Your vision deserves a strategy.
Let’s build it—together.
This wasn’t about reclaiming a title—it was about reclaiming myself.
Now, I support other women walking similar paths. Women who’ve experienced trauma, burnout, or disconnection, and are ready to lead again—differently this time.
With over 20 years of experience across crisis management, communications, HR, health services, and social work, I blend strategy with empathy. My work is trauma-informed, values-driven, and grounded in creating emotionally safe spaces for women to rise—not by pushing harder, but by honoring what they’ve lived through and who they’re becoming.
I also work with nonprofits, local governments, and mission-driven teams to build community partnerships that center equity, resilience, and well-being.
Because leadership after trauma
isn’t a comeback story
It’s a reawakening.


Having navigated my own journey through trauma and healing, I intimately understand the challenges of rising after adversity. I specialize in supporting women emerging from such experiences—those ready to lead authentically without compromising their well-being. Together, we cultivate leadership that honors your lived experiences, safeguards your energy, and amplifies your unique voice.

As a three-time bestselling author on women's empowermet, I have explored the complexities and triumphs of women's journeys, providing insights and strategies that resonate with those seeking to reclaim their leadership and voice.
Grounded in trauma-informed practice, community development, and values-based strategy, I support nonprofits, local governments, and women-led organizations in building inclusive, people-first spaces—places where well-being is prioritized and impact is sustainable.
I’m a Certified Master Coach, Clinical Hypnotherapist, and Somatic Practitioner, with certifications in Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) for individuals and groups. I hold a Bachelor of Commerce in Finance with minors in Leadership and HR, and I’m currently pursuing a Master’s in Organizational Psychology. But degrees and credentials aside—what guides my work is the belief that healing and leadership are not separate. We rise stronger when we stop pretending we haven’t been hurt.
My approach is quiet, intentional, and rooted in real-life understanding. I’ve worked alongside first responders, mental health professionals, and community support teams, and I bring that same care, steadiness, and strategic insight to the women I serve.
Whether you're reimagining your leadership, rebuilding your confidence, or navigating a season of change—you don’t have to do it alone. Together, we’ll create a path that supports your voice, your boundaries, and the impact you’re here to make.
Because every woman deserves to lead from a place of wholeness—not survival.
Let’s work together to build your leadership from the inside out—with intention, clarity, and purpose.
