My Story

As a teen mom, that suffered from childhood trauma I assumed being overwhelmed was a way of life. I did any and everything I could to create the best life I could for me and my children. So I worked extremely hard, thinking it was the only way to succeed. Over working and over achieving came with great rewards. But at what price? As the evolution of the workplace takes unprecedented heights and people struggle to create a more flexible and balanced way of working, statistics have shown that stress and burnout are affecting more women than men en masse. The recovery process from chronic stress and burnout is a slow one and requires patience. The duration is different from person to person and depends on factors such as the causes and duration of the chronic stress or burnout; coping styles and sense of agency, and the person's support network. When I speak and coach  I draw from a lot of my professional background, personal experience and education to help individuals uncover limitations that might be impacting personal or professional life. I help confront your deepest fears and challenges head-on. I’ll teach you practical tips and tools for overcoming limiting beliefs and show you how to build confidence so you can unlock your true potential.

Hey There

LET'S DO THIS THING

It's time to take responsibility for loving and healing ourselves...

Motivated young women often feel like the world is their oyster and that opportunity is their’s for the taking, but when life, family, kids and career stressors all start to come to a head while they enter their 30’s, it can leave women feeling overwhelmed, and this only continues to build over time. Eventually, this leads to burnout in even the most motivated of women. My presentations help women in their 30’s up through their 60’s reinvigorate themselves by transforming their mindset, and teaching them how to balance work and life in real time. I am extremely passionate about changing the lives of women for the better, and I bring that energy, combined with actionable techniques and real advice, to my presentations. Women walk away from my presentations with practical tools and techniques for overcoming limiting beliefs that hold them back, and the confidence to unlock their full potential.
