Leadership Development - leadership, executive presence, professional growth (not author-specific)
Leadership doesn't always come with a title.
Sometimes it looks like a corporate professional who's been doing next-level work for months before anyone formally recognized it. Sometimes it's a business owner who is, whether she thinks of herself this way or not, the leader of everything she's built. Sometimes it's someone who influences, guides, and holds space for others without a single direct report on an org chart.
What they have in common: they're navigating the gap between the leader they already are on the inside and the one they're still learning to claim on the outside.
This collection of posts are about that navigation. Presence. Growth. The kind of professional development that starts with owning who you already are — and builds from there.

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.
