About Kylie

I was born and raised in the small, Midwest town of Quincy, Illinois. I spent my childhood in dance, choir, soccer, and spending time at my family cabin in the woods. There are a few things on my journey I'd like to share to connect and create a clearer lens of what makes me, me. Beginning at age 3, I severed my pulse vein and broke my arm on family vacation. I was air evacuated and out of surgery by the time my family was able to get there. At such a young age, I was shown the power of my own self healing and care. At age 11, my cousin I grew up with was paralyzed from the waist down and that was when I say God really stepped me up to the plate. Assisting her while also going through my own growth, shifting the perception of my own body and it's capacity.

At age 20 I had my low back injury at work, went through a 7 year long workers compensation case and had to reframe all of the stories and beliefs people fed me about having to live in pain for the rest of my life.

In years following, I went to college twice. I went for nursing and switched to psychology with the desire to pursue physical rehabilitation counseling. However, I saw myself doing more than one thing, many things, and commiting to another 6 years in school was misaligned for my desire to EXPERIENCE LIFE. I worked in sales, bartended, and lived in Kentucky and Georgia (both for 18 months). When I moved back home at 26, my old dance coach referred me to a group fitness studio and that was where my life began again.

3 years later, I came out to Phoenix for a 4 day fitness event, and knew my opportunity to thrive and connect was HERE! 

Changing my environment has led me to discover my own beliefs, wants, and systems. It has led me to confidence, authentic expression, and the unfolding of my own wounds transformation from passion to purpose.
