I’ve always believed that every person has a story worth telling, a voice worth sharing, and the ability to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others.
Pour Yourself a Cup of Coffee or Tea and Join Me for a Conversation.
For as long as I can remember, stories have found their way to me.
From an early age, people trusted me with their dreams, milestones, crossroads, and questions about what came next. Looking back, I can see those conversations were preparing me for the work I do today.
A Journey That Continued to Unfold
Before writing my first book or founding Divine Phoenix, my career centered on international human resources, executive coaching, leadership development, and strategic planning, including serving as Vice President of Strategic Planning for a global Fortune 500 company.
Living and working in London expanded my perspective and reinforced something I still believe today: meaningful leadership begins with understanding people.
Writing was part of that journey from the beginning. Leadership and business articles eventually gave way to books and a deeper exploration of storytelling, creativity, purpose, and human potential.
Writing Changed the Way I See the World
Writing has been one of my greatest teachers.
My first book, Live the Life of Your Dreams: 33 Tips for Inspired Living, opened a new creative chapter that grew into multiple bestselling and award-winning books.
Today, I’m honored to be a best-selling and four-time award-winning author. Each book has challenged me to think more deeply, ask better questions, and see the world through a broader lens.
A Conversation About Living Your Potential
