Hi, I’m Ilea — the creator of Life Simply.

Certified Life Coach • Behavioral Health Professional • Slow Living Guide

I help women slow down, reconnect with themselves, and build healthier habits that support a calmer, more intentional life.

For over 10 years, I’ve worked in Behavioral Health, supporting clients through crisis, change, and habit transformation. What I’ve learned is this: peace doesn’t come from doing more — it comes from living with intention. And that truth is at the heart of Life Simply.

The Story Behind Life Simply

Life Simply was born in Takoma Park, Maryland — during a season of peace, discovery, and deep intentional living. Surrounded by nature, community, and a slower pace, I began to understand the beauty of simplicity: the quiet mornings, the intentional choices, the space to breathe and reconnect with myself. It was a time that reminded me to live by my values, not by the pressures or pace of the world around me.

As life changed — marriage, motherhood, career — I found myself returning again and again to the practices that brought me back to center. And I began noticing something: Modern life is loud. It’s fast, overstimulating, and full of comparison. And in all that noise, so many women feel disconnected from themselves.

Life Simply was created as an antidote — a gentle space to cut through the noise, reclaim your time, and return to what truly matters.
