A New Beginning...

  • "Even the most jagged paths toward inner peace lead to wellness, healing, and finding a higher calling."
    Scarlett Shepard, Mindfulness Teacher
The Journey is not always Linear

In 2023, I became a mindfulness teacher, inspired to share my transformative journey toward inner peace. My path wasn’t always smooth, but through mindfulness, I learned how to navigate stress and find clarity. Now, I help people like you unburden your mind by incorporating mindfulness into even the busiest of schedules.

In 2021, I hit a breaking point. Burnout left me emotionally drained, physically exhausted, and mentally paralyzed. Stress consumed me, making even small tasks feel overwhelming. I knew something had to change. Committing to a daily mindfulness practice became my turning point. Slowly, my energy returned, and I felt my life realigning—personally, professionally, and spiritually.

As my creativity reignited, I began writing Unburden Your Mind and Chill with Mindfulness, sharing my personal stories of triumphs, epic fails, and the power of resilience. Now, I’m working on the second draft of my book, exploring personal storytelling and practical approaches for managing stress, breaking free from limiting beliefs, and staying grounded through life’s ups and downs.

In the meantime, I launched a podcast to share teachings and tools that help you connect with your inner wisdom and feel more centered in your daily life.


Reconnecting with Our Purpose is Key​

Writing has always been my way of articulating and transcribing my truth. As part of my recovery from burnout, I began exploring activities that brought me joy and nourished my soul; shortly after, I returned to writing as I did as a child—boundlessly, effortlessly, and courageously. While reflecting and journaling about my recovery journey, the word re-root came to mind one day. It has become a mantra for re-rooting myself with courage, compassionate wisdom, and flexibility in my daily practice. Later, I learned that trees develop tremendous power when they establish roots in the ground; the roots of every tree tap into collective energy to support themselves and other trees. Together, the roots connect and provide sustenance to other trees. I appreciate you checking out my website, and I applaud your quest for insight—because, let’s face it, finding clarity can be challenging when life is moving so fast.​​​

re-root with our passion and purpose

We all want to live meaningful lives, but sometimes we become so overburdened by life's hustle that we need to re-root and re-center ourselves in our everyday lives—and we can do so with mindfulness practice.
How to embrace and flow with your busy mind while meditating and honoring your emotional wisdom instead of struggling to hush or avoid it.
  • Re-root with intention and realign with our passion and purpose. (Let’s dream big. When we chill in mindfulness, setting intentions becomes the foundation for achieving them.)
  • Re-root in self-care to nurture and restore our body-mind connection. (Take a nap, savor something you enjoy—you deserve it!)
  • Re-root in self-compassion. (We can be our worst critics; let’s give ourselves a break and the space to learn, reflect, and evolve.)
  • Re-root to unburden your mind. (Let’s reduce stress and get more restful sleep. Take one soul-depleting activity off your schedule each day and make room for one soul-nurturing activity.)
  • Re-root in resilience. (As we practice, we become increasingly aware of how powerful we truly are.)
