About Sophie

Originally from France, I’ve lived in Germany and now the United States—experiences that shaped a rich, multicultural perspective I bring into my work. My life philosophy is deeply influenced by the Vedic disciplines of Yoga and Ayurveda, which I first encountered in 1997 while living in Germany. Although I didn’t speak the language fluently, I felt an instant, intuitive connection to these ancient teachings. I learned through my heart. Yoga became a path of self-realization, and Ayurveda a guide for living in harmony with nature. Through them, I began to feel spiritually connected—not only to my deeper self, but also to the world and people around me.

In 2003, I moved to the U.S., continuing my studies while raising two young children. As we moved from place to place over the years, I leaned on the mindful principles I had embraced: staying present, practicing non-attachment, and engaging in self-inquiry. These values helped me navigate life’s constant changes with greater awareness and peace.

As my children grew into adulthood, I felt called to support others in reconnecting with themselves. I saw many moms, like myself, who had poured their energy into caring for others. Along the way, parts of ourselves can get tucked away. And then life shifts—through loss, an empty nest, a move, a new job, or a change in a relationship—and uncertainty emerges. We begin to question who we are and what we want in life. I witnessed how self-inquiry, at the heart of coaching, wellness counseling, and yogic philosophy, offers a way forward. It allows us to pause, reflect, and make intentional choices aligned with who we’re becoming.

Today, I offer my services from a place grounded in lived experience and a diverse background that includes life coaching, yoga, Ayurveda, Reiki, nutrition, hormone balance, and mindfulness-based stress reduction. These tools continue to guide my own inner work and have taught me to approach others with openness and without judgment—qualities essential to the coaching process.

I meet you where you are, holding space for your unique journey, and supporting you in reconnecting to your body, mind, and spirit so you can move toward your goals with clarity and grace.
