It starts with you

I’m not someone who has life perfectly figured out. I’m a woman, a mom, a partner, a runner, a dog owner, and someone who has had to learn how to carry a lot. Honestly, probably too much. Like most women, I somehow became the manager of schedules, emotions, logistics, snacks, dogs, and everyone’s invisible life admin.

 

I’ve run a marathon, raised two girls, built a career in IT as a project manager, gone through divorce, found a partner I love, and stepped into the wild adventure of blending families. And by “adventure,” I mean the kind that does not come with a map, a manual, or enough wine.

 

I also lost my dad a few years ago, and that kind of loss has a way of shaking your life and making you question what really matters.

 

For a long time, I thought I just had to keep going, keep managing, and keep holding everything together. But eventually, I started to understand that peace doesn’t come from carrying more. It comes from learning what is actually yours to carry, and what was never meant to be yours in the first place.

 

That’s a big part of why I created Carry Less, a simple reflection tool to help you notice what you’re holding inside, what is weighing you down, and where you may be over-functioning in your life and relationships.

Because I’m normal, just like you. I don’t coach from a perfect life. I coach from lived experience, honest reflection, and the belief that real change starts when you stop carrying what was never yours to hold.
