Small Changes. Big Impact.
A Healthier Life Awaits
Empowering individuals and organizations to create lasting wellness through simple, sustainable habits.
Life is full of roles to juggle—spouse, parent, professional, and everything in between. I know this firsthand because I’ve been there. Diagnosed with Crohn’s disease at 23, I was forced to rethink my life. How I ate, slept, and managed stress became critical to my well-being...
And I learned a powerful lesson that led me here...
It’s about creating habits that last, not chasing quick fixes. With time, these small choices become second nature, transforming your life without feeling like a burden.
It isn't about a total overhaul...
It’s about taking simple, manageable steps—like adding a quick stretch to your day or swapping one meal for a healthier option—that fit seamlessly into your routine.
It’s about prioritizing your well-being in ways that bring more energy, balance, and joy—not perfection. Real wellness is achievable, no matter how busy life gets.

Life is stressful. But managing it doesn’t have to be.
Let’s be honest—life is a lot. Between work, family, responsibilities, and that never-ending to-do list, it’s easy to feel like you’re drowning in stress. Been there. Done that. Bought the oversized coffee mug.
That’s why Take 5 isn’t your typical self-help book. It’s your daily 5-minute reset—a real-life, no-fluff, totally doable guide to managing stress without quitting your job, moving to a mountaintop, or becoming a monk.
Inside, you’ll find:
30 days of quick, powerful stress-busting tools (no yoga mat required)
Real talk about perfectionism, people-pleasing, and why “busy” isn’t a badge
Simple daily actions that help you breathe easier, laugh more, and maybe even enjoy the ride
Bonus chapters because sometimes we just need more
Who is this book for?
The overthinkers, over-doers, and over-schedulers
The perfectionists, people-pleasers, and recovering multitaskers
The moms, teachers, caregivers, leaders, and anyone who’s ever said “I’m fine” when they weren’t
Anyone who’s ready to stop surviving and start feeling better—without adding more to their plate
If you’ve ever thought, “I just need a minute,” this book is your minute. Actually, it’s your five.
So take a breath. Grab a cup of coffee. Take a moment. And let’s Take 5—together.
Simple, sustainable wellness solutions for individuals and workplaces.

Now, I’ve made it my mission to help others find that same balance.
““I sure enjoy these emails – I have adopted a lot of tips and they help me. Long time ago you promoted grilled veggies. I’d seen that before but it pushed me to finally try it out… now I’m addicted to grilled zucchini and yellow squash! Marinate in a little olive oil and salt, pepper, garlic… throw on the grill… EXCELLENT!! 😊 Thank you!””
