It's January 2019 and I'm living my dream. My beautiful new yoga studio on the North Shore of Maui had been open 6 months, and I'd just signed the lease on the space next door to build out a wellness center.
I was busy - maybe a bit too busy - but loving life. Opportunities abounded and I was so excited for what life was bringing.
Then one sunny Friday afternoon, I exited a blind corner and found a large school bus barreling headlong into my lane. In a split second, my life changed and my dream turned into, what felt like for many years, a nightmare.
The thing about curveballs is we just
don't see them coming......
FROM LEMONS TO LEMONADE - How the worst 3 years of my life set the stage for the best to follow....
After almost 2 years of struggle and with strong recommendations from my doctors, I made the heart breaking decision to close my businesses and focus on my health.
I chose to "lose" one battle in order to win the "war". I had the (life saving) surgery. I turned to my yoga practice, to Ayurvedic Principles and Practices, to deep rest, to self care and recovered well.
My journey had come with some hard lessons, deep insights and clarity about how I wanted to move forward. I used my recovery time to go back to school to study nutrition and health coaching, knowing they were the perfect fit to my years of experience in yoga and movement.
I firmly believe that being healthy and well is the best investment we can make in our business and our lives to navigate challenges and set ourselves up for success.
When we are healthy, strong, vibrant, energized and resilient, anything is possible.

A passionate entrepeneur since my early 20’S, I graduated, in my LBY (Life-Before-Yoga), with a degree in Marketing and Sales Management., successfully running my own Events Management company before eventually finding my way to my yoga mat in 2001. I knew my life was about to change.

But before arriving in the "Rainbow State" (Hawaii) I called the "Rainbow Nation" (South Africa) home.
