I’m a woman in construction with big goals and even bigger dreams. But like many people, I have faced my fair share of challenges in life – especially in my career. I followed all the “things” on the “millennial checklist” … go to school, get a degree, find a high paying job – but this led to burnout and self-doubt. I was unhappy in my job but I felt stuck and believed that I had no other career alternatives but to continue down the path of misery, which is why I’ve always had a side hustle to provide an escape. Over the past 10 years, I lost my sense of purpose and direction and became exhausted working solely for a paycheck.  

I've always been motivated by setting and achieving goals, but I've come to realize that life is about more the journey than the end goal. I used to put a lot of pressure on myself and set unrealistic timelines for achieving milestones, which again led to burn out. Pair that with constantly striving for perfection and not properly dealing with grief and trauma & you have the perfect storm - I ended up neglecting my physical health and was diagnosed with PCOS in 2019. It was a wake-up call for me to revaluate my priorities and learn the importance of taking care of my body and well-being.

Through my own journey these past 3 years, my turning point came in the shape of a shampoo bottle which sparked a transformation that completely changed everything for me.  I’ve come to realize that life isn’t simply about working to survive; rather, its how you live your life and the importance of focusing on self-care, valuing yourself and pursuing your dreams. I’m passionate about inspiring other to do the same and live their best lives.

So, if you’re someone who’s struggling with burnout, feeling like you’ve lost yourself or searching for a confidence boost - I’m here to remind that its never too late to make a change. Join me on this journey and let’s thrive together.
