About

Hello, I’m Allison. 

Welcome! I am a certified health & wellness coach,  dancer, Broadway performer, wife, and dog mom. So glad you’re here and happy to meet you!

I know what it’s like to feel like you don’t recognize yourself or your body, wonder what’s happened to your mind, and feel generally super stressed, overwhelmed, and anxious in day-to-day life.

The demands of modern life are head-spinning. Added to the shifts that come hand-in-hand with mid-life…it’s a recipe for a whole lot of shutdown, confusion, and wanting to pull the covers over the head with the lights off.  I know what it’s like to feel like an alien in a life that’s spinning out of control and you can’t seem to locate the skills and tools you once had that kept it all together. You know something has to change and you have no idea where to start. 

I get what it feels like to just be going through the motions while feeling totally disconnected.  I’ve been as burned out as you are.  I’ve failed big time at showing up for family, friends, and colleagues because of burnout, depression, and anxiety, and I’ve put on a happy face in public more times than I can count.

After many years as a professional dancer and Pilates teacher, I found myself exhausted, out of shape, and depressed  from shifts that come with mid-life health & hormones, career, family, ever increasing responsibilities, and a culture as we age.  Life coaching saved me.  I know that sounds like a big, bold statement, but it’s true. I believe in the value of therapy to cultivate a deep understanding of our past and how it shapes us and our patterns. Coaching was the next step – the “HOW” to change the future now that we have that awareness.  I connected with a program that aligned with my educational and professional experience in studying human behavior and development. I learned positive psychology, behavioral change, and neuroscience strategies and frameworks that connected the relationship between our physical, nutritional, mental, emotional, and relational health and everything began to change.  I honestly fell in love with rediscovering myself and creating a Me 2.0 with this new understanding.   I rooted myself at the center of my life and experienced the change that happens when you put yourself first which is how we shine the brightest and serve with greater capacity. When you change your part of the equation, the outcome changes.

Let’s talk about how I can help you get into your main character energy.
