ILLUMINATING THE HuMAN EXPERIENCE With Depth, DELIGHT & dazzle

Every day I wake up grateful to stretch my body, reconvene with the sunshine and hug my husband and little girl. In my life, I've moved through wonderful things and awful things–having survived a family-wide tragedy in early childhood and a near-fatal accident not long ago.

That's why I"m a multi-passionate author, editor and journalist who’s committed to sparking rare and invaluable conversations that unlock hearts, energize minds and swing open doorways of possibility.

In my almost 10-year career, I've worked with a fascinating range of top mental health experts, spiritual thought leaders and famed personalities including Deepak Chopra, Daymond John, Dr. Caroline Leaf, Dr. Venus Nicolino (“Dr. V”) and Gabby Bernstein. Along the way, I’ve served as editor-in-chief of an inspired living magazine and executive lifestyle editor for a beauty and fashion magazine, and have written countless essays and feature stories for top women-geared media sources including Oprah.com, Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire, Oprah Daily, Woman's Day, Mirabella and POPSUGAR—many of which have been syndicated by Apple News, MSN and Yahoo!, and shared millions of times. You can also find me as a featured guest on a variety of Forbes and iHeartMedia top podcasts.

Which means that love notes from all corners of the globe have landed in my DMs and emails, thanking me for serving as solace during a nasty breakup, a guide for carving out boundaries with in-laws, a spotlight for narcissists in social circles, and the courage to do everything from exile their breast implants and reclaim their health, to turn their nose up at mom guilt and reclaim their identity in more vivid ways after giving birth. It delights me to imagine that my words are probably scribbled in journals and pinned to bathroom mirrors I’ll never see.

With a deep intrigue for human beings, an allegiance to science and a fiery passion for smacking my readers in the face with comfort and truth, the human quest for authentic expression, joy and transformation is my playground of discovery.

This inspired me to call upon my vault of personal and professional experiences in order to create the Radical Life Renovation: A Guided Program to Heal the Past, Reclaim Your Power & Build a Future You Love, an interactive book packed with soulful stories, life-building exercises, sacred rituals and empowering science.

Since its release, I've been deep in the process of researching, interviewing and fleshing out stories for my debut hardback book–a dazzling exploration of the gifts and opportunities within pain and trauma.
