Why me? Because I’ve lived it.

I know what it feels like to lead something powerful while secretly feeling like a fraud and questioning your worth.

I built a multi-million dollar business, led a team of 30+ people, and became a name in my industry—all while navigating the crushing weight of shame, visibility anxiety, and constant, visceral imposter syndrome. And when it all imploded? Publicly? I had to rebuild not just my career, but my sense of self. That’s why this work isn’t theoretical for me. I don’t coach from a pedestal or what I’ve read in a textbook. I coach from the wreckage I crawled out of. I coach from a deep passion for helping people feel witnessed, supported, and deeply understood so they can finally move through the shame, imposter syndrome, self-protection, and exhaustion that is holding them back from truly showing up in their life.

I’m not here to “fix” you—I’m here to help you remember who you were before the world told you to shrink.

As a former licensed therapist with a background in leadership, equity-driven business building, and trauma-informed practices, I blend fierce honesty with deep compassion and strategy. I work with entrepreneurs, executives, leaders, disruptors, and anyone who is tired of over-functioning, apologizing, hiding behind perfectionism, and playing small.

This isn’t mindset fluff—it’s real, grounded, gut-level coaching for people who are done waiting for permission to take up space.

No two coaching journeys are the same, but here’s what you can expect when you begin with me:

  • A coach who sees you not just as a client, but as a full person with history, context, and complexity.

  • Space held for your whole truth—especially the parts you’ve been hiding—without having to perform.

  • High energy, high honesty, and zero tolerance for shame-led leadership or shame-based living.

  • A space that welcomes your laughter, your grief, your rage, your confusion—all of it.

  • Honest, but compassionate, reflections that invite insight—not shame.

  • A full-body reclaiming of your life—not performative ‘empowerment’.
