About Me

I’m a storyteller, speaker, and self-described joy bringer who believes that even our hardest moments can become the doorway to deeper connection, courage, and joy.

As a TEDx speaker, educator, and lifelong advocate for emotional well-being, I’ve spent years working with young people and now with women, helping them reconnect with what is real and true in their lives. My work centers on courage, authenticity, emotional honesty, and the belief that we are not defined by what happens to us, but by how we rise from it.

In my own life, I’ve supported my family through challenges including autism, anxiety, eating disorders, and trauma, while also navigating my own cancer journey and rebuilding after the end of a long marriage. Through these experiences, I discovered something powerful: joy isn’t something we wait for. It is something we choose.

Today, I share stories that invite people to move from their heads back to their hearts, embrace vulnerability, and find the courage to choose joy, regardless of what life is throwing at them.

I believe in the power of connection, the healing that comes from truth, & the quiet kind of courage it takes to keep your heart open—even when it’s been broken.
