I help people move from insight to action and come home to themselves in the process.

Who I Am

Simple, direct, and personal. Good if you want clarity over creativity.

I’ve lived a lot of lives—golden child, athlete, consultant, coach, patient, seeker. For most of my early life, I tried to be everything for everyone—piling achievement on top of pain, chasing praise to outrun the deeper sense that something was wrong.

After years of chronic physical pain, emotional collapse, and a spiral of internalized “wrongness,” I broke. But what I found wasn’t ruin—it was the beginning of something truer.

Through deep personal work, plant medicine, self-rebuilding, and grief I couldn’t bypass, I began putting myself back together—not into the person I used to be, but someone more honest, grounded, and whole.
Now, my work lives at the intersection of performance, psychology, and inner alignment. I help emotionally intelligent, high-functioning people who’ve done all the “right” things but still feel stuck, off, or flat. People who are self-aware but lost in their own complexity. People who are ready to trade perfection for presence—and traction.

What Makes My Work Different

Grounded Approach

My coaching draws from psychology, leadership, plant medicine integration, storytelling, somatics, and my own Self-IMPROVment system. But I avoid jargon translating complex ideas into grounded, usable tools that turn abstract growth into real-world steps.

Lasting Change

I help people name what they’ve been too close to see, find the language to hold it, and build structure that supports change without self-abandonment. It’s about creating alignment that lasts—not just clarity in the moment, but traction that sticks.

Clarity Over Advice

I don’t offer advice. I offer clarity.
I don’t perform insight. I help you find what’s real—and move from there. I guide people beyond surface-level breakthroughs, helping them ground insight into meaningful action.

Who I Work Best With

You’re probably not in crisis.  You’re probably functional, even admired.  But something’s off. You feel disconnected—from joy, from momentum, from meaning.  You want to feel like yourself again, but you can’t find the map back. I help:

Golden children who collapsed under the weight of other people’s dreams

People who’ve read all the books, done all the workshops, and still feel stuck

Anyone tired of overprocessing and ready for traction, not just insight

High-achievers with hollow centers
