Founder of

business strategy that doesn’t feel gross.

I believe in fostering safe spaces to cultivate business strategies that don’t feel gross! We do this by focusing on authenticity, alignment, and value-driven growth. It empowers you to connect genuinely with your audience, build trust, and achieve success without compromising your integrity or values.

Few business mentors support their clients with authenticity, adaptability, resiliency, inner work, the relationship to self, and the business and brand logistics that come with sales and marketing.

But I do.

my story.

I started my own coaching company and inspiration studio in 2015 and was feeling every emotion possible about the risks I was taking… I mean, who leaves their job? (Me, I did. Well before working online was as mainstream as it is today.) I was stepping away from a thriving, demanding wholesale home decor and gift industry career. I was choosing to bet on myself.

No one told me what to do, which path to choose, and how to know if my direction was right, but I trusted my instincts, skills, and dreams.

I can confidently say I wouldn’t change a thing.

Today, I work from my home in the quiet country air. I spend most of my time with my family, writing, going for nature walks, and leading my creative living brand forward in ways that inspire me.
