About The Author

Toni is a wellness strategist and public health nurse who helps others design lives rooted in love, luxury, and longevity. With more than 25 years of experience across hospital, school, and community health settings, she brings clinical knowledge, presence, and lived experience to every space she enters.

She is also a yoga teacher and community wellness leader, known for her intentional, embodied presence and a voice that both calms and commands. Whether through her writing, retreats, or quiet daily rituals, Toni invites others to return to themselves—fully, freely, and without apology.

Her debut memoir, Grow Your Own Way, is a deeply personal offering—and a soft yet powerful invitation to grow something beautiful from your own truth.

About the Book

Grow Your Own Way

A memoir rooted in my life.
The story of how I created a wellness lifestyle that honors who I am—not who I was told to be.

Through honest reflections and personal stories, Grow Your Own Way explores what it looks like to live life on your own terms—with intention, curiosity, and care. It’s a quiet, meaningful read meant to be returned to again and again.

Why I Wrote This Book

I wrote this book for myself—because I needed a space to reflect, remember, and return to my own way of living. I also wrote it with the hope that it would inspire others to do the same in their own time, in their own way.

This book isn’t a guide or a formula. It’s a story. My story. About what it looks like to live gently, intentionally, and honestly—especially when the path forward doesn’t always follow a straight line.

If anything in these pages resonates with you, I’m honored it found you.
