About Savannah

I have always had an innate drive for learning and personal growth. I was the kid hiding under her blanket with a flashlight reading late into the night and the friend others came to when they needed support. I was always a little “different”, asking the deeper questions, exploring spirituality and the meaning of it all.

While on a scholarship at the University of Texas at Austin, I surprised everyone (myself included) by getting pregnant and eventually becoming a single mama. While my son was a true gift, it was challenging and a test of my spirit and courage. 

It took me a couple of extra years, but I did graduate with honors with a degree in Creative Writing. In pursuing writing, despite realistic concerns about profitability, I followed my heart.

Because writing didn’t pay the bills and because I love to be with people, I pursued post-graduate education in healing and personal growth.

As a learning junkie, here are the programs I have graduated from: Santa Fe School of Massage, The Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching, and M.E.T.A., a mindfulness-based counseling program.

I really do understand what it feels like to lose your way. Because I have lived through the dark moments of self-doubt and hit the walls of real obstacles, I am even more passionate about seeing women thrive.

There is nothing more inspiring to me than a woman who knows herself and is deeply connected to her own meaningful purpose.

I also know that every woman has an inner wisdom that can guide her to be her best, most creative and fulfilled self. I know this is true because I have lived it.

 In the past 8 years, I feel like I won the lottery of life. I married an incredible man who is a writer/photographer/journalist (and edits all my work) and had a second son, now four years old. I have a close relationship with my grown son who lives in Austin, TX.

If you are looking for an ally who can understand your hardships and hold a vision with you of your possibilities, I would love to be your Life Coach!
