"Maybe It’s Just This Company…"
For years, I kept switching jobs thinking, “Maybe it’s just this company.” 😉Six roles in 10+ years of working in HR, and still… nothing had felt truly right. The truth? I love helping people, but in HR, I wasn’t able to do it in the way that felt authentic to me. I thought I had a job problem—turns out what I really had, was an alignment problem. It wasn’t until I had my first complimentary coaching call back in 2021 where I said out loud what deep down I had always know

Advocate & Elevate: Transform Your Career with Confidence
April showers... reminds me of a perfect time for fresh starts and new beginnings You 🌻 I still remember the first time I asked for a raise. It was 2011, and the thought of that conversation made my stomach churn and my palms sweat. I rehearsed what I was going to say about a hundred times, tweaking it to get my message and ask across clearly. It was scary AF to think about... but eventually, I took a deep breath, walked into the meeting, and made the ask. And guess what?

Consistency Over Perfection
🎶Promises, Promises🎶 We all have the best intentions - 💯. We say " yes" to plans we don’t actually have the energy for. We tell ourselves we’ll start that project tomorrow.

Start 2025 with Self-Acknowledgement and Growth 🌟
Well, 2024 has come to a close and we're at the precipice of 2025. Around this time, we naturally reflect on all we’ve accomplished, the challenges we’ve faced, what we've learned, and the ways we’ve grown. It’s also the perfect time to acknowledge ourselves and to honor the greatness we’ve brought into the world in 2024! This idea of self-acknowledgement is something I want to talk about today because it’s not just important—it can be transformative. A brilliant coach onc

Set Boundaries for a Happier Holiday Season (and Beyond)
Holiday season is upon us. It's a wonderful time of year when we get to spend time with the ones we love and share gratitude AND it can also bring some seasonal pressure and stress. So I thought it would be a perfect time to talk about B-O-U-N-D-A-R-I-E-S 🎶. This is something I've been working on myself over the last couple of years. What I've noticed in my experience is that setting boundaries at first felt quite uncomfortable. My boundaries having been sharing my opinion w
