MY BIO
Most would describe me as a career-focused, hard working person who loves a challenge and a good laugh. To add, I would say that the driving force in my life is potential. My biggest pet peeve is seeing myself or the people I love, play small because it is the easiest option.
I have enjoyed a dynamic career in executive marketing and consulting, primarily within the beauty industry. At the age of 48, I decided leave corporate and officially launch my coaching practice.
I hold a BA in Psychology from York University, an MSc in Leadership & Organizational Development, and a Graduate Certificate in Professional & Executive Coaching, both from The University of Texas at Dallas.
My biggest pleasure in life is having the opportunity to witness the very moment when a client connects to her potential and realizes she can achieve ANYTHING she wants. It is 100% why I do what I do.
QUIRK #1
I am obsessed with my doggo. She is my ride or die.
QUIRK #2
My ADHD noticeably kicks in at 3pm. While math is not wise, it's the best time to create!
QUIRK #3
My TV streaming choices reveal that I am a total nerd.
MY MOMENT
It took a major life event for me to realize how far my life had gone off course. It all became crushingly real when my marriage ended.
I had turned into a people-pleasing, fragment of who I once was and I was living a life that was completely disconnected to what I had envisioned for myself.
I was caught in a cycle of over-working, over-eating, and constant self-shaming because the life I was living wasn't mine. I couldn't see what was happening, until I was forced to face the truth.
As excruciating as my divorce was, I believe it was exactly what was needed. It helped me to make an essential decision; I could either continue to define my life by other people's needs and expectations, or I could rediscover who I truly was and create a new future for myself.
Fast forward three years later, I have navigated two residential moves, a career change, a breast cancer scare, a flood, and a host of unexpected challenges. Obstacles that would have left the old me in a heap on the floor.
Instead, I am thriving and I owe this to taking great care in building a foundational sense of self that supports all of my intentions.
My old habits of shaming, beating myself up, and letting myself down are no longer a part of my new life.
Today, I welcome challenge, change, and growth with enthusiasm because I am consistently developing and honoring who I am becoming.
It is a relief to finally trust that I am making the right decisions for myself, even when they might be wrong.
It is a sense of freedom that I never knew was possible, and a path that I am dedicated to sharing with women just like me.
