Feeling stuck even when everything looks right?
You're not imagining it—and you're not alone
Stop living the life others chose for you. Start living the one that's actually yours.
I help people who feel stuck or disconnected reconnect with who they really are, get clear on what they actually want, and build lives that feel authentic and fulfilling—through personalized coaching, transformative experiences, and supportive community.

You're allowed to want what you want, even if it doesn't make sense to others
Something feels off, even when everything "should" be working. It’s real even if it feels hard to name. See if any of these feel familiar:
-
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
"I should be happy, so why do I feel so empty?"
-
You show up for everyone else but can't remember the last time you asked what YOU want. Your needs get buried under everyone else's expectations, and you've lost touch with your own voice.
"What would happen if I stopped putting myself last?"
-
You know you're capable of more but feel trapped between your current reality and what's possible. You know it's 'not this'—but you haven't said so out loud.
"I'm meant for something bigger, but I don't know what or how."
-
You're facing a decision or transition and feel paralyzed by options. This is a decision everyone expects you to have figured out—but you're not even sure what you want.
"Which path is actually mine?"
-
You're moving through a life that looks good on paper, but doesn't feel like yours. You're ready to stop sleepwalking and start choosing—but you need help figuring out what to choose.
"How did I get here, and how do I get somewhere that feels more... me?"
You don't have to burn it all down. But you do have to stop pretending you’re fine.
I’ve been there too...
Certified Co-Active Coach
Human-centered Learning Expert
Ignite the Spark Leader
I spent years doing what I thought I "should"—worked hard, shifted career paths, climbed the corporate ladder, checked boxes I was supposed to care about, tried to fix what felt broken on the surface. But I still felt stuck and unfulfilled, like I was living someone else's version of success.
Everything changed when I stopped trying to become someone else and started getting curious about who I already was.
Through leading corporate development teams, becoming a certified Co-Active coach, launching my own practice, and even experiencing the same Ignite the Spark program I now lead, I discovered something powerful:
The more clear you are on who you are and what you want, the more confident and purposeful your life becomes.
Here's what I believe:
You deserve to live your dreams—even if they surprise people
You deserve someone who believes in your potential unconditionally
You're not broken or behind—you're just ready for something more authentic
What makes me different? I bring balance, inspiration, and safety to this work. That means you get a rare space to be completely honest, take real risks, and flourish in ways you never imagined.
