Dana is all too familiar with how breath corresponds with quality of life. Diagnosed asthmatic at the age of two, she was hospitalized many times as a child and young adult. Her journey has introduced her to a lifetime's worth of beneficial tools and techniques that have allowed her to understand, manage and push beyond physical and mental limitations.

In addition, she knows firsthand how exercise, diet, mindset, stress, patience, connection, letting go and even honest communication are directly linked to breath.

Dana uses her passion and studies to guide people in making major life decisions; to cope with the inevitable twists and turns of life; to explore deeper connections; and to create personalized pathways to manifesting desires.

In addition to being a certified LOB breath worker, she has a 30 year career in the communications field. She is a 20+ year student and teacher of A Course in Miracles, a certified enneagram coach, and a Zen Buddhism student & practitioner. Other modalities of her studies and teaching include Transcendental Meditation, Emotional Freedom Technique, fitness instruction and training, and nutritional guidance.

A forever fitness enthusiast, Dana spent many years as an endurance athlete, including marathons, triathlons, ultra-marathons, biking, kayaking, adventure racing and body transformation competitions.

Her most recent ""finish line"" crossed was in 2023, when she was diagnosed with and freed from breast cancer.

As a Midwesterner, Dana has an appreciation for the full range of seasons, both in nature and in life. Her mission is to assist others in navigating and developing their individualized path to optimal health, well-being, and quality of life.
