Experiences
- Creator and coach at Above the Veil MethodHelp adult children rewrite their childhood programming
I once thought my pain was a personal flaw. It was a survival pattern, and that insight became my method.
- MotherhoodBecame a young mother and stepped into my mom's role
After my divorce I retraced my steps so I could attune to my children and take recovery further than my mom did.
- Learn to Love the SelfFound I didn't love myself, then created a course on it
In my inner child healing I saw I didn't know how to love myself. Learn to Love the Self teaches that in four parts.
- Early lifeGrew up believing my parents knew everything
Only well into my 30s did I see they were controlling, highly critical and didn't know how to be happy.
- Creator at 12 Week Breakthrough Coaching ProgramTurned my research and life story into a 12-week program
Daily journaling prompts, videos and meditations, plus weekly livestreams. I also trained staff to coach it.
- Life Coach at YouTube channelBuilt a YouTube community of over 726,000 people
Many viewers found me through videos like 5 Secrets To Disarm a Narcissist, then joined my coaching program.
- BooksWrote eight books, including bestsellers on codependency
The Road Back To Me is the one readers mention most, often as their first step before a course.
- HealingStopped pretending I was fine and had no needs
Learning to stop running from shame was the hardest part. I broke and fell back into place at the same time.
