I believe we all can live in abundance and serve each other by sharing our talents rather than hiding them.

I listen to what you want your ideal life to be. I believe you’ve thought about it for a while before you felt free enough to share it.

I work with organizations, small business owners and individuals on their personal and professional development.

I am a master single mom, a proud military veteran, an experienced marathon runner and a successful entrepreneur.

I focus on your talents. I believe they have been with you all along. I believe what makes life exciting and fulfilling is how you use them.

I believe only boring people get bored.

My experience with diversity initiatives fuels my passion to empower others to discover and maximize their strengths. I believe this brings teams and families together.

Orchestrating transformations and being a catalyst turns me on. Do you know what turns you on?

I have used the tools I teach to create balance in my life and am grateful I had the courage to turn it right side up.

I write often and enjoy reading every day. I like to simplify the tools I learn so my clients have information to take away and options each time we meet.

If I had a magic wand I would sprinkle dust for all moms in the world to feel energetic, self-empowered, sexy and confident. I’d teach them how to fly on a trapeze and insist they extend compliments to each other daily.

I have taught my daughters how to take care of themselves. I offer them love and leadership. I think they are spectacular.

I get on the swings at the park with my kids. I like to color. I spread out big sheets of white paper on my kitchen table and scribe out my business plans with scented colorful markers. I didn’t realize I liked to do any of this until after I was 34 years old.

I enjoy teaching Pilates, group fitness classes, practicing yoga and running long distance. I am determined to do the full locust pose before I die. I enjoy moving my body. Challenging my body is my artwork. People want to bottle up my energy and take it home. I like to show them how to create their own.

I love that we can change our past all through our thoughts and see joy in what we used to think were our most painful situations.

I believe we base our self-worth upon others opinions far too often.

I am a certified coach with Dr. Martha Beck, a best-selling author and columnist for O: Oprah’s Magazine and an expert guest on the Oprah Show. I believe in her tools.

After living my entire life on a diet, consumed with acquiring things to make me “feel” better and sacrificing sleep to produce the PTA newsletter, I got real with my essential self.

I’m not shocked by the way people live or what they’ve tolerated before they made a shift. I’m happy for where they are today.

I had no idea life could feel this good. I believe we manifest exactly where we are today. I believe in a higher power and ask for guidance throughout the day every single day.
