This Newsletter Is Your Weekly Nudge

Ever feel like you’re this close to making that big move in your career or creative life—but something keeps holding you back?

You’re not alone. And more importantly, you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.

Introducing the BRAVER MOVES Newsletter

Each Monday, I deliver a “professional nudge” straight to your inbox—a quick shot of inspiration, practical advice, and actionable strategies to help you overcome what’s holding you back.

What you’ll get:

Real talk about the fears we all face (perfectionism, imposter syndrome, comparison traps, and more)

Practical exercises you can implement in 5-10 minutes

Stories that moved me and might just move you too

Downloadable quotes and resources to keep you inspired throughout your week

Why It Matters

The world needs your voice, your ideas, your contributions—but they’ll stay stuck if you can’t move past what’s blocking you.

The difference between where you are and where you want to be isn’t just about skill or knowledge. It’s about overcoming the internal barriers that keep you playing small.

Each week, I help thousands of professionals, creatives, and leaders take one step beyond their comfort zone. And I’d love to help you too.
