A New Coastline, A New Chapter
Re-introducing Myself
Hey...hello...Is this thing on? Testing...Testing...
It's been a while, hasn't it?!
Well, guess what, I am here again and would love to reconnect with you. If you're interested in staying in touch, keep going. But if you are like "Who is this woman emailing me?' and want off this boat, there is an unsubscribe button at the bottom. Totally get it.
If you've made it this far, hey friend and, thank you.
The fact that you've stuck with me all these years means more than you know. You've watched me build a business, teach every kind of yoga imaginable, travel the world, navigate life's highs and lows, and embrace more than a few unexpected plot twists.
Y'all you know me by now, I really love a good plot twist.
And if you're newer here...Welcome! I'm so glad our paths crossed.
During the pandemic (which I now affectionately call 'The before times,' preferably with dramatic flair), I sold Atma's Offerings, the online wellness business I ran for over a decade, which took me around the world adorning and serving clients, held an estate sale, packed what was left of my life into a few bins, and moved halfway around the world to Southeast Asia.
I figured if I was going to start a new chapter, I might as well make it an interesting one. As most of you know, that’s generally how it goes. I landed in Da Nang, Vietnam, 2.5 years ago and am really happy here.
Since then, I've had the absolute joy of helping luxury wellness resorts, retreat centers, and brands elevate their wellness programs, train hospitality teams, create unforgettable guest experiences, and bring innovative wellness practices to life. I've also coached individuals and business owners as they've gained clarity and built lives and businesses that feel more aligned with who they are.
These days, you'll also find me sharing stories about travel, wellness, reinvention, and what it's really like to start over in your 50s...with a healthy dose of curiosity, honesty, and the occasional (OK, often!) laugh at myself.
And...I'd love to take you along for this ride.
But first, I want to make sure I'm creating the things you're actually excited about.
Whether that's the raw reality of moving abroad, practical wellness tools, stories from life in Southeast Asia, or the lessons I'm learning, I'm here to share it all.
Below is a quick five-question survey that will help shape what I create next.
Thanks so much, and I can't wait to see where this next chapter goes.
