I’ve spent most of my career helping people make sense of things that feel overwhelming.
Sometimes that was information. Sometimes it was homes and routines. And sometimes it was life falling apart a little and needing to be put back together carefully.
I didn’t wake up one day and decide to do this work. I grew into it.
I went through my own divorce in my mid-40s at a stage of life when you think you should have things figured out, not be starting over. It wasn’t just the end of a marriage. It was the emotional weight, the practical decisions, the mental load of keeping everything going while quietly trying to figure out what came next.
That experience changed how I look at overwhelm.
What I learned, both personally and professionally, is this. Most women aren’t struggling because they’re incapable or disorganized. They’re struggling because they’re carrying too much at once.
I have spent over 20 years working in Information Management, including more than 15 years in government, mostly acting in senior management positions. Structure matters. Privacy matters. Decisions matters. I'm constantly helping people sort through complexity, competing priorities, and too much information.
I also worked as a professional organizer, which taught me something important. Clutter is rarely just about stuff. It’s about decision fatigue, emotional weight, and not having the energy to deal with one more thing.
Eventually, all of that came together.
Today, I help women reduce the mental load, whether that’s during a major life transition like divorce or in the everyday overwhelm of work, home, responsibilities, and too many open tabs mentally and digitally.
Sometimes that looks like divorce support through my Through the Storm work. Sometimes it looks like helping someone think through a decision they’ve been stuck on for weeks.
And sometimes it looks like using modern tools, including AI, as a way to make life easier, not more complicated.
Not in a techy way.
Not in a hustle harder way.
In a this actually helps way.
I don’t believe in fixing people.
I don’t believe in perfect systems.
And I don’t believe most women need more advice.
What they usually need is clarity, steadiness, and a way to offload some of what they’ve been carrying alone.
That’s how I work.
If you’re here because something feels heavy, stuck, or louder than it needs to be, you don’t have to have it all figured out yet.
You’re welcome to explore, take what’s useful, and see what fits where you are right now.
