Allow me to introduce two of my four dogs, Loki and Finn. We are so glad you are here! 

I am a 30-something businesswoman currently living in east Tennessee. I have moved every 2-4 years my entire life, first with my military family and then with my own career. I have reinvented myself many times over the years, whether due to moves, breakups, career changes, or new interests. In 2018, I settled down long enough to buy my first home! I have happily collected dogs ever since, and am pursuing my biggest goals to-date. I am on track to complete a PhD and an Ironman this year!  

I started this blog as a creative outlet to share lessons learned though my life as a chronic goal-setter. Failures and achievements alike have shaped my life in ultimately positive ways. I am proud to have successfully grown my career to 6-figures, quit smoking, paid off $12,000 in credit card debt, gotten a multi-engine pilot’s license, lost weight, gotten an MBA, managed depression, completed a half-Ironman, and started a new life by myself (multiple times). EACH of those goals were achieved after false starts, road bumps, and at times devastating – but temporary – failures. 

I truly believe anyone can achieve their goals if they are stubborn enough, believe in themselves, and plan sufficiently. I hope that the stories and tools (tips! and tricks! – for you Schitt’s Creek fans) shared here will inspire and help others to improve themselves, their careers, and their lives in whatever direction they dream to go.
