About

Hey there! I’m Darlene! 

Many would describe me as a mother, friend, and small business owner. But in reality, I am so much more than that. And so are you.

Society may put us in boxes, but that doesn't mean we have to stay there. So let's break free from who we think we should be and start living the fulfilling life we deserve.

Join me on a journey of self-love, self-discovery, and unapologetic confidence.

My Story

I’m a mom of 2 amazing daughters, a multiple business owner, and a life adventurer. Who I have become is a resilient woman, who survived and thrived from multiple traumas, now finding myself in this new space. This is exactly where I was meant to be.

I once was the wife who had a vision for my life and a future with my husband. We were together for 27 years when he tragically passed away. The day he died the wife died, I died. Suffering from trauma, ptsd, a year of dissociative amnesia, and trying to hold on for my daughters as my life collapsed, living as a struggling solo mom, I found myself in the darkest abyss imaginable. Emotionally, mentally, spiritually, and physically unraveling. I found myself at a precipice. I could lose my life through all of this, or find a new me. My reslient self chose the latter.

 I found myself anchored in nature as I navigated through anger, pain, and grief. Each step in a hike, every minute I spent sitting with the trees, the earth, the animals and the stars I became grounded. I allowed God through the universe to heal my heart, mind, and body through nature while practicing the art of resiliency and forgiveness. As a result, I began finding a new me. A version of me who saw life through a new lens, a new appreciation for life, a longer laugh, and a love for life, a new appreciation of what I wanted as a legacy. 

I can say I spent the following years finding out who the new me was looking back in the mirror. My future was a black hole I couldn't stop staring at. I used the distraction of spending with girlfriends as a vacation to escape my problems. What I realized through our conversations was so many women are having to rebuild for themselves, for their children when life changes through death of a spouse or a divorce. We are all very different and yet so very much the same. Women deserve women who empower them to rise up out of the ashes of once was. I chose to become one of those women who began supporting other women. Once I realized I could only help empower women on a small level I began my journey of becoming a full time coach to help women just like you.
