My Story
“I’m enjoying my journey so far — figuring out life, one day at a time.”
The last few years of my life have been pivotal in discovering who I am. Getting to know my core being has kept me excited and curious about life. I’m unlearning and learning, uncovering layers within. Flowing and growing every step of the way. I’m enjoying my journey so far — figuring out life, one day at a time.



Been doing life since ‘85 like...
-
Went to San Bernardino Valley Junior College for a couple of years, then transferred to California State University San Bernardino for my junior and senior years. While finishing school, I landed a college internship with a utility company. Upon graduating with my B.A. in Marketing, the utility company converted me to a full time employee.
I worked for the utility company for almost 10 years doing internal and external digital communications, finding love for one of my many passions.
-
Purchased a couple of homes, got married, then brought my daughter – Siena Rose – into the world. I also landed my first senior leadership role as Director of Communications for a fashion apparel company. In less than two years, I was promoted to Vice President of Communications at the same fashion apparel company.
While my career skyrocketed, my toxic home life caused me to separate and file for divorce from my daughter’s father. As I purchased my third home to start a fresh, new chapter of my life, and went through two years of a painful, energetically draining divorce, I was finally free in 2020.
I also created and launched the Kegels & Coffee Podcast in 2021 — a space I host to openly share and outwardly process my life shit, as well as connect with others on similar paths and growth journeys.
Needless to say…on top of COVID-19, a lot of life shit has happened! lol

After launching my lifestyle blog earlier this year, shortly after, I was laid off from the fashion apparel company, along with others on my team. This was the hardest, scariest, most uplifting blessing I prayed for. Leaving the toxic work environment I was in laid the best foundation for where I am now.
I’m currently a senior Strategic Communications consultant for the top consulting firm in the world. I couldn’t be any more grateful. To be continued, with more life shit to come… =)
