Hi! I’m Erica.

I’m a licensed therapist, corporate dropout, and coach who believes in doing it scared

I’m on a mission to help you find success and fulfillment

I get it because I’ve been there.

I love to cross things off my to-do list. I love to swoop in and get shit done and do it well (which usually means I want it done my way, obvs).

But I also know what it’s like to feel uninspired by my to-do list. To want to accomplish MORE but lack the energy to do it. To hate to ask for help while also resenting the people around you for not helping. To be caught in a loop of overthinking and confusion.

I know what it’s like to be successful but burnt out, lost, and unfulfilled.

And then I found a better way.

My clients come to me looking for real, straightforward strategies

NOT YOUR AVERAGE BACKSTORY

How’d I get here?

I was pretty sure I was going to change the world as a therapist.

But fast forward 4 years after getting my MA in Counseling Psychology - I was working as a therapist in juvenile corrections, feeling frustrated, burnt out, and well, if I was changing the world - it sure didn’t feel like it.

So I traded in my therapy couch for a cubicle in Corporate America. Almost immediately, I knew I’d made a big mistake.

Providing management consultation and trainings to industry leaders didn’t feel like enough. So I launched a private practice side-hustle in the Denver area.

Having zero business or marketing experience, the private practice grew verrrrrry slowly. But it still grew. And in 2014, my husband sat me down and told me I was working too much and I needed to choose - the therapy practice or my corporate job.

Therapist or corporate?

If my life were a movie, this would be the glorious moment where I was super brave and went all-in on myself.

That’s not what happened.

Completely overwhelmed with self-doubt, I chose my corporate job and closed down the private practice. It felt safer to bet on a CEO who didn’t know me from Adam and rolled out semi-regular layoffs but sent me a predictable paycheck every two weeks than to bet on Me.

I told myself it was okay. My job was flexible. I got to work from home and wear yoga pants all day. It let me be a mom to my three kids.

But even though I had an amazing team and supervisor who tried to support me, I still didn’t feel like I was having the impact I so desperately craved.

I was bored, frustrated, and didn’t know what to do about it.

Becoming the CEO

I found coaching purely by accident (honestly, I thought “life coaching” was a dumb, made-up thing). But stumbling across a life coaching podcast, I was struck by how useful the content was.

So I launched a coaching side-hustle (still clueless about things like marketing and thinking that selling was super gross).

But I knew I could help people and I wanted to build a business that felt like ME.

I was not an overnight success.

After fumbling around for almost a year and consuming every Freebie on the internet, I hired my own coach. And shit got real.

I went from $3000 to $300,000 in just two years. I lost the 15 pounds I’d been trying to lose for 10 years. We bought a cabin in the Colorado mountains.

And when it came time to choose - my business or my corporate job - I decided to rewrite my story. I choose to be the CEO of my life. And I went all-in on my best investment - ME.

I found the answers

It took me a long time to figure out my career.

I kept looking for the answers outside of me and never found them.

I took career assessments. I asked friends and family for advice. I tried to stay where I was and practice gratitude. Nothing helped.

It wasn’t until I learned how to:

  • Listen to myself

  • Trust myself

  • Follow my desires

  • Do it scared

  • Let it be simple

…that things fell into place.

When I released people-pleasing, perfectionism, and my fear of failure, I finally found the answers I’d been searching for.

I’m on a mission to make sure you have everything you need to change your life. You deserve freedom, happiness, and a meaningful career.

You deserve success - on your terms.
