Hi! I’m Jamie. I am a double certified life coach, a seasoned yoga educator and soulful creative on a mission to inspire purpose, cultivate connection, and empower you on your journey back to wholeness.

I am a virgo ♍️, mama and senior dog lover. I am an empath, recovering perfectionist, and philosophy geek. My core value is integrity.  I love making the “woo-woo” REAL, unpacking spiritual platitudes and changing peoples minds about “personal growth”.

Born and raised in Northern California, I leapt at the chance to experience Southern California's vibrant life as an undergraduate at the University of California, Irvine. After graduating in 2006 with a focus on dance and psychology, I moved to NYC to chase my dream of becoming a professional dancer. However, after pushing my body to its limits, I pivoted to deepen my yoga practice. I completed my first teachemmr training at Pure Yoga in 2009 and began teaching right away. By 2012, I was studying with renowned teachers Rodney Yee and Colleen Saidman Yee, and today, I’m proud to be a Senior Faculty member at Yoga Shanti in Sag Harbor, NY.

In 2017, while on sabbatical, I signed up for my first coaching certification from the tiki hut wi-fi on a beach in Phuket. A yoga student of mine told me I would, “be a great life coach” and I took the bait. I became a certified Life Coach (CPCC, ACC) in 2018 through the Co-Active Training Institute. My journey has led me to train with experts like Shirzad Chamine, Sarah Baldwin, Christine Hassler and Richard Schwartz. In 2024, I earned my second coaching certification through Elementum Coaching Institute, under the instruction of Master coaches Christina Hassler, Stephanos Sifandos, Alexi Panos and Preston Smiles focusing on trauma and somatic practices.

Through both coaching and teaching, I’m dedicated to equipping my clients and students with tools to live consciously and authentically. My goal is to empower you to make aligned choices, break free from stagnation, help you alchemize your pain into purpose, and embody a life of that feels authentic and true.
