As the founder of Live Your Truth Yoga, I guide seekers on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and empowerment—from the serene landscapes of Stillwater, Minnesota, to the lush Caribbean shores of Costa Rica and beyond.

My teachings blend ancient wisdom, yogic philosophy, energetic healing, and modern neuroscience, offering a grounded yet mystical approach to personal transformation. I believe yoga is more than a practice—it’s a homecoming to your truest, most powerful self.

At the core of my work is sacred space-holding, where you feel safe, seen, and celebrated just as you are. Through authenticity, vulnerability, and deep reverence for the ancient traditions, I help you shed the masks, cut the cords of outdated beliefs, and reclaim your inner healer, guide, and guru.

No one outside of you holds your power—I simply help you remember.

  • Understand your dosha and its influence on your energy and emotions

  • Balance mind and body with simple daily rituals (dinacharya)

  • Nourish digestion and release stress with Ayurvedic nutrition and herbs

  • Cultivate inner stillness through breathwork, meditation, and movement
