Who Am I?

I’m not only a coach.
I’m someone who has walked this path.

With two decades in corporate leadership—spanning finance, strategy, marketing, and operations—I’ve lived the high-achieving, fast-paced life. I know what it’s like to drive results, lead teams, and chase success… only to find yourself questioning, “Is this really it?”

That question led me on a journey from burnout to breakthrough. A journey that helped me rediscover my spark—and taught me that success means nothing without alignment, authenticity, and aliveness.

You can read about my journey of Burnout to Re-igniting the flame here.

Now, I blend my strategic business mind with a deeply reflective and holistic coaching approach to support other high-achievers, professionals, and leaders like you. I guide you to reconnect with your truth, lead from within, and design a life and career that feels as good as it looks.

As a coach, I bring a unique mix of practical insight, intuitive questioning, and mindset tools that empower you to:

  • Shift from burnout to breakthrough

  • Navigate crossroads with clarity and courage

  • Lead with authenticity, yourself and your teams

  • Recreate success on your own terms

I believe that authentic leadership breeds real influence, self-leadership drives sustainable success, and aligned leaders build empowered cultures and teams. Because when you lead from who you truly are, you don’t just succeed—you elevate everyone around you.

So whether you’re navigating a career pivot, evolving as a leader, or reimagining your life and business from the inside out—I’m here to walk beside you. With strategy, heart, and a healthy dose of adventure.

Let’s reignite your spark and lead in a way that feels wholly, powerfully you.

When I’m not coaching, you’ll find me exploring on new adventures, reflecting over an almond cappuccino, or discovering new concepts in a thought-provoking book.

I believe in living this one beautiful life with curiosity, courage, and adventure. Your journey to becoming a liberated leader starts here.

My Philosophy

I help high-achieving professionals and business leaders reclaim their power to lead in both life and work.

While we may not always be able to control those around us, we can influence through our own actions. This is the core of self-leadership and mindset—creating the change we want to see. Through my own journey of growth and transformation, I’ve personally experienced the profound impact of leading from within to live a truly authentic and liberated life.

By leading ourselves with intention and authenticity, we inspire others to do the same.
This is the ripple effect I’m passionate about creating—one where we make positive waves, not just in our own lives, but in the lives of those we lead.

By leading ourselves,
we inspire others to do the same.

A ripple effect.
One where I prefer to make positive waves.

Self-Leadership

Leadership begins with leading ourselves. When we get clear on our truth, we can show up authentically, embracing our unique strengths and story with courage and acceptance. It’s through this self-awareness that we not only empower ourselves but inspire others to do the same.

Mindset

Our minds are more powerful than we think. Through awareness and mindful practices, we can regain control over what’s no longer serving us. From my own experience with burnout, I’ve learned the incredible power of the mind-body connection, using it to create greater alignment in my life and work.

With these tools and systems, I guide my clients through powerful transformations—moving from fear to confidence, chaos to clarity, and burnout to a life that feels truly aligned, where they are empowered to lead with purpose, joy, and impact.
