I was a quintessential high achiever — the kind who did everything right and did it well, before I ever questioned what "right" actually meant. Then I spent 12 years as a niche Recruiter, sitting across from people in some of the most pivotal moments of their careers — hearing their stories, understanding why they chose the paths they chose, and why so many of them had quietly stopped loving the work they once couldn't wait to do. Then 13 years in corporate HR. I've sat in the rooms where decisions are made about talented women. I've coached leaders day in and day out, and I've watched how companies reward self-erasure and constantly raise the bar so nothing is ever good enough. And then I lived the thing I had watched happen to others. Used up by a system that depended on me giving more than I was getting back. "The turning point wasn't a revelation. It was a collapse. And on the other side of that collapse, I found the work that actually moved the needle." On the other side of that collapse, I found Rapid Transformational Therapy®, attachment theory coaching, and deep inner compass work — and the beliefs I had been carrying since childhood finally shifted. When those beliefs shifted, everything shifted. I stopped tolerating being used. I started the business I had been too afraid to start for eight years. I moved to a new city. And in April 2026, I walked away from corporate HR for good. I chose myself. I'm not here as someone who has it all figured out. I'm here as someone who has been through the fire — and found the specific combination of tools that actually work. That's what I bring to every client I work with.
