In addition to helping thousands of business leaders achieve new levels of success by leveraging the support of an assistant, BELAY has landed on the Inc. 5000 list of Fastest-Growing Companies and Best Places to Work list multiple times under my leadership.
I’m a growth-minded driver and a process savant who loves taking chaos and transforming it into systems and creating flow that facilitates growth.
Creating a life I love is my end goal. I work to live; I don’t live to work. I’ve spent the last decade walking the walk of what we call the Third Option: cultivating a harmonious life with a successful career. Or what I call refusing to give my family the leftovers and having plenty of energy left for them. Being a present parent – and a cool mom – is priority #1 for me.
I’m also the author of Rise Up & Lead Well: How Leveraging as Assistant Will Change Your Life & Maximize Your Time, where I share everything I’ve learned in my decade at BELAY – leading and training assistants having been BELAY’s first — and know the secrets for successfully hiring, training and onboarding one.
I also co-host the One Next Step podcast, interviewing the most successful and insightful entrepreneurs to equip listeners with practical insight and advice for running a thriving, healthy organization.
I’m passionate about helping others achieve their ultimate professional goals while cultivating the balance of work and life that best suits them.
I believe we own our journey, we take risks, and we rise up!
