My journey to becoming a health coach and founding Blue Zone 7 was born out of deep personal challenges. After losing my mom, grandmother, and brother within an 18-month period, I found myself struggling both emotionally and physically. It was during a routine visit to the dentist that I learned how serious my health had become—my blood pressure was so high that I faced an immediate choice: go to the emergency room or make an emergency appointment with my doctor the next day.

That day marked the beginning of a profound change in my life. When the bloodwork results came back, my doctor mentioned conditions like lupus or MS. That news shook me to the core. It became clear that if I wanted to live, and live well, I needed to change everything—how I ate, how I rested, how I managed my stress, and even how I mended relationships. With the support of my own health coach, I navigated this difficult path. There were bumps along the way, but through learning to live differently, I lost 60 pounds, healed my body, and found a way to sleep soundly without waking up in pain.

I know firsthand how challenging such a journey can be, and that’s why I created Blue Zone 7—to be the coach, the cheerleader, and the guide for others who want to live healthier, happier, and more aligned with nature. With the right support, encouragement, and tools, these changes are achievable for anyone.
