Julie has partnered with her clients to re-claim their power, creativity and brilliance for over five years. She knows first-hand how… easily one loses her sense of self as she attempts to do and be it all. Julie found the courage to let go of her unhealthy and emotional abusive relationship and her inner critic that even more abusive. Despite losing her home, support system, and business, she re-built her life on her terms. She is dedicated to helping others heal their broken hearts. Julie knows firsthand the shame of not being able to provide. She knows the isolation of being far away from family. She knows the pain of a broken heart and defeated dreams. And most importantly, she knows the depth of her inner strength which enabled her to transform all the chaos, pain and struggle into an amazing new life filled with supportive friends, family and new opportunities. Self-compassion and inner wisdom are the tools she teaches so you can create healthy boundaries, lasting relationships and fearless freedom for yourself.
