I grew up across four continents as the daughter of a diplomat, which made me a student of humanity and taught me to adapt to change and uncertainty faster than most.  With an M.A. in Economics, I followed my father into public service, eventually serving as a Strategic Advisor in senior, high-pressure roles with the Government of Canada. On paper, life looked perfect: a rising career, a loving family, and many professional awards and accomplishments. But on the inside, I felt unfulfilled, exhausted, constantly chasing happiness and worn down by  systems that did not support meI felt completely misaligned and my harsh inner critic didn't help matters.

Being the problem solver that I was I turned to traditional leadership programs, worked with a coach, and did talk therapy. They all offered some insight and temporary relief.  But what actually moved the needle for me was going inward with meditation that was practiced by global leaders I looked up to.

The performance results were fast. A calmer mind, sharper focus, better supported me for the rocky ride ahead in my personal life. In rapid succession I lost my father to cancer, sustained a brain injury, navigated a cancer diagnosis, dissolved my fifteen year marriage and became a solo parent.  Over this period I meditated for hours a day and expanded my study and practice of mindful self-compassion, breathwork, sound therapy, intuitive guidance, somatic practice and many other mind-body modalities.

Through this journey, I stepped into my own self-leadership and now I guide others ready for the inner adventure to transcendence.
