And unreasonably excited about what's next for you.
Sixteen years.
Millions of downloads.
I've worked with thousands of clients—coaches, consultants, therapists, writers, artists, and multi-hyphenates—through new ideas, changing ambitions, shifting businesses, pivots, reinventions, and plenty of “okay, what the hell now?” moments.
Which means: I’ve seen some shit. And you get to use that to your advantage.
My superpowers: I spot patterns, connect seemingly unrelated dots, and see possibility where others see dead ends. I also know you don't need the whole plan before you get going.
You just need a place to start and enough courage to find out what happens next.
This ain't my first rodeo:
I started doing this work in 2011. Before the reels, the funnels, and the courses about courses.
I’m a strategic coach. Which means we can talk about your work, your business, your creativity, and your life...and all the messy ways they overlap.
In practice, this looks like:
How I work:
You bring me the Thing. The thoughts waking you up at 3am, the big questions, weird what-ifs, your yeah-buts, and seemingly unrelated ideas you can't stop thinking about but aren't quite sure what to do with.
We find your Starting Line. I dig in, sort the truth from the doubt, and help you find today's next right move. (Hint: it's probably not what your inner gifted kid thinks you're "supposed" to do.)
Action creates clarity... and your next steps. You figure things out as you go. Which is why we don't wait for clarity, we find it along the way.

Bottom line:
The version of your life where you're making those things happen? It's not a pipe dream, and it doesn't require you to blow everything up.
You just need to trust what you know, take the next step, and see what happens.
Again and again and again. This is the work.
Because having the life you want is an ongoing practice.
And please remember:
being who you are
ISN'T SOMETHING
YOU COMPROMISE
it's the whole fucking point
- YOU CAN BE GRATEFUL FOR THE LIFE YOU HAVE AND STILL WANT SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
- you might have gotten really good at PLAYING a game you AREN'T ACTUALLY INTERESTED IN WINNING. AND SOMETIMES THOSE ARE THE GAMES MOST RIGGED IN SOMEONE ELSE'S FAVOR.
- You're only living your values if you're honoring them for yourself first. Which means we're no longer available for setting ourselves on fire to keep everyone else warm.
- WHEN BRILLIANT WOMEN STOP SHAPESHIFTING INTO LIVES THAT NO LONGER FIT, IT'S NOT JUST GOOD FOR THEM. IT'S GOOD FOR everyone.
- YOUR LIFE, WORK, BUSINESS, CREATIVITY, AND AMBITION DON'T EXIST IN SEPARATE BOXES, AND YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PRETEND THEY DO.
- courage is a habit built one rep at a time, and action reveals more than thinking alone ever will.
- SELF-DOUBT ISN'T AN AUTOMATIC RED LIGHT. SOMETIMES IT MEANS YOU'RE ONTO YOUR NEXT BIG THING.
- THE big, crazy IDEAS THAT WON'T LEAVE YOU ALONE ARE THE ONES I WANT YOU to take MOST seriously.
- being who you are is an act of political power, and tHE WORLD NEEDS every single one of us AT FULL VOLUME.
- BLACK LIVES MATTER, TRANS PEOPLE ARE BEAUTIFUL, and everyBODY DESERVES THE FREEDOM TO BE FULLY and UNAPOLOGETICALLY WHO THEY ARE.
what I stand for:
I started coaching in 2011, with a degree in Psychology from UNC, a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach (CPCC) certification, and a decade of experience in hospitality, retail, fundraising, and marketing.
In 2014, I kicked off my first year-long coaching program (heyo 100 Rejection Letters), launched my Raise Your Hand Say Yes podcast, and had twins.
To say I keep myself busy is an understatement.
Since then, I've quit drinking (nearly 10 years sober!), moved to Colorado, baked an unreasonable amount of French pastry, gotten diagnosed with ADHD (shocker, right?! lol), and started taking dance again 34 years after Ms. Andrea told me I wasn't cut out for it.
Ms. Andrea was wrong.
I've also untangled myself from hustle culture, built things that worked beyond my wildest dreams, AND lived through the messy middles, “failed” launches, bad years, and chapters where the revenue didn't bounce back.
I know what it's like to have built something, changed inside it, and then have to figure out what comes next without knowing the answer first... and I can't wait to help you find your way forward too.
THE REST
of the STORY
AND HOW DID I GET HERE?
LONG STORY SHORT: I've been doing—and living—this work for a long time.
So, now you know the whole story.
Are you ready to make your move?
Here we go:
Essays + conversations about work, business, creativity, ambition, money, and what happens when the old answers stop working.
A room for creative women who are done figuring everything out alone. Bring the thing you're building, changing, questioning, or trying, and we'll practice from there.
Put my brain on the big questions, weird ideas, and whatever-the-hell-is-next of it all. We'll figure out what matters now and what you're going to do about it.
The Business of Being Yourself is where I talk about work, business, creativity, money, ambition, and what happens when the life you built stops fitting quite like it used to.
Expect real-time experiments, income reports, things I'm figuring out as I go, and zero pretending I've cracked the code on being a person.
"None of your business!?" HA. Not in this house!
