REGION: PENNSYLVANIA, USA

I want you to know that you matter and that your life has a purpose. And I have a secret to share with you…


You can burn with a passion for life and work without burning out. Seriously, it's possible to live with more joy, meaning, and fulfillment than you ever thought possible. How do I know? Because I've been exhausted, overwhelmed, and overworked, despite doing what everyone said would bring success and happiness. I lived #hustleculture and it took my spark for a while. But then I discovered the profound impact of living with purpose. It transformed the way I view work, leadership, success, relationships, and so much more.


The concept of ikigai has become a cornerstone of the work that I do. As an ikigai coach and advisor, I help people find and activate their own reason for living. I believe this work is paramount to living a life of purpose and impact. Because when we know and pursue the things that bring us joy and meaning, we fill our cup, which then allows us to pour into others and the causes we care about. Ikigai offers ancient wisdom for a new generation.


I offer coaching, workshops, and keynotes on topic of ikigai, as well as work with leaders and teams on finding ikigai in the workplace.


A little about me...

I believe that we're all created for a purpose and mine is to SPARK the flame of purpose in others and to help women live into their limitless potential. We have one, precious life. Let's not waste it on things that don't matter, including work. Yep, I said it. Don't waste your beautiful life on things (including work) that doesn't light you up and make a difference.


For over 20 years, I've been a purpose seeker. By leveraging the best of communications, public relations, marketing, adult education, and executive leadership, I've crafted a process that helps leaders and organizations achieve greater success with significance through the power of purpose.


In 2021, fueled by my passion for entrepreneurship and empowering others, I founded Light Echo Co. to help purpose-driven leaders and organizations transform work and the workplace.


Okay... that's enough formal "stuff". I live life to its fullest and enjoy running while listening to audio books and podcasts, hiking in adventurous places, chasing after the best tacos in town, and watching football with my best friend (hubby) and our adorable woofer, Zander.
