a journey.
Goodish + Growing was founded by Caitlin Collins in the midst of her “dreamed of life” unraveling right before her eyes. Over the course of two years, Caitlin experienced three pregnancies losses and then learned her marriage, as she knew it, was coming to a close. Her lifelong vision of becoming mother, growing a family and building all of this with her chosen life partner, dissipated before she had a chance to live it.
Throughout this unexpected & challenging season of life, Caitlin felt unfamiliar to herself, ridden with grief, and isolated. Through faith, family, friends, and therapy, she began to rebuild — one moment, one day, one week at a time. It has and continues to be a non-linear journey but one she’s proud to say she’s facing with courage and growing in consciousness.
Rebuilding her life consciously, has lead Caitlin to listen to her inner knowing — her purpose is to advocate for greater health outcomes for everyone. Caitlin aims to coach you in ending the cycle of mindlessly putting your health last, while you mindfully put everyone & everything else first.
She has learned the messiness of life may never end; she has also learned it is in how we respond, set intentions, and live with reclaimed commitments to our mind, body & spirit that make all the difference.
