the inside out.

I balanced my hormones, restored my energy, and reconnected to the confident woman I thought I’d lost.

Today, I feel lighter, stronger, and sharper than I did in my 20s. My journey taught me this: hormone imbalance doesn’t just affect your body — it affects your career, your confidence, your leadership, your whole life. But with the right tools and support, you can rewrite what this next chapter looks like.

You deserve to feel sharp, energized, and confident again - in your body, your leadership, and your life.
