Hi, I'm Maggie!
In my 5th century of life now… I have navigated many milestones, challenges and learnings. I married right out of college, gave birth to a beautiful daughter, later divorced, single-parented for 9 years, then married my life partner, hustled my way through corporate careers, left corporate to start my own businesses centered on helping others elevate their work, conquered breast cancer, and am working through my ongoing healing and the impacts on my body post treatments and being in menopause.Â
What defines me is my ongoing pursuit of all the things most meaningful to me; connection, growth, healing, and spirituality.Â
I was born and raised in Minnesota, grew up as a competitive swimmer, love the outdoors, movies, games, music, and time with family & friends. I love to travel when I can to warm places as I love to sit in the sun by, on or in any body of water.Â
I was diagnosed with breast cancer in November 2020. LoveME Healing was born out of my personal Breast Cancer journey, the tools I created to support myself and the revelation that my healing meant finding more ways to love and care for myself. My mission is to help others on this journey as well as build community around healing; mind, body and spirit.
My hope is to get the tools, resources and learnings I have created out into the hands of other women navigating Breast Cancer.
This is where the Diagnosis Detour began — not as a medical guide, but as a heartfelt companion for those navigating their own healing path.
A diagnosis brings so many scary unknowns. Processing what’s to come and preparing for change can feel overwhelming — which is exactly why I created the Diagnosis Detour. It’s here to help you slow down, make sense of what’s happening, and begin finding your way forward — one reflection, one question, one tool at a time.
The Diagnosis Detour is a Healing Companion to help those recently diagnosed with Breast Cancer to understand, process, and prepare to navigate the journey ahead. I also share some of my story and learnings along the way. Â
Your Healing Journey Starts Here...
Keep it simple, clarify medical jargon, ask your questions, and feel more empowered. Access tools to better understand, process, and prepare to navigate your journey ahead.
