I am passionate about the science and practice of integrating the unresolved issues that prevent people from living their life with clarity, passion and purpose. I am a mother, resilience expert, coach, friend, behavior strategist, writer, reader, backpacker, and authenticity chaser.

At Penn, I designed a resilience coaching program: a transformational approach that integrates the left-over, and unresolved issues that resulted from hardship. (Human hardship is known as trauma.) Throughout life, when a person experiences trauma, they form adaptations. Over time, these adaptations become maladaptive to the life they desire. My working model is that well-being is realized when one’s emotions and left-over issues are resolved and integrated in their nervous system.
