You know that moment when you realize the path you’ve been following doesn’t quite fit anymore?
Yeah. Me too.
What got you here won’t get you where you’re meant to go.

That realization hit me like a gut punch. Burned to a crisp from a job and life I 'loved'; I found myself questioning everything at midlife. Is this it?
It’s all too easy to feel as though your brightest moments are a thing of the past. We’ve been sold a story about this stage of life that your best thinking, your best work—your best you—is behind you.
But what if that story is all wrong?
We spend years following the rules, checking the right boxes, doing what’s expected. And for a while, it works. Until one day, it doesn’t.
Refusing to Stay Stuck
For years, I thrived as an executive—leading teams, solving complex challenges, and helping others find their way forward. I was leading everyone else to success…and leading myself straight to burnout.
That’s what the outdated midlife story gets wrong.
I was chasing success built on shoulds, coulds, and musts that didn’t belong to me. No wonder I was burned out. And if I kept going, yes my best years would be in the rear view mirror.
The most powerful move you can make in midlife is to shift gears and lead your life based on what’s right for you.
That’s not always easy. It takes clarity to see it, trust to own it, and courage to act on it.
That’s exactly what my work is about—helping you strip away the noise and reconnect with your brilliance. Using a mix of Human Design, Gallup Strengths, and HeartMath, I help you flip the script, trust yourself, and take the lead to make the next chapter your best chapter.
