My Story

I was born and raised in the beautiful archipelago of the Azores, surrounded by the ocean and nature. From a young age, I followed the path expected of me — the responsible daughter with good grades, a degree in Nutrition, and a successful career as a Team Manager. On the outside, I had everything society called a “good life,” but inside I felt distant from myself and unfulfilled.

​

At 26, searching for something more, I tried surfing for the first time. That moment awakened something in me: a sense of freedom, joy, and resilience. It reminded me that life is not about ticking boxes but about truly living and connecting with what makes us happy.

​

And it was because of surfing that I started my path in yoga. It wasn’t love at first class, but over time, it became the practice that gave me clarity about who I truly am and what I really want for my life. Through yoga, I found the courage to take bold steps: leaving a long-term relationship, stepping away from a 10-year career in Nutrition, and choosing a path aligned with my truth, becoming a full-time Yoga Teacher & Surf Instructor.

In 2020, I completed my first 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training, and since then, I’ve continued my studies, now with over 600 hours of training. Along the way, I also became a certified Life Coach, which allowed me to combine my love of listening, guiding, and activating others into their own breakthroughs.

​

But my biggest transformation has come in recent years. Through deep inner work and countless breakthroughs, I realized that my role is not just as a yoga teacher, but as a coach, a leader, and an activator. My misson is holding space for women to reconnect with themselves, trust their intuition, and take bold action toward the life they truly desire.

Today, I combine Yoga & Coaching to activate the leader within you — the leader who chooses what’s best for her, shows up authentically, and dares to create a life she’s excited to wake up to every day.​
