Honored and grateful to share that Break Free from Your Dirty Little Secrets has been recognized by The BookFest Awards as a Most Recommended book.

This book came from years of listening to women say things they thought they were alone in.
The quiet rules.
The identities we inherit.
The parts of ourselves we tuck away to succeed, belong, or keep the peace.

To see this work acknowledged alongside so many powerful voices is deeply meaningful.

You can explore the full BookFest Awards reading at the link in the comments. Also, grab the first chapter for FREE from my book if you haven’t already.

Thank you to every woman who has read, shared, and trusted this book. This recognition belongs to you too.

A leadership shift to try this week:
Instead of carrying the answers, lead the thinking.

Ask:
What decision actually needs to be made here?
What matters most right now?
Who needs to own this next?

That shift changes how people experience you, fast.

If this resonates, you can book a connection call at the link in the comments.

There’s a moment in every coaching session where the conversation could go deeper or stay familiar.

This month’s coaching newsletter is about what happens when you choose depth. We’re talking about bold coaching, the questions that change the direction of a session, and why real transformation requires more than a good conversation.

Link to read it is in the comments.

If you’ve had moments recently where you’ve thought,
“I could be contributing at a higher level,”
that’s not dissatisfaction.

That’s your cue.

Many high-achieving women reach a point where competence alone no longer feels satisfying.

Not because they’ve mastered everything but because they’re ready for something more precise.

Influence means this:
Shaping direction, not just executing tasks.
Setting the tone, not just meeting expectations.
Being trusted for judgment, not just reliability.

That shift is subtle and powerful.

When you notice it, it’s worth paying attention.
It’s often the signal that how you lead is ready to change.

If you want support navigating that transition with clarity and intention, you can book a connection call at the link in the comments.

Leadership today requires more than strategy.

It requires presence, clarity, and the ability to engage people without managing every detail.

I recently released a new speaker reel that captures the work I do with leaders and teams, helping them think clearly, communicate effectively, and lead at the next level.

Watch the reel and book a call to discuss your event you might be in need of a speaker for. .
