Big Moments - launches, promotions, transitions, stepping up
A launch date circled on the calendar. An interview scheduled. A price increase you've been building toward. A new role, a new direction, a public announcement you've been quietly preparing for.
These are the moments everything has been building toward. And they're also — not coincidentally — the moments the Quiet Critic gets loudest.
Not because you're not ready. Because the stakes feel real. Because more people will see you. Because claiming a bigger space feels vulnerable in a way that everyday work doesn't.
This collection of posts is about big moments — what makes them hard, what makes them worth it, and what it looks like to walk into them as the full version of yourself rather than a played down version.
If you're in one right now, you're in the right place.

You Know It's a Verb, Right?
Leadership isn't something you earn once and then have. It's something you practice — every day, in every interaction, at every level of the work.
This book (which I had the joy of co-authoring) is for anyone who senses there's more to leadership than their title reflects — whether you're early in your journey, already leading a team, or running a business and realizing that leading yourself and your clients is its own kind of leadership. Using everyday language and real-life examples, it's a roadmap for the practice of becoming the leader you're already capable of being.
Because leadership doesn't happen because you sat in a classroom or earned a credential. It happens because you prepare for it.
Author Stylist Guide: Own Your Greatness, Get Visible, and Share Your Message
You published the book. Now the opportunity arrives — a book signing, a podcast invitation, a speaking engagement — and suddenly it's not about the writing anymore. It's about you, showing up, in real time, as the person behind the work.
The Author Stylist Guide is for that moment. Not how to get more opportunities — how to make the most of the ones that come to you, so you show up with confidence, shine in the room, and let your book and message reach the people who actually need them.
You already have the courage and the gifts that got you here. This book helps you use them.
