Beginnings

It all began on a cold February night in Massachusetts.

I was blessed to be born to amazing, deeply loving parents. My father hardworking and giving. My mother compassionate and caring. I was an only child. The first, and the last.

I was creative. I loved making things and playing make-believe. I loved writing and design. I loved to dream. To pretend I was in far-off lands halfway around the world, from times long ago.

I was sensitive and quiet. My eyes told the story of my soul. Empathetic by nature and compassionate to the core. I had a gift to share with the world.

I was born an old soul. Wise beyond my years. I preferred the company of elders and the deep conversations we would have.

I preferred to chart my own course and follow my own interests. I often felt as if I was from somewhere else. I often felt out of place, out of time, out of context.

With each passing year, as I grew into an adult, my essence slowly fell asleep…

Chasing Success

I always had a deep inner drive to succeed. I earned an MBA in global business by the age of 24. I completed my studies in design at RISD by the age of 27.

I started my own design firm at the height of the 2008 financial crisis. Everyone told me to find a job. To do what was safe. To seek security and consistency.

But those words went against everything I believed. Against the very fiber of my being.

The next decade brought far more success than I ever imagined. My business was thriving. I was earning more than I dreamed of making.

I was working with notable clients around the world. My name became synonymous with good design and success.

Yet under the hard-driven surface, my essence was yearning to shine through. I was seeking freedom, exploration, and discovery. I wanted to go my own way, to chart my own course.

Lonely Nights

From the outside, I was the picture of success. I was living in luxury buildings, driving beautiful cars, shopping in designer boutiques, and collecting original art.

Yet deep within, I was unhappy. I would wake up every day with a feeling of existential dread. A sinking feeling in my heart. A void in my soul. A sense of sorrow. A sense of betrayal.

I felt I was living someone else’s life.

My days were all the same. Working away from dawn to night on projects that didn’t bring me any joy. Work for which I had lost my passion long ago.

Deep in the night, I would wonder. Is this all there is? Where does it end? How can this possibly go on forever? What else could I possibly do? Where do I turn? Can I even begin again?

I knew something had to change. I knew deep in my soul I was meant to be doing something else. Something deeper. Something of far greater meaning and profound impact for myself and others.

My essence buried within had been ignored for too long. It was finally breaking its way out. It wanted to be heard. It wanted to be free.

Awakening

In my darkest hours, I was questioning everything.

My career. My purpose. What I was truly passionate about.

I was questioning the very foundation I built my life on. I was questioning the thriving business I had created and built from the ground up.

I knew deep within it was time to let the façade fall. It was time to remove the mask I was always wearing. It was time to let my essence break free.

And when the student is ready, the teacher appears. And it was on a warm summer day when my first coach appeared.

With a message of light and abundance. A message of creative free spirit. A message that was my call to awakening.

So, the journey began. The journey to my essence. To my soul’s truth. The journey to my North Star.

A journey on which I would learn so much…

I learned I had lost touch with who I truly was.
I learned I had been living my life behind an exquisitely crafted mask.
I learned I had let the essence of my inner child fall asleep.
I learned to let go of what no longer served me.
I learned to tame the voice of my inner critic.
I learned to connect with the wisdom of my higher self.
I learned to follow the callings of my soul, rather than the wishes of others.
I learned to awaken and activate the creator within.
I learned to step into my power.
I learned I am a spiritual being having a human experience.
I learned I am a teacher.
I learned I am a guide.

And above all, I learned I was being called to help others like myself.

Becoming

Becoming a coach was one of the most profound callings I have ever had.

I have studied with the greatest and been certified by some of the best.

But my most profound and transformative lessons have come from my own journey of self-discovery and reinvention. A journey of returning to my essence and discovering my soul’s truth.

We are always best positioned to help who we once were. And it is my purpose to help others like I once was. To help them awaken to their essence and soul’s truth.

To help them create a soul-aligned life of deep fulfillment and passion. To guide them to make sense of their innermost calling, and bring clarity, focus, and intention to their path forward.

I believe each of us has the power to create a life of freedom, abundance, and adventure. A life driven by our dreams, aligned with our deepest values, in service to our highest calling.

So, are YOU ready for the journey? Let’s discover your North Star.

Imagine…

feeling like you never work a day in your life. Waking up, eager to start your day, driven by the passion at the core of your soul. Imagine designing the very life you want—painting your vision and reinventing yourself to create it. Living wherever you want in the world—in freedom, abundance, and adventure.

Imagine…

forever abandoning the concept of a work week, where time is structured by windows of freedom on the weekend. Imagine transcending to a place where time is only perceived through the manifestation of your passion, and experiences of adventure.

Imagine…

leaving behind fear, resistance, and limiting beliefs, to fully live in creation and abundance. Embracing who you truly are on the deepest level, and in the darkest corner. Living in serenity, self-awareness, and mindful presence. Imagine witnessing the embodiment of light, love, and creativity that you truly are.

You can have this. All of it.

And you deserve to. We all do. This is living in alignment with your North Star. It’s time to discover what you love, and love what you do.
