I’ve always been fascinated by human potential; what it means not only to grow into our fullest selves, but also to transcend the self in service of something larger. That curiosity has shaped my researched and writing on self-actualization and ultimately inspired me to create a personal development framework, Everyday Transcendence. It reflects both my professional work as a coach and consultant and my belief that true fulfillment is most accessible when we are able bridge inner growth with outer contribution.
Everyday Transcendence is a compass for those who want to live with both depth and direction. At its core, it’s about discovering what lights you up, honoring your values, and turning that energy into purposeful contributions that matter; doing more of what feels most aligned and alive. Through small, intentional steps, you can move from untapped potential into a life that feels connected, fulfilling, and meaningful … for yourself and for the world around you.:
Coaching → One-on-one support to rediscover your spark and step into full expression of self
Workshops & Courses → Interactive experiences to fuel growth and purpose
Consulting & Facilitation → Guiding groups and organizations toward alignment with what really matters
Get Lit Card Deck → Serendipitous and spontaneous prompts to reignite your spark anytime, anywhere
