An Origin Story
After dozens of coffee dates and happy hours with peers, the calls became clear.
Everyone asked how I broke into the television industry, why I left well- from playwriting to screenwriting and how I knew when to take the big leap … to move to LA from the Bay.
I found myself offering the same practical advice and spiritual support on repeat and soon recognized a through line:
People didn’t simply want career tips and strategies.
They wanted to know how to navigate the path that called to them.
They really wanted to learn how to overcome blocks, fears and uncertainty as they dared to move forward. So I drew from my vast interdisciplinary background, my spiritual practice and a visceral understanding of being unable to silence the dreams we can name.
Soon enough, my own 5-Point Compass led me to create the Academy + Podcast, in support of others in brave pursuit of wellness, while on the path that calls to them.
If you are someone in brave pursuit, I invite you to join us to
confidently navigate the hows, whens & whys on the path that calls to you.

>> Commit to Wellness
Together, we’ll lean further into our dreams without forsaking our wellness nor abandoning ourselves.
