Author. Creator of Reclaim™. Survivor. Professional Uplifter.
Whether she’s empowering kids and teens with the messages in her books, showing adults a way back to themselves after abuse with Reclaim, or rubbing her fingerprints off on the pavement with sidewalk chalk, it’s all done with one thing in mind;
Uplifting Others.
i created an app
to help people reclaim their lives!
After surviving 20 years of narcissistic abuse, parental alienation, nearly a decade of post-separation abuse, I didn't just rebuild my life. I reclaimed it. I climbed out of debt, began building real wealth, reclaimed my health, rediscovered my confidence, and found true love. Reclaim™ brings together the tools, strategies, and practices that helped me do it... so others can begin rebuilding their lives, too.
i write books
that help kids & teens thrive!
I’ve been through hell and back many times. So have my kids. Through that I’ve written and published 10 therapist recommended books for kids and teens. All were written to uplift and empower my own kids through our struggles. And now parents, teachers and therapists all over the world are using them as a resource.
I SHARE MY BOOKS & STORY
at events, schools and even on TV!
You can hire me to speak anywhere inspiration, healing, or hope is needed—from libaries to classrooms to conferences. My goal is always the same... uplifting through story.
i am
a badass
I’ve beaten cancer FOUR TIMES and all I got was this mug. 🤣. But what I also got was a crash course in how to keep your mind right and be positive. I've used this power to heal my body, find true love and build wealth from nothing. I now offer access to Reclaim where you can learn this badassery for yourself!
i love
taking photos
I’ve been a professional photographer for over 15 years. I’ve worked with models, celebrities and high-profile companies; but wanna know my favorite thing to shoot? Real people. And food. 🤣.
i often rub my fingerprints off
doing chalk art
I lost my photography business overnight when COVID hit and started drawing with chalk in my driveway. Ever since, I’ve been drawing with chalk and making super satisfying time lapses of my work.
i am my own
superhero
I genuinely believe we are all superheroes with the power to make positive change in this world. Uplifting is my superpower. Also, devouring Sour Cream and Onion Pringles at an alarming rate is my superpower (that I wish I didn't have...)
a few of my favorite things
laughing, my family, and hurricane tots
Also puns. No matter what we work on together you can rest assured, those mom jokes will be comin’ in clutch. (insert eye rolls from my teenagers for my use of the word clutch)
i once stood in an
elephant fart
It blew my hair back and I got dust in my eye. Elephant butt dust. #TRUESTORY
