From the outside, maybe your life looks picture-perfect too—career, success, the image of “having it all together.” But inside? You might feel stuck in a nightmare you can’t wake up from—running on fumes, numbing out, or chasing anything that offers a temporary break from the chaos in your head.
I get it, because I lived it. For years, I escaped through alcohol, drugs, relationships—anything to quiet the storm. That worked… until it didn’t. In 2018, a routine knee replacement left me in worse pain than before. I became disabled for months, and everything I’d built felt like it was slipping away.
That moment forced me to find a new way—tools that didn’t numb, but actually healed. Tools that rewired my nervous system, released pain, and gave me more than I ever thought possible. That’s how I discovered Cognomovement—the game changer that allowed me to create a life even better than the one I’d been chasing. By 2024, just six years after being disabled, I crossed the finish line of a half marathon.
My journey, combined with formal Cognomovement and coaching training, has uniquely positioned me to guide others through similar struggles. Today, through workshops, online programs, group coaching, and 1:1 VIP work, I share the exact tools that helped me not only heal, but finally enjoy life for the first time.
Because your story isn’t over. It may just be beginning.
