Founder + CEO | Global Speaker | Former Clinical Therapist 

I’m a founder, speaker,  and thought leader in the personal development space who's committed with helping you unlock your potential, further your impact and elevate your confidence to share your mission with the world. 

My work, is largely based on the power of your reclaiming your identity, journeying through self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and personal confidence. A true manifestor, a former clinical therapist- I’m deeply committed to conscious and abundant energy, working with compassion and empathy at the center of our work. 

But my mission is to help you truly reclaim your inner identity to have the audacity to think big and the confidence to transform change! 

As your official hype-girl, I am here to champion you and help you embrace the best and most aligned version of yourself so your impact grows exponentially with your community!

My journey as a third culture kid- navigating the world while trying to make sense of my own identity. My story spans from a childhood spent in the Middle East, Africa, Australia, and finally to the US—with empathy playing a pivotal role. I reclaimed who I am based on who I desire to be and through a career in psychology for the past 18 years- I am ready to help you step into the best version of yourself! 

If you're ready to catapult from where you are right now... to where you know in your bones you were always meant to be so you can grow your movement and leave your legacy...
