You keep taking trips hoping to feel restored — but come back just as exhausted.
Travel coaching that helps you stop using trips to escape — and start using them to actually heal.
I work with emotionally and mentally drained individuals — those dealing with burnout, grief, or major life transitions — to design nervous system-safe travel experiences that restore clarity, vitality, and joy.
Not just during the trip, but long after you return home.

Why most trips leave you more exhausted — and what to do instead
You plan the vacation. You take time off. You spend the money. And for a few days, maybe you feel lighter. But by the time you're on the return flight, that familiar weight is back — the anxiety, the exhaustion, the feeling that nothing really changed.
Here's why: escape isn't the same as healing. And without intention, even the most beautiful destinations can't fix what's waiting for you at home.
🧠 Rooted in
neuroscience
My approach is grounded in polyvagal theory and nervous system regulation — not just inspiration, but science-backed practices that create real, lasting change.
🌍 15+ years of travel expertise
From guiding groups across Ecuador to co-founding a family travel business, I know what makes travel truly restorative — and it's not the itinerary.
💫 Support that lasts beyond the trip
I work with you before, during, and after your journey, so the transformation doesn't evaporate when you land. The change follows you home.
I know what it's like — and how to break the cycle
I've been where you are — stuck in exhausting cycles, using travel to escape instead of heal, returning from trips with the same anxiety and disconnection waiting for me.
What changed everything was learning to ask one question:
"Why am I really going?"
That shift — from escaping to traveling with intention — transformed not just my trips, but my entire life.
Now I help you make that same shift.

But what if...
These are the real questions I hear from burned-out individuals, people processing grief, and anyone feeling stuck — the concerns that come up when you're ready for something deeper than just another vacation.
This isn't about forcing yourself to do more. It's about finally understanding why you're so drained in the first place — and learning practices that actually restore you, not deplete you further. My approach feels restorative, not exhausting.
Absolutely. Your past travels hold incredible wisdom. Using my Reflective Travel Coaching Program, we'll unlock insights from journeys you've already taken — turning memories into catalysts for the clarity and transformation you're seeking right now.
That's exactly why my approach is nervous system-safe. We work gently, at your pace, without forcing anything. Many clients tell me they finally felt relaxed for the first time in years—because they weren't running from themselves anymore.
Because travel creates a unique neurological state. Your brain is more open to change when you're in new environments. I combine this natural neuroplasticity with intentional emotional work and nervous system regulation — creating transformation that actually sticks.
If you're asking this question, you probably are. My free 30-minute Clarity Call helps you discover if travel coaching feels right — with no pressure, just honest conversation about where you are and what you need.
