Bold AF! Activated & Free

You’ve checked all the boxes.
Built the career.
Earned the respect.
Handled it all, without dropping the ball.

From the outside, it’s “success.”
But inside?
There’s a whisper you can’t shake:
Is this it?

You love your life. You’ve worked hard for it.
And yet, there’s a part of you that wants… more.
Not more on your calendar.
More of what matters, the work, relationships, and impact that speak to your deepest calling.

That’s why I created the BOLD AF Workshop.
It’s not about fixing yourself.
It’s about stripping away the noise so you can finally hear your own voice again.

This is where high-achieving women come to:
Reflect without judgment
Get honest about what they really want
Leave with the clarity and courage to go after it

You’ve spent years delivering for everyone else.
This one’s for you.

DM me, "I`M IN" and I`ll send you the link to register.

First 5 to register get a complimentary Bold Breakthrough Session, a private 30-minute call to name what’s next and map your bold move.

The lie that keeps high-achieving women stuck isn’t lack of confidence, it’s playing it safe and calling it success.

I believed it.

Until one day, backstage before one of my first public talks.
Palms sweaty. Throat dry.
And this voice in my head: “Who do you think you are?”

That voice was familiar.
It had stopped me from asking for opportunities.
It had kept me saying “yes” to things I didn’t want.
It had me performing, always performing, for everyone else’s comfort.

Here’s the thing about fear: it’s sneaky.
It doesn’t always show up as panic.
Sometimes it’s perfectionism.
Sometimes it’s over-preparing.
Sometimes it’s staying quiet so no one notices you’re different.

But here’s the truth:
The only way through fear is to name it, out loud, and move anyway.

That’s what we’ll do together in the BOLD AF Workshop on August 23.
We’ll pull the curtain back on the fears that keep you from being fully seen.
And you’ll walk out with the clarity and the courage to stop hiding.

If you’ve been waiting for “the right time,” this is it.
Because nothing changes until you decide it’s your moment.

Join me August 23 and let’s get you Activated and Free.

If $5,000 feels “too high” to charge, read this.

You want to sign high-ticket clients.
But when it’s time to name your price?

Your voice drops.
Your confidence dips.
And you start wondering…
“Is this too much to ask?”

Here’s the truth:
If you believe $5,000 is too much for you to invest…

You’ll always hesitate to ask a client to pay that much.
This is the money block no one talks about.

You can’t close high-ticket clients if your own fear of investing is running the show.
This isn’t about greed.

It’s about integrity.

Because if you know your program delivers life-changing results,
why discount your impact?

I hosted a powerful training on, “How To Close Clients Who Are Freaking Out About Money.”

Inside, I walk you through how to confidently charge high-ticket prices—by first shifting the mindset that’s keeping you stuck.

Watch the full training here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipXxEU1F6Lg
And if this hit home, share it. You’re not the only coach who needed to hear this.

You weren’t “too emotional.” You were carrying years of silence.

You ever wonder why one tiny moment sets you off?

A sideways glance.
A tone that felt off.
A single piece of feedback that hits way too hard.

It’s not just about what happened today.
It’s about everything you’ve tucked away, for years.

Unspoken hurts.
Stories no one ever gave you space to process.
Times you were told to tone it down, be nice, hold it in.

What you felt was real.
But the volume? That came from a deeper place.

These are what I call Tripwire Emotions.
The emotional overreactions rooted in the past, not the present.

And if you’re the woman who always has it together…
You’ve probably judged yourself for feeling “too much.”

But what if that trigger isn’t something to be ashamed of
but something to be curious about?

In this video, I’m breaking down how Tripwire Emotions work,
and how you can stop being blindsided by your reactions.

Because silence doesn’t keep you safe.
It just keeps you stuck.

Repost this for the woman who needs to know:
She’s not too much. She’s just been holding too much.
