WHERE GRIEF TO GROWTH HAPPENS

 Hey there! I'm Crystal, The Grief Mindset Coach. 

You can watch a video that goes more in depth about my story and why I created The 2.YOU here!

Life has an incredible way of taking us down unexpected paths, and I am living proof that in the darkest moments, we can discover our true purpose and emerge as beacons of hope. 

In 2021, the unimaginable happened - my world was shattered when my beautiful daughter, Caia, passed away unexpectedly. It was a moment that changed my life forever, and the depths of grief I navigated were beyond comprehension. The pain was relentless, and in the midst of this anguish, I realized that there was a void in the world of grieving – a lack of support for those who lose not just their loved ones but also their own identities.

With an unbreakable spirit, I decided to embark on a journey to ensure that no one would ever feel alone in their grief. I became a Grief Mindset Coach, not just to help others heal, but to guide them in rediscovering who they are amidst the shadows of loss.

My passion for this work is a fire that burns brightly. It's a calling, rooted in the love I have for my daughter and my unwavering commitment to ensure that her memory lives on. With my radiant optimism, I bring light to even the darkest corners of grief-stricken hearts.

My passion is to always be a source of solace and strength. I envision a world where grief is not an isolating journey, but a path toward transformation. I believe that even in the midst of despair, there is still light in the world around us – it's just a matter of adjusting our mindset to perceive it. 

That is why I have created the 2.YOU. A place where we can come together as women and empower one another through our grief and growth in our unique journeys. 

Beyond my professional roles, I am a devoted wife and a mother of two wonderful ‘earthside’ children, all of whom share a bond through names that begin with the letter 'C'. Our furry and extremely crazy pup, Colt, adds an extra dose of joy to our lives.

In my spare moments, I am all about enjoying the outdoors, finding peace in nature, and spending quality time with my amazing family. The color pink is my signature hue and a perfect reflection of my spirit, My guilty pleasures include eating far too many delicious french fries (With fry sauce of course!) and sipping on an iced Diet Coke (only if I have a straw!).

Through my journey and my work, I hope to inspire others to find the strength to transform pain into purpose and to never underestimate the resilience of the human spirit. My goal is to guide everyone I cross paths with, that even in the most challenging times, there is always an opportunity to find the light within and share it with the world. 

Oh.. and I am kind of goofy too......and not a fan of photoshoots :)
