Owner & founder of Honeydew U.
I didn’t discover my true purpose until my late 30s, after a 15-year career in marketing and development, a divorce after 13 years, and a complete re-evaluation of who I was and what I truly wanted. I had to unlearn the false identities I’d built around others’ expectations and start the journey of honoring, loving, and valuing myself. It wasn’t easy, but through this process, I found balance—mentally, emotionally, physically, socially, and spiritually—and, most importantly, I found me.
That discovery became the foundation for everything I do now. My catalyst for change came during a transformative chapter living in Oahu, Hawaii. There, I started a fitness group called Team Mudda’s. What began as a small idea to get out of the house quickly blossomed into a vibrant community centered on fitness, self-care, friendship, connection, nutrition, and wellness. Together with Mandy—my first Hawaii friend who quickly became my soul sister—we created a space where women could show up unapologetically, connect deeply, and grow boldly.
We hosted workouts, retreats, and social events, hiked every breathtaking corner of the island, and pushed ourselves to new limits. Along the way, we uncovered athletes, adventurers, radiance, and joy within ourselves and each other. It wasn’t just about fitness; it was about building a community where women could discover their strength and shine unapologetically.
Now, through Honeydew U., I dedicate my energy to mentoring women, creating meaningful content, and sharing my journey through my podcast, blog, and community programs. My mission is to gently guide women toward letting go of false identities, discovering their authentic selves, and building lives full of purpose, peace, and love—on their own terms.
That fire ignited something bigger in me. After moving to Northern Virginia, I made the bold decision to pivot careers from marketing to teaching middle school math. Alongside that shift, I became even more passionate about empowering women to reclaim their lives and step into their purpose.
