Ally left her career in technology last fall. Ally shared, "It was time for a change that I wasn't quite ready to do on my own. Thankfully God had other plans to get me into my purpose." Since then, Ally dove into her business ventures, a vacation rental business called Discover Kenai on her home property in Kenai, Alaska and an apothecary-style wellness company called Wildcraft Wellness Co.
She will also be starting a masters program in Mind-Body Medicine with Saybrook University in Fall 2025. Ally's specializations will be contemplative end-of-life (palliative care) and functional nutrition. She'll also be establishing herself in birth work through midwifery apprenticeship. Ally excitedly shared, "A long-term dream of mine is to embed a wellness clinic and midwifery with our apothecary-style wellness business. All of this is a far cry from my career in tech and I'm so excited. My soul is on fire for the first time since I joined the Army."
