Female Athlete Keynote Speaker on Resilience & Peak Performance
Helping leaders, teams, and high performers unlock discipline, confidence, and innovation.
Ouch. I didn't see that coming 😅
(And chances are… you didn’t either, 0/10 recommend..)
Maybe you haven’t torn your ACL on national television like I did, but chances are, life has blindsided you with a moment that changed everything.
A setback.
A pivot.
Trying something new.
A hallway you didn’t plan to walk down.
Those moments demand one thing from you: the courage to take the FIRST step before you feel ready.
And that’s exactly where most people hesitate. They freeze. They overthink. They wait.
And the thing they know they need to do… never actually gets done.
My mission is to help you not only take that first step, but see it all the way through.
Whether it’s getting your first pull-up, sending the first cold email, coming back from a setback, or doing something you’ve never done before, I’m here to help you redefine what’s possible and revolutionize the way you think, move, and lead.
What do I do?
I help leaders, teams, and high achievers stop freezing in uncertainty and take the first bold step toward something they’ve been avoiding then follow through until they succeed.
That “thing” might be:
-
Leading through change
-
Coming back from a setback
-
Taking a risk they’ve been overthinking
-
Doing something they’ve never done before
- Doing their FIRST Pull-up
- Optimizing their Health (Fitness + Nutrition) that sustainable and lasts
How do I do it?
I use keynote speaking, coaching, and athlete-tested resilience strategies to show people how to move before they feel ready, stay consistent when it gets uncomfortable, and build conviction so confidence actually shows up.
I’ve helped thousands of people do this whether it’s getting their first pull-up, stepping into leadership, rebuilding after failure, or making a move they didn’t think they were capable of.
Why it matters
Because most people aren’t stuck, they’re just waiting.
Waiting for certainty.
Waiting for perfection.
Waiting for confidence.
I help people stop living by default and start leading by design so “impossible” becomes the place they begin, not the excuse they stay stuck in.
