Hello, I’m Emily!

Less than 2 years ago,  just months after earning a well-deserved promotion, I found myself more unhappy, unfulfilled, and burnt out than ever before.  Despite this career milestone, I found myself on the verge of a very real, physical and mental breakdown. For the first time, I didn’t have a solution or know the right next step. The only thing I knew to be true, was that I needed a lifestyle overhaul far more than I needed the false sense of safety, security, and recognition that my corporate title provided.

Overtaken at this point, daily, by physical and emotional symptoms of true anxiety and burnout, I knew I had to make a change before things got any worse.  Without a second thought, I resigned, never looking back. This decision marked the beginning of my personal healing and transformation journey.  

As inspiring as my story sounds on paper, many of you can relate to the fact that having the courage to walk away from a lifestyle that no longer serves the most authentic version of ourselves—or even holding a million-dollar vision—is only the beginning of any entrepreneur’s journey.

Limiting beliefs, lack of resources, confidence, self-worth, and the realities of everyday life, all became very real obstacles that stood between my vision and my current reality.

Thankfully, I have learned to prioritize the critical skill of slowing down, to eventually speed up. Harnessing the power of presence and making self-care a non-negotiable daily ritual-no matter what needs to get done. It’s about tuning into our inner voice, cultivating stillness to find clarity, and connecting with our internal wisdom. To show up fully for others, we must show up for ourselves, fully and unapologetically, first. It’s that simple.
