About
The Coach Who’s Been In Your Heels
For years, I measured my worth by how much I could accomplish, how perfectly I could execute, and how little I needed from others. I built a successful career while constantly questioning if I deserved to be in the room.
On the outside? Polished, professional, and put-together. On the inside? Exhausted, uncertain, and waiting for someone to expose me as a fraud.
Sound familiar?
My Breaking Point Became My Breakthrough
It wasn’t until I found myself utterly depleted—physically, emotionally, and mentally—that I realized something had to change. Not just another time management system or productivity hack, but a fundamental shift in how I approached leadership and life.
What I discovered changed everything: The overthinking, people-pleasing, and perfectionism that plagued me weren’t character flaws or lack of leadership skills. They were adaptive responses my body and brain had developed over years of navigating challenging environments.
This revelation led me to transition from my 20-year corporate career to become a Certified Trauma-Informed Coach, combining my leadership experience with deep understanding of how our nervous systems impact our professional performance.
Why Trauma-Informed Coaching for Corporate Women?
Let’s clear something up: When I say “trauma,” I’m not just talking about major life events. I’m talking about the accumulation of experiences where you learned:
Your voice wasn’t valued
These experiences create patterns that show up in your leadership style, decision-making, and confidence levels today—whether you realize it or not.
My approach combines the practical (strategic career moves, communication techniques, boundary-setting, to name a few) with the neurobiological (understanding how your nervous system responds to stress and uncertainty).
The result? Real confidence that comes from within, not from external validation or perfect performance.
Why Choose Me As Your Coach
Where Southern Charm Meets Strategic Insight & Emotional Intelligence
There are plenty of executive coaches out there. Here’s why women leaders choose to work with me:
I Blend Academic Knowledge with Real-World Experience
With a degree in Behavioral Science, a Master’s in Counseling, and 20 years in the corporate world climbing the leadership ladder, I bring both theoretical understanding and practical experience to every coaching relationship. After reaching senior leadership, I made the leap into entrepreneurship, which gave me firsthand insight into corporate and business owner challenges.
I Combine Corporate Strategy with Nervous System Science
While most coaches concentrate solely on mindset or strategy, my specialized training as a Certified Trauma-Informed Coach, along with my background in behavioral science, enables me to grasp how your body’s automatic responses influence your leadership performance. This deeper approach fosters lasting change instead of temporary fixes.
I'm a Published Author on the Hidden Struggles of Success
In my book “Suffering in Comfort”, I explore the paradox that many successful women experience—achieving external markers of success while struggling internally. This work has helped countless women recognize that their challenges aren’t personal failings but common experiences that can be addressed with the right approach.
I Speak Corporate Truth with Southern Directness (Bless your little heart 😊)
No fluffy coaching language or vague encouragement here. I’ll tell you exactly what I see, with compassion but without sugarcoating. My clients appreciate that I say what others won’t.
I Get Results That Last
My clients don’t just feel better temporarily—they transform how they present themselves as leaders for the long term. Their confidence isn’t dependent on circumstances; it’s grounded in a fundamental shift in how they relate to themselves and their abilities.
My Approach: Head + Heart
What makes my coaching different is that I blend:
- Strategic Insight – Drawing from my corporate background to help you navigate leadership challenges
- Southern Straight Talk – Giving you compassionate but direct feedback that others won’t
- Nervous System Knowledge – Teaching you how to regulate your body’s responses in high-pressure situations
- Proven Leadership Tools – Providing practical techniques you can implement immediately
I don’t do fluffy, feel-good coaching that leaves you inspired but unchanged. I roll up my sleeves and get into the trenches with you, helping you build sustainable confidence that withstands the pressures of corporate leadership.
