What do you do and why do you do it?

I guide ambitious Gen X and midlife women to break free from invisible blocks and design a life of clarity, confidence, connection, and cash using my neuroscience-backed 3HQ™ Alignment Code—Head, Heart, Highest Self. It’s deeply important to me because I know the power of reinvention—I’ve navigated Oracle burnout, launched startups in college, and built multiple businesses after, driven by my own need for meaning and impact Now, I live to empower others to rewrite their stories and step into their full brilliance.

What changed for you after age 50?

Post-50, I embraced bold boundaries, prioritized alignment over achievement, and leaned fully into energy-based leadership. Talking openly about midlife reinvention, hormone shifts, and identity recalibration became not just an option—but my calling. That’s when The ReLaunch Co. shifted to center midlife transformation and elite visibility.

What would you tell the 20 or 30-year-old YOU?

Value isn’t earned by overachieving. Pressure will burn you out—as it did during my Oracle days when I hit $250 million in sales but lost myself I’d tell her: “Tune in to what lights you up. Wild hearts and soulful work matter much more than perfection or proving.”

What do you think you’ll tell yourself in retrospect at the end of your life?

No straight path was ever wrong. Each wound, pivot, and breakthrough layered depth onto your journey. You loved, you led, you raised others up, and your mission rippled farther than you ever imagined.

What impact do you think increased visibility can have on your business?

Visibility isn’t vanity—it’s vibration. When I step into the spotlight, I not only magnetize aligned clients but also inspire a movement—opening rooms, doors, and opportunities for other ReLaunchers. It exponentially amplifies our collective impact.

Who or what inspires you and why?

Ancient wisdom blended with modern science inspires me—along with figures like Dr. Bruce Lipton and HeartMath’s energy research that validate how frequency aligns with results. And, Florence Scovel Shinn for her belief in the power of mindset and declarations. Above all, my ReLaunch community ignites me—their transformations prove anything is possible.
