HOW I BECAME A BOUNDARIES COACH
I worked for Yale University for 19 years and was laid off in 2017. Through a series of serendipitous events, I found my way into the world of startups, innovation and entrepreneurship in New Haven and at Yale. I knew these were "my people" so I decided to start my own coaching and Consulting business. Of course, you have to choose a niche, so being a boundaries coach just made sense for me. That's because learning to build healthy boundaries in 12-step recovery for codependence revolutionized my life. I saw the impact on myself, my colleagues and workplace when I built healthy boundaries, and I want that for other professional women too.

Vision
A world where people who’ve been taught to put themselves last finally feel safe inside their own lives. A world where professional women stop shrinking or over-functioning and instead trust themselves, honor what they need, and make choices that reflect their values instead of other people’s expectations.
Mission
To help professional women, and anyone who identifies with their struggles, restore the internal safety they were never taught to build. I provide the tools, language, and support that help people turn inward, reconnect with their truth, and stop saying yes to what drains them. This work gives people the clarity and confidence to reclaim their time, power, and presence so they can live as who they truly are.
Why This Matters
Many of us grew up believing our worth was tied to how much we gave, fixed, or tolerated. This conditioning leaves people exhausted and disconnected from themselves. It also erodes the internal safety needed to trust your own voice and make choices that honor your truth.
Boundaries aren’t just external limits. They’re the practices that rebuild self trust and restore your sense of safety inside your own life. When you feel grounded and steady within yourself, you protect your energy, speak with clarity, and make decisions that reflect your values instead of settling for old patterns.
And when one person breaks free from over-functioning and self neglect, they shift entire families, workplaces, and communities. Personal freedom isn’t only a private win. It’s the spark that fuels collective transformation.
