Let’s catch up!

This season has been full. I’ve been traveling, facilitating deep healing work, showing up on some incredible stages, and reconnecting with my purpose in new ways.

If you’re navigating life after loss, trying to show up strong for your family, or figuring out your next bold move, you’re not alone. And you’re in the right place.

Here’s what’s happening right now and how it can support you or someone you care about.

🌍 Scotland July 2025: Come With Me

In July, I’m attending the Doubt Yourself, Do It Anyway International Summit in Edinburgh, Scotland. I won’t be speaking—I’m going to learn, grow, and connect. Because even as a therapist, veteran, and leader, I still need spaces that feed my soul.

This summit is for therapists, coaches, and purpose-driven professionals who want to expand without burning out.

What’s included: ✔️ 12 CEUs ✔️ Inspiring workshops ✔️ Meals, community, and yes—Drag Show Karaoke ✔️ A chance to breathe, recalibrate, and grow in one of the most beautiful cities in the world

💥 EMDR Intensives: In Maryland, Virginia, or Fly In

These aren’t your average therapy sessions.

If you’re ready to stop spiraling and actually move forward, EMDR intensives are designed for deep, targeted healing over a short period of time.

I offer personalized, trauma-focused sessions to help you reset and reclaim your story—on your schedule.

Who it’s for:

Veterans
Professionals
People rebuilding after loss, burnout, or big transitions

🛡️ REDEFINE Program: Final Spots Left and We’re Still Seeking Sponsors

The REDEFINE Program is a six-week trauma-informed EMDR group experience created specifically for veterans and their spouses. It’s offered at no cost because healing should be accessible, not a privilege.

I created this program from my own story. As a veteran who experienced deep personal loss, I know the power of structure, community, and evidence-based therapy. This is more than group support. It’s a mission to rebuild lives with the right tools and the right people.

Here’s what’s currently available:

✅ Five spots for veterans

✅ Seven spots for spouses

✅ Weekly in-person sessions

✅ Focused EMDR therapy designed to support emotional regulation, growth, and healing

We are also still seeking sponsors. Every dollar directly funds a seat for someone who is ready to do the work but needs support to access care. If you or your organization wants to make a real difference in the lives of veterans and their families, this is your opportunity to step in with purpose.

Together, we are redefining what healing can look like.

🎤 Recent Highlights: Stages and Soul Work

Over the past month, I’ve had the honor of speaking at:

VETS 25 in Orlando
DAV Patriot Bootcamp
Power to Pursue (More photos dropping soon!)

These were mission moments. They reminded me that our voices, when grounded in healing, can move rooms, shift futures, and change lives.

🧭 One Final Takeaway: Get R.E.A.D.Y.

This year, I had the chance to meet two people I deeply admire

Katie Couric and Robert Irvine.

Katie turned unimaginable personal loss into global advocacy. Robert transformed his military roots and passion for service into a movement that changes lives.

Both showed me that grief and leadership are not opposites.

They’re partners.

That’s why I created the R.E.A.D.Y. Method—my signature framework for healing-forward leadership.

R – Recognize where you are and what you’re carrying

E – Evaluate your beliefs, habits, and headspace

A – Adapt your approach to the life you’re actually living

D – Deploy your truth, your tools, and your story

Y – Your Why keeps you grounded when life gets heavy

This isn’t just something I teach. It’s how I live. If you’re tired of pretending you’re fine or waiting to feel “ready,” start here.

No pressure. Just truth.

Because grief doesn’t cancel your leadership. It clarifies it.
