A Life-Changing Experience That Shaped My Perspective

On October 6, 2023 at the age of 43, I experienced a life-altering event—an artery dissection in the back of my neck that led to a severe brain stroke. At the time, I had no idea what was happening to me. It was the most terrifying moment of my life. Not recognizing the severity of my condition, I didn’t seek medical attention for three days while my brain was still deteriorating. Looking back, I don’t know how I survived. Read more>>

I have had the honor of holding space for many amazing people during my career as a coach.
People hire me for many reasons. To help them heal, to help them see and clear the patterns keeping them stuck, to end the wrong connection, or to align with and call in the one they’ve been looking for. Read more>>

One of the most heartwarming stories from my career involves a toddler who was struggling to eat solids. His parents were understandably concerned, but they were also open to exploring how chiropractic care could help.

One of the most personal inspirations behind AnMar Libretto began when I found out I was pregnant at 26. To be honest, it was scary. I wasn’t married at the time, and while I was excited, there was also a weight of uncertainty. Very early on, I knew one thing, I wanted the child growing inside of me to know they were deeply loved. Even before she could hear me or see me, I needed her to feel it. Read more>>

In the spring of 2024, one of our clients received news that shook her: she was prediabetic, and her liver enzymes were elevated. After further testing, she was diagnosed with fatty liver disease—a condition that can be reversed, but only through major lifestyle changes. Her doctor gave her a roadmap: change her eating habits, lose weight, and commit to a healthier lifestyle. At the time, she was nearly 50 pounds over her ideal weight. Read more>>

When I first began my career as a wellness educator I partnered with different social organizations and non profits to make wellness accessible and create unique experiences of healing for people in my community. I worked a 9-5 job to provide for myself and used every extra dollar and all of my time to put back into these projects. I started my business because I am deeply devoted to creating safe spaces for healing and learning so that we can all reach the highest version of ourselves. It has never been about money for me. But, I realized that my gifts and hard work deserved to be compensated and I did not need to deplete myself in order to have success. I worked hard to receive and create opportunities with my work and also did deeper work in myself. Entrepreneurship will bring you on an entirely different wellness journey on its own and to succeed you must surrender to it. Read more>>
