Medical background as an EMT with education in pharmacy and years of childcare providing and homeschooling, volunteering for multiple organizations, founded and managed a Christmas charity, and 30+ years of singing/songwriting. I opened the doors to The Herb Doctor after learning about herbal medicine when I became ill. Learning how to heal myself without the use of harmful medicine, made me want to learn more. I also have always been fascinated with nutrition and fitness, so I took courses and learned more about those. After losing 90 pounds and feeling amazing, I wanted to help others feel exactly how I felt. So I decided to become a coach. Upon completing the CPT, CNC, and WLS certifications with the NASM, I will be completing my Women in Recovery Certification. My overall goal is to open a gym locally for women in recovery that will offer fitness, nutrition, parenting and family, and recovery coaching. Eventually, we may grow and open the doors to their families, as well. This will be Anchor Coaching and will provide coaching to Idaho locals in-person, as well as national virtually. I will provide local and remote job opportunities to coaches and other professionals as we grow. We will strive to be a community for women in addiction recovery, promoting a healthy lifestyle and habits to help maintain sobriety. During my free time, I enjoy singing and songwriting, designing websites, and spending time with my seven children. I also enjoy interior design, art, crafts, and learning.
