About Sharon
Howdy! I'm Sharon.
I help people learn the skills to choose joy.
After leaving a challenging, high-conflict relationship in 2018, I rebuilt my life from the ground up. I figured out who I was and what I wanted to be,
Over time, I improved the poor relationship I had with myself and my body, rewrote my negative stories, improved my communication skills, and gained a healthier perspective about my place in the world.
Through my personal experiences and professional training, I learned how to help myself and others deal with anxiety, fear, and self-doubt.
I went from being stuck to Unstoppable!
I founded The Joy Hippo in order to help others find their joy and develop a better relationship with themselves through self-compassion and practical techniques.
My approach blends science with a playful, holistic take on personal growth.
