Hi, I’m Shera.

Said with a long E.

The photo you see here? It’s an old one. When it was taken, I had just launched a skincare business and was about six weeks postpartum with my first (and only) little person. My hormones were doing the most, my world felt chaotic, and I barely recognized myself. Looking back at that woman now, I can’t help but smile because she was in the thick of it, figuring it out one messy day at a time.

And honestly? That’s kind of the story of my life.

I’m a wife, a work-from-home mama, and a health coach who has come full circle. I started my coaching practice a decade ago, gave it a real shot for about three years, and then burned out. I spent money I didn’t have, chased shiny things, and walked away feeling like a failure.

Fast forward ten years, and I didn’t come back to this work by accident - I was called back. The message came loud and clear when I started coaching my mom through some health challenges she was facing. Watching her transform before my eyes cracked me wide open. She started sleeping better, her energy came back, and her confidence radiated in a way I hadn’t seen in years. It was like witnessing her become a new version of herself. And in that moment, I knew: I was supposed to return to this practice.

I’m also stepping into my perimenopause journey right alongside you. That means some days are smooth, and some days…well, let’s just say there may be a eff bomb dropped here and there. I’m not here to package everything in a perfect little bow anymore. I’m here to show up - messy, honest, and committed to this work.

This space is about navigating midlife, hormones, food, sleep, rituals, and all the in-between that no one warns us about. It’s about laughing when we can, venting when we need to, and finding ways to feel more aligned physically, spiritually, and mentally, as we transition into this new version of ourselves.

So, this is me showing up. I’m excited to be here, to see what we build together, and - if I do my job right - to help you feel a little less alone on your own journey.

Thanks for being here. Truly.
