Meta Street Cafe is a photozine of visuals made to create and inspire a life rich with culture, nature, connection and joy. As a health coach, my expertise is in cultivating one’s true and unique self, identifying distinctive paths to health optimization, and using the arts and writing to express and reflect. The health coach experience will encourage a return to a life where human connection to each other, to our food, our heritage, and to the natural world are prioritized and brought to the forefront of daily living.

Wellness, personal growth, community, and the outdoors have always been important to me. My husband and I are long-time owners of an outdoor store in Ventura, California where authenticity, resourcefulness, environmentalism and spending time in nature are strong values. Alongside outdoor education and field studies curriculum writing, a lifetime of photography, home cooking, and time outdoors, I have pursued Health Coach training at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition.

I deeply believe that every person has the capacity for wellness by cultivating their authentic self, making lifestyle choices with intention, and continually self-reflecting to remain aligned. I love helping others uncover what’s possible for them. I believe measurable progress is possible when insight is gained and support is in place. In addition to a traditional sit-down health coach session, I offer Health Coach hikes, or walks— integrating nature, journaling, and structured coaching in neighborhoods, or local hiking trails in Ventura, Calfornia.
