It was in May 2016, when I married the most amazing human being and was preparing myself for the exciting life and possibilities, that the future had in store for us. However, destiny had other plans, and I was diagnosed with endometrial cancer (womb cancer), six months later. In December 2017 that I underwent my first surgery in the form of a hysterectomy. At this time, I still wanted to hold onto the dream of having children of my own, and decided to not have my ovaries removed, in hopes of holding my own child in my arms someday.
Around this time in the month of January in 2018 that I was diagnosed with severe depression. I was slowly coming to terms with the fact that I would never be able to experience the gift of
motherhood and raise my own children. Finally, I decided to undergo my second surgery to remove my ovaries and in turn let go of a dream which I had held very close to my heart.
During the time of my diagnosis, I was blessed to have been in the UK. Living there allowed me to have access to valuable resources such as, cancer support groups, yoga sessions for patients, organic foods from farmer’s markets, and many more.

These led me to completely change the way I lived my life, and was instrumental in overcoming my battle with depression, all the while healing physically, mentally and emotionally.
Having gone through this traumatic experience, I am inspired to help others, who are perhaps going through a rough period in their lives, just as I was. I wanted to reach out and help others overcome their own personal struggles.
With this in mind, I decided to become a certified Health Coach, and in August 2019 enrolled myself in the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN)
