Founder/Creator of Swan in the Lotus Yoga and Wellness, LLC 

Women's Embodiment Coach and Bhakti-Infused Yoga Teacher

​
I am a Wisconsin native and I came to the practice of yoga and wellness over 20 years ago. I use my experience to guide stressed out women to explore their lower body and pelvic floor to find balance and courage so they can transition to live a sacred and healthy life. After years of career burnout, digestive issues (IBS), emotional and physical pain from a pelvic floor condition, and an unhealthy mindset from stress and anxiety, I have learned that I hold the power to heal myself and I strive to live a holistic lifestyle. I engage this knowledge and experience to support other women who are finally ready to put themselves first.

I have traveled around the country to learn Bhakti (Devotion) Yoga + Mantra with key teachers including Girish, Brenda McMorrow, Krishna Das, Sean Johnson and the Wild Lotus Band and more. I use lessons in mantra, yoga, wellness and my holistic health practitioner background to guide people to healing, transformation, and peace. I have helped over 150 people learn how to take charge of their health. Clients have said about me, "She truly cares about her clients and it showed with every check-in we had. I would definitely recommend Molly to anyone!"

After my journey through healing my pelvic floor condition, I learned ways to support women to understand their pelvic floor, hormonal imbalances, and learn to find solutions for a healthy life through yoga/wellness. I also have experience in helping with menopausal issues and post-birth conditions. I have worked with over 100 women and they have said “Thank you, Molly, for opening the door to something that shouldn't be kept behind closed doors. You are a champion for all women!"

​
My wellness approach is unique and explores a new way of looking at the lower body to help engage the body, mind, and spirit.

I identify as a cisgender woman and my programs for women's health come from my identity and knowledge. My pronouns are she/her/hers.
