Roll the Tape Back…
My journey began with two aspects: My mental and physical health. Both, I knew were important but I never realized how important the two were to each other until I used both simultaneously.
After acknowledging my desire to get more out of life and be healthier, the tough pill to swallow followed: the desire alone was not enough. I needed to make the conscious choice to change and the continuous effort of action to implement the change into my day-to-day life. This meant saying goodbye to unhealthy relationships, jobs, places, habits, you name it!
I was diagnosed with anxiety and depression at age 13. I remember asking my therapist at the time, “Ok, so how do I cure this?” She looked at me with soft eyes and said, “There is no cure, but medication can help.”
I felt frozen in time at that moment, thinking, “Am I going to be ‘sick’ forever?” I could not accept that there would be no cure or solution and that medication was going to be something I HAD to take every day. I was determined to find an outlet to let my mind rest and my body release all the tension and frustration I had accumulated thus far. Running and exercise became my saving grace and ultimately saved my life!
Fast forward to seven years later, at the beginning of 2020, right before COVID-19, I tried to take my own life. From 2019 to 2020, I stopped running as much and moved my body in due to moving out of my childhood home at 19 years old and embarking on a new life in Florida, trying to support myself and make ends meet. Let’s just say it did not take me long to realize why it wasn’t typical to sign a lease for your apartment at 19 years old. Life got overwhelming quickly, to say the least, and it felt like I was the 13-year-old sitting in a therapist’s chair again being told, “There is no cure for your anxiety.” I victimized myself and blamed others for the way my life was unfolding. I could not understand why anxiety or life was “happening to me.”
This experience made me realize I am here for a higher purpose. I am meant to help people who have been in my shoes. I became determined to make a better life for myself. I began working on my physical and mental health simultaneously and learning how to use the two together to strengthen myself as a WHOLE person.
I became the CEO of my life by taking control and responsibility for my actions and life.
My story has led me to be who I am today. I aim to help others confront the aspects of themselves that they wish to avoid, enhance their self-awareness by connecting their mind and body, and learn to work on the two together. Ultimately, I want to help people use their minds and bodies in coherence to step into their most powerful and authentic selves.
I stopped being the VICTIM of my life and became the CEO.

Jackie helped me when I was running my first half marathon. I was so nervous and didn’t believe I could do it when I first signed up. With Jackie’s support and guidance I grew to belive I could. Her approach is helpful because she is nurturing yet direct, and she helped push me to the finish line.
