Since you’re here, I imagine you’ve achieved so much of what you set out to do: the education, career, and accolades. You’ve created a life that looks, from the outside, like a real success story. But deep down, there’s a quiet, insistent voice whispering, “Is this it? This can’t be it. There has to be more.” I too, know that voice well.

If you're anything like me and the women I work with, you're no stranger to ambition. When you were little you dreamed of adventure, creativity, exploration, and making an impact in the world. You wanted to follow the spark of curiosity and express ideas that were uniquely yours. But somewhere along the way, you learned that being the “perfect student”—following the right path, achieving the right grades, and earning the right titles, status, and affiliation — was the way to fit in and find validation and security. So you excelled, climbing to the top with dedication and grit. Yet, now as you continue to age, you find yourself getting curious about those early dreams and passions still within you, wondering if it's still possible reignite them while at the same feeling afraid to make a move and telling yourself it's too risky and it's too late.

I know exactly where you’re coming from. I’ve walked a similar path. My first life changing encounter with the conflict between my desire to show up bigger and my fears came decades ago, when I moved to Mexico to study abroad for a year. Navigating a new culture in a second language without the comforts of home was both exhilarating and terrifying. I felt like a fraud - out of place and unprepared - most days. But what I initially thought was inadequacy turned out to be exponential growth. I wasn’t just surviving a year abroad - I was getting to know myself in a way I never had to before and building resilience, courage, and a deeper trust in who I was and what I was capable of achieving. That experience was one of my greatest teachers, teaching me that stepping into the unknown was essential to tapping into my potential. It was in that year that I learned to build a new understanding of, appreciation for, and relationship with the fear and discomfort I was experiencing. I began to learn that feeling afraid wasn't a sign that something was wrong, but a sign that I was learning, growing, and becoming a more confident and capable version of myself.

When I returned home, I knew I wanted to help others learn to move beyond the fear and experience that kind of growth. I went on to build a career in education, where I guided high-achieving students to learn a foreign language and travel abroad.  Yet I saw myself in so many of the young women I worked with. Young women who I realized had so much potential but often felt bound by the pressures of perfectionism and external expectations. I repeatedly saw many of my students playing the “perfect student” role, working hard for perfect grades and doing everything in their power to avoid making mistakes. Rather than developing a love for learning, learning to take calculated risks, or discovering their unique strengths and interests, they were learning to be careful and play small.

And then time and time again when I met their mothers, I saw a similar pattern: women who had achieved success and stability but felt the weight of their own unfulfilled potential and the pressure to continue “getting it right” rather than exploring what might truly bring them fulfillment, joy, and purpose. Then they were taking the pressures they were experiencing inside and putting them on their daughters without even realizing what they were doing.

It was through these experiences that I realized I was being called to impact change in a new area. I wanted to help these women, women like you, break free from the “perfect student" mold that was holding them back so they could create lives that allowed them to show up in bigger ways and feel fulfilled. So I began coaching high-achieving women to understand their fear and self doubt, own their voices, share their ideas, pursue their greater aspirations, and lead in ways that were authentic, powerful, and rooted in self-trust. This work felt urgent to me because I knew if these women could understand how to navigate fear, perfectionism, and self-doubt, they wouldn't just change their own lives—they'd become the role models their daughters and other women needed to see - examples of confidence, courage, compassion, and effective leadership.

I know that for you showing up bigger doesn't mean showing up in the ways you were taught you had to. This time it isn’t about doing more, making more money, or hustling and burning yourself out trying to attain a certain status, affiliation, or title. This time, it’s personal. You want to bring your unique ideas and experiences to life - for you that might mean becoming an entrepreneur, a writer, an artist, a speaker, a people leader, or a change-maker in your community, classroom, school district, home, organization, or business. Whatever your bigger dreams and aspirations might be, you want to make a change, inspire others, an create a ripple effect that shows other women and girls what's possible.

But I also know the familiar “perfect student” habits you have learned that keep you stuck and waiting until you feel ready and confident enough. So if you're experiencing that, I see you. But here's the truth - confidence doesn’t come from waiting - it comes from doing. The leaders and change-makers you admire all experience fear and self doubt, but they’ve learned to navigate their fears and self-doubt in a new way so they're able to take action anyway and keep showing up for what really matters to them.

My work is all about helping you show up with grounded confidence, quiet your fears and self doubt, and take the first steps to show up for what you really want. You’ll learn to lead yourself, make decisions from a place of courage, and share your ideas,  trusting that your unique voice deserves to be heard. Together, we’ll make sure that you can look back on your life without the ache of “what if,” and instead feeling so proud of the woman you are and way you showed up so courageously.

If you’re ready to make the impact you want to make, create a life you want, and feel proud of who you are and the way you show up, then let’s take the next step together.
