As a coach and strategist, I work with folks who are building beyond the edge of the map — transcending their industries, their mentors, even the frameworks that once defined them.

My gift is helping them marry their deepest purpose with grounded, elegant strategy so their outer world reflects their inner evolution.

I’m wired to sense what’s ready to evolve — the pattern just beneath the surface, the subtle misalignment between vision and form — and to bring clarity, focus, and aliveness to the process of transformation.

My clients aren’t just growing businesses and running teams; they’re shaping new worlds. And my role is to help them bring their next era into form with integrity, intelligence, and joy.

To give you a sense of what I bring to my work, I’m drawing from all of these (and much more)...

  • A 20-year wild, eclectic rocketship of a career working with the greats before I decided to forge my own entrepreneurial path.

    • I was lucky enough to spend five years in strategic advisory roles to two of the world’s most successful entrepreneurs.

    • I spent the pandemic as Tory Burch’s speechwriter and lead Brand Comms person and four years at the right hand of British serial entrepreneur John Hunt, where we co-created a multi-million dollar entertainment brand about spying, a non-profit supporting social entrepreneurs, and a documentary film about a medieval horse race.



    • I also gained experience in another eight industries and leadership roles in pretty much every company function…

  • A deep curiosity about how the mind works and how we change it.

    • I spent my twenties watching my mother navigate early-onset Alzheimer’s. The unexpected gift: a masterclass in surrender, love, joy, heartbreak, grief, and what makes us human.

    • Which led me to two breakdowns after which I put my self back together by experimenting with everything from traditional therapy to meditation, EMDR, daily cold showers, psychedelics, and a ton of diverse coaching modalities.

    • All of which led me to realizing I wanted to be a healer and guide. So I sought out and studied with the creators of the coaching industry, as well as dozens of world-class experts in psychology, neuroscience, and philosophy across three continents.

  • Real-life experience getting out of the matrix. Untangling a conventional life to create an unconventional one aligned with my soul's purpose, my wildly varied interests, and everything I know to bring me joy.

    • I called in and married my big love: we met in 2018, got engaged a year later, and have two phenomenal daughters.

    • I am thriving in motherhood with a deep network of support and the mental tools and resources to enhance the love and joy and banish the guilt. (Plus a truckload of phenomenal childcare that I am immensely grateful for.)

    • We’ve created an annual calendar of rituals and adventures with friends and family that fills me up and weaves an ever-denser tapestry of love and support around our family.

    • My husband and I bought a magical shared vacation house in Big Sur with 7 other couples - a place where our kids are building core memories and where we’ll hang out and grow old with our friends.

    • Plus I’m building this heart-led and soul-fired coaching practice and working on a book on how to flourish in the era of AI that’s been dancing with me for the last decade.

  • Plus, half a lifetime of future-visioning and storytelling around culture, society, and business, including:

    • Undergraduate and master's degrees in philosophy, politics, and economics

    • Writing speeches and reports for Davos, The Forbes Women’s Summit and supporting interviews with almost every major news outlet

    • And a voracious appetite for thoughtful science fiction and optimistic takes on potential futures.

I’m working on a book… How to Flourish in the Age of AI. I should start by saying that I’m not immune to the doomsday chatter — but for 99% of us, it’s not a helpful way to live. Who really knows what’s going to happen next?

I’m honored to be an Advisor to the Tory Burch Foundation Fellows program and the New York Fashion Tech Lab.
