I speak to high-performers whose drive has hit an unexpected wall—and to the organizations that can’t afford to lose them. Having built and licensed a best-selling jewelry brand worn by global icons, navigated corporate strategy at Penguin Random House, and completely rebuilt my life after a brain tumor diagnosis at 30, I understand both the pressure to deliver and the total shock when life derails your momentum. Today, as a University of Chicago-trained psychotherapist and executive coach, I bridge the gap between human vulnerability and professional excellence. I translate evidence-based psychological frameworks—like ACT, CBT, and EMDR—into practical tools that help ambitious teams navigate burnout, major transitions, and high-stakes plot twists. Through warm, authentic storytelling and actionable strategy, I leave employees deeply inspired to reclaim their agency while providing leaders with a blueprint to foster sustainable resilience, purpose, and peak performance.
