Welcome to the Leveled Up Living Blog!

Hi, I'm Julia. I'm a holistic Life Coach, Reiki Master, military fiancé, dog mom, mindset mentor, proud sister, and inspired daughter.

For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted to be involved in a career that helps others heal. I started working as a CNA in high school, and began pursing my Masters in Occupational Therapy at the College of Saint Mary. However, a transformative trip to Hawaii with my family during my sophomore year of college changed the trajectory of my life.

In the middle of the night, around 3:00am I sat up and became aware of the deep yearning my heart had to become a life coach. I had just recently been introduced to Life Coaching and fell head over heels in love! Holistic wellness became my compass, guiding me through my own transformative journey. The insights and awareness that I gained were nothing short of life-changing.

I followed my heart's calling and transferred schools to embark on the path of becoming a life coach once I completed my fourth and final semester at the College of Saint Mary. Serendipitously, that same summer, I met the love of my life, and now fiancé. I quickly realized the universal law of Divine Timing was working its magic right before my eyes. But, that's a story for another time.

Fast forward a few years, many trips back and forth from Nebraska to California, hours of study, lots of cold-brew coffee, and I proudly graduated from the University of Nebraska at Omaha with my Bachelors in Psychology, Sociology, and Human Health and Behavior.

My commitment to mastering the art of coaching led me to the Goal Imagery Institute, an accredited school for the International Coaching Federation. The entirety of what I learned throughout my journey, not only shaped my professional life, but has also been an anchor during the challenging times that life presents.

For over two and a half years, my fiancé and I have called San Diego home, navigating the ebb and flow of military life. As we finish out the last few months of his most recent deployment, I find comfort in the practices and techniques that have supported me through the transitions and time spent apart from my fiancé, family, and friends while living in a new location with unfamiliar surroundings.
