"Be Where You Are; Otherwise You Will Miss Your Life" ~ Buddha
At The Mindfulness Life Company, LLC, I believe in the power of restorative mediation and mindfulness coaching to help individuals find their unique voice and self-advocacy. My approach to consulting is centered around helping individuals and families identify and address the root cause of issues they may be facing, rather than solely treating the symptoms.
I provide a safe space for individuals to explore and process their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, which leads to lasting change and growth.
