For over a decade, I’ve helped people navigate hard moments and complex challenges with clarity and momentum. I’ve shared these tools with thousands of people in workshops, conference rooms, and through guided resources. My work centers on practical, creative approaches to problem-solving; most notably The Fear Breakthrough, a three-step method rooted in neuroscience and built for real humans under real pressure.
Some people come to this work in the middle of a personal disruption: a diagnosis, job loss, major transition, or moment of uncertainty. Others encounter it in a professional setting, when teams need steadiness, clear thinking, and better decision-making.
In every context, the goal is the same: to help people think clearly, move forward, and respond to challenge with intention rather than fear.
Explore the ways we can work together below.

“I didn't learn this framework in a textbook; I built it in 2013 while navigating debilitating anxiety as an entrepreneur, then tested it through my MS diagnosis, infertility, job loss, and more.”
