ABOUT ME

I'm just a girl from Ohio, but the truth is, I always knew I was meant for something big...

I know firsthand what it means to feel that you're meant for something big, and yet not know how to make it happen. To wonder with each passing day, when your life is finally going to "get good". I've been there. Since transforming my own life, I've gone on to help thousands of women just like you. I'm all about helping you tap into what you truly want and cut through the B.S. that's stopping you from getting it so you can finally achieve your true potential and ultimately, create a life that's better than your dreams. If I can do it, you can too...

MY STORY

FROM STARBUCKS TO SUCCESS

In 2008, my whole life changed course. I literally turned the car around in between Ohio and Chicago and decided not to go to graduate school as planned. Somehow I knew it wasn't the right next step for me; there was something more. I moved back in with my parents and fell into a major quarter-life crisis. After a series of low-paying jobs (including working at Starbucks) that left me feeling bored and stuck, I decided I had to follow my heart and make a change. So I started to dream big—about moving to London (where I knew no one), writing a book (which I wasn’t sure anyone would read), and launching my own coaching business (without knowing if I could earn a dime). And people told me what I wanted wasn’t “realistic.” But in my opinion, the goal of life is not to be realistic. 

"I made $442 the first month of my business —and hit six figures in six months. Inside of 18 months, I hit seven figures—a meteoric rise that would be impressive for anyone, let alone a small-town girl from Ohio."

I started my business in 2014, $30,000 in credit card debt and $90,000 in student loan debt. I had never run a business, coached, marketed my services -- you name it -- but I learned how to make my dreams a reality. My husband gave me his credit card for my first coaching program, took my initial photos, helped me build my website (you get the point). I made $442 the first month of my business —and hit six figures in six months. Inside of 18 months, I hit seven figures—a meteoric rise that would be impressive for anyone, let alone a small-town girl from Ohio. What I'm saying here is you don't have to have all the answers, you just have to get started. Your heart knows the way. Trust it.

TODAY

I love helping women create a life that's better than their dreams with my international media and lifestyle brand I Heart My Life.
