Our next speaker spent ten years researching why smart, capable women keep repeating patterns that make them miserable, and building a framework to help them finally stop.
She is a bestselling author and emotional wellness and confidence coach specializing in midlife transformation. Her work goes beyond behavior and gets to the root- the core wounds formed in childhood that quietly shape every relationship, every decision, and how a woman shows up in her own life.
She has lived everything she teaches. Her research is built on her own transformation, and that journey became the foundation of her signature Unbecoming Method Framework.
When she’s not doing this work, she can be found with her two children, a good book, somewhere far from home, laughing with her friends, or, most likely, eating chocolate.
