With a background in social work and years of experience supporting aging adults and individuals with complex medical needs, I bring a compassionate, trauma-informed lens to movement and wellness. My p

ractice is rooted in understanding — not pushing. I specialize in working with:

đŸ’ȘOlder adults navigating strength, balance, and confidence

đŸ©șPeople living with hypermobility, POTS, and lipedema

đŸ’„Neurodivergent folks & those living with chronic stress or pain

đŸ§˜â€â™€ïžAnyone feeling disconnected from their body or burned out by traditional fitness

I believe your body doesn’t need fixing — it needs listening. Here, we move gently, rest often, and honor the whole human, not just the muscles. Let’s find what liberated movement looks like for you.

I was doing research on impacts of nutrition with connective tissue disorders (ie hypermobility). I was going to spew about how important nutrition can be for us fellow zebras, but I landed on that not being as exciting as this


I’m going to start sharing my journey as I limit/ eliminate gluten, and make some small and sustainable shifts to my dietary intake, but in my true fashion- I’m going to share the data I’m tracking along with it.

My diet has been lax ever since my daughter’s birthday. I know I felt better when I wasn’t eating gluten. I don’t have immediate pain when I eat gluten, and that’s why this is such a slippery slope.

Over time, my bucket has gotten too full, and my pain has been terrible. My dizziness and POTS symptoms have SPIRALED 🌀

I know what I need to do, but here I’m going to bring you along.

Elimination diets have been extra tricky for me as someone who has historically struggled with disordered eating habits since middle/high school.

I will be focusing on consistency, and an all or something approach. Focusing on limiting, and not beating myself up.

Let me know if you’re interested in any other trending information that I’m tracking.
Currently I’m using mostly a 0 (low)-10 (high)scale.

As of today my results are:
Chronic pain: 7
POTS: 7.5
Fatigue: 6.5
Depression: 5
Anxiety: 4.5
Focus: 3.5
Leg texture: lumpy, bumpy, 4-5 bruises

I was recently talking with a friend about disenfranchised grief, and it really hit home for me.
The process of learning to honor your ND self in a world that highly favors neurotypical brains is challenging.
Learning to hold space for yourself may be the hardest lesson of them all, it has been for me that’s for sure.

As a true neurodivergent, I can see so many connections in the world. Everything is really so interconnected.
I love exercise for many reasons, but one of the biggest ones is that it has helped me to move my energy within my body to process so many emotions. In addition to the movement and bilateral stimulation you receive when walking and exercising, it’s great for improving discomfort tolerance.

Hard truth here: No one starts a new habit WANTING to exercise every single morning. No one wakes up daily with that kind of motivation. The dopamine hit wears off and it gets TOUGH!!! That’s when most people quit and fall off the wagon. But when you continuously wake up each morning and choose to do the hard thing that you don’t want to
 That’s building that discomfort tolerance


And why is discomfort so important?
Because I don’t always get my way.
Because I feel so deeply and so hurt when others I love hurt.
Because I have two kids.
I feel so deeply when I lose someone I love.
And I am learning to sit in those hard spaces without running away. 💚


 It’s always deeper than ‘just exercise’
 It’s all connected 😉

And do all my other deeply feeling friends. I see you. I feel you. You’re so capable of the hard things.

Just a few of the many reasons people chose to start working with me as their personal trainer.

I’ve always believed that the best professions see someone in their profession to learn and grow from. And as someone who has been on both ends- our bodies are efficient! They compensate when we think we have proper form via the mirror. It can be so helpful to work with a trained movement professional who can help you to identify your movement patterns and give you targeted exercises that are personalized for you (and they make sure you’re doing it right, not just going through the motions!).

I love stability work, and balance becomes so important as we age. (And especially good for increasing proprioception in my hypermobile friends, iykyk!)

Please set yourself up in a safe spot to prevent any falls, and listen to your body before taking any suggestions.

🙏 Gratitude!!!

Something shifts in the heart when you start to focus on the good in your life. At times, it can be easy to fall into the trap of comparison (the thief of joy!), and all of the things that need to be done, changed, or adapted. When the to-do list of life gets too long and mundane, it can feel impossible to find the things in your life that are right on track.

We are all exactly where we need to be. Life is a journey, and it’s a lot more fun when you’re able to learn to ENJOY the journey!

Here are a few wins that I had this week, and I’d love to hear some of yours. Life is better when we celebrate each other and win together.

Life doesn’t always have to be a competition. There is enough space for all of us, and we can all win together when we stop living in our separate boxes.

💚

Hi Friends,

With summer around the corner, I’m looking to offer more virtual sessions so you can continue to reach your health and wellness goals wherever you may be.
In full transparency, this special rate is being offered to increase my experience and comfort in offering virtual sessions, and likely will not last long.

So far, I’ve had a few people take advantage of this opportunity, and it has been amazing!
I learned quickly to invest in a microphone 😅, and now we have been having some amazing audio in our sessions! (I’ve been told you can’t even hear my kids when they’re playing next to me!)
This has also been a great option for a client with a busy schedule — allowing her to plug into sessions with me on her lunch break at the office. 👏
Being able to provide the flexibility and consistency to individuals without them having to sacrifice their lifestyles while working on their health and wellness has been the mission behind the birth of Beyond the Body, LLC. 💕

If you’re looking for an affordable way to get started with sessions from the comfort of your home or office, schedule your free consultation with me via my link in bio or visit my website at www.beyondthebodyllc.com

Life is so messy.
And the truth is, we only get one life to live. One life to take chances, one life to have relationships with those we care about. At the end of life, rarely are people worried about the monetary or mundane stuff. The stuff we allow to hold SO much space and energy in our brains and bodies.
In my work with aging individuals and those in hospice, the relationships with those around us are what truly matter. No one is talking about that silly conflict you’re currently replaying in your head.

Gratitude gives us space to recognize how full our lives are in the moment. A life with more gratitude is a life more present. More time spent with those that we love, building, creating, and loving.

We are creatures of habit (good or bad), and I want to encourage you to start a habit of gratitude because when you’re dwelling you’re not able to move forward. As Tony Robbin’s says, “When you’re in your head, you’re dead.” And it’s so true!

Take a moment and reflect on what is going on in your life right now. What are you worried about? How does that take up space for you in your daily life? Your to-do list? Often these feelings do come from a sense of ‘lack’.

Now think about what life will be like when you’re in your 80’s.
What do you think truly matters for this season of life that you’re in?
What would your 80 year old self say to the current you? Is there something that your 80 year old self would advise you to let go of or change to improve your quality of life today?

For me, I’ve been stressing far too much about things that, in hindsight, are not what matters. Stressors will always be there no matter our age. But who you surround yourself with in these seasons and the memories you make along the way, are what will carry you through.

So, take a moment. Take a deep breath, and reflect on what you’re grateful for right now in this season? How can you find more space to appreciate and love that part? And what’s one thing you can do to make 80 year-old you proud?
