Hello, I'm Sally
My mission is to help you create meaningful, sustainable ripples of change in your life, one mindful wave at a time.
Through both my personal experience and training through the Institute of Integrated Nutrition, I've learned that lasting change doesn't come from quick fixes or one-size-fits-all solutions. It comes from tuning into what truly matters: your needs, your purpose, and the small shifts that can make a big difference.
Through my own journey balancing life's unpredictability, and a deep desire to live more fully, I discovered the power of intentional habits, emotional resilience, and self-compassion. That's what Wave Maker Wellness is all about.
A Journey of Transformation
My wellness journey didn't begin in a yoga studio or a perfectly curated kitchen. It began in burnout — and deepened with two under two. I remember sitting in the dim light during a middle-of-the-night feeding, exhausted but wired. My body felt unfamiliar. My energy was unpredictable. I felt depleted in a way I didn't know how to name. After more than a decade climbing the corporate ladder, I knew pushing through wasn't enough. Postpartum doesn't respond to hustle. I needed a reset — a new structure, a new rhythm, a way to feel like myself again.
That's when I discovered a powerful shift: Food isn't just calories or control — it's information. I started using it to show my body love, rebuild, and restore energy. To support my hormones, calm my nervous system, and strengthen my ability to show up fully — as a mom, a wife, and a woman. The first workout back — not to shrink, but to rebuild. The first farmers market trip with my baby strapped to my chest. The first time I felt strong instead of just surviving.
Other moms began asking what I was doing differently. That's when I knew this wasn't just personal growth — it was purpose. After graduating from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, I decided to move forward with my certification to help women build strength, restore energy, and feel fueled — not depleted. Because I've lived it. And I know what works.
“Small shifts create big waves.”

What Guides My Work
Primary Foods First
Our work together goes far beyond food. We begin with Primary Foods—the non-food sources of nourishment like relationships, joy, movement, purpose, stress, and daily rituals that shape your energy and well-being.
Secondary Foods
Next, we explore Secondary Foods—what's on your plate and how it fuels your unique body. We cover nutrient-dense foods, functional nutrition basics, mindful and intuitive eating, and practical tools to help you feel your best.
Small, Meaningful Ripples
Every session is designed to help you create small, meaningful ripples that eventually build into waves of lasting change. My goal is to make you feel supported, seen, and guided as you learn how to nourish yourself.
Your Rhythm, Your Flow
My role isn't to hand you a rigid plan, but to help you find a rhythm that feels grounded, sustainable, and aligned. Together, we create a flow that helps you feel energized, confident, and connected to the version of yourself you've been missing.
