At 31, I was living the dream—$15K months, two homes, and Mai Tais on my back deck by 3 p.m. I had climbed the corporate ladder in Oil & Gas fast and hard. I was the first woman in the world to sell service rigs. I had quadrupled my revenue from $1,000,000 to $4,000,000 in the first nine months, and I was proud of the empire I had built.
The problem?
I was exhausted. Burnt out and trapped in a life that looked good on the outside, but on the inside, I was suffocating.
I had no boundaries. Everyone’s problems stuck to me like double-sided sticky tape. My marriage was drifting. My health was screaming. And despite all the “success,” I felt completely disconnected from myself.
So we blew it up.
My husband and I quit our careers, bought a beat-up 1972 Volkswagen van, and drove down the West Coast with no plan—just a deep need to find something real. Eventually, we sold our house, moved to Spain, and started over. A few years later, I faced my fear of being seen, studied acting, got an agent, and started showing up on set, figuring out who the hell I really was.
I thought it would take a year.
Ten years later, after deep healing, big reinventions, and a whole lot of messy magic—I’m finally here: healthy, clear, and living in full alignment.
Now? I help women do the same—ditch the burnout, drop the masks, and build success rooted in who you really are.
Are you ready to do the same?
P.S. Still wondering how we ended up living in a van down by the river?

Much love,
I went from two homes and $15K months… to living in a van down by the river. Rock bottom? Maybe. Wake-up call? Definitely.
Best decision I ever made?
Without question.
