50 REASONS TO WORK WITH ME
-
​I help people unlock the most powerful, self-led version of themselves and I do it through systems, clarity, and confident execution.
-
I don’t teach theory. Everything I teach is something I have built, implemented, or refined in real businesses.
-
I model what I expect from you. I don’t ask clients to take actions I don’t personally take in my own business.
-
I’ve worked with hundreds of founders, operators, and creatives across the non-alc, kava, wellness, and service industries and I meet each person where they are.
-
My programs have been reviewed by certified, registered, practicing therapists to ensure they are safe, ethical, and supportive.
-
Client confidentiality is non-negotiable for me. I protect client information because I know firsthand what it feels like when a professional breaks that trust.
-
If you come to me with a concern, feedback, or frustration, I don’t get defensive, I get to work fixing it.
-
I’m not here to “sell.” I’m here to sort. If my offer isn’t the right fit, I will be the first to tell you.
-
I have been professionally coaching and consulting since 2014 and have worked in operations-intensive environments since 2011. I understand every layer of the business stack.
-
I’m self-made. Every part of this company was bootstrapped, built, and funded by me. I know what it takes to build from the ground up.
-
Before consulting, I ran operations inside kava bars, managed teams, built systems, and handled the work most founders avoid, so I teach from experience, not observation.
-
I’ve traveled and built businesses alone AND with my husband. I know how to empower people to feel safe, prepared, and confident navigating the world and their business decisions, regardless of circumstance.
-
I am a lifelong student. I stay ahead of industry trends, regulations, systems, and marketing so my clients always get the most current and relevant strategy.
-
My degree in mathematics and anthropology trained me to think critically, pattern-match, and understand human behavior, which is the foundation of great business strategy.
-
My combined background in research labs, FDA-adjacent work, hospitality, performance, and operations gives me a rare, multidimensional perspective.
-
I’ve been through years of therapy. I believe emotional intelligence is a business skill, and I bring that to every client interaction.
-
I quit smoking and drinking after a decade of addiction. I understand transformation, discipline, and rebuilding your identity firsthand.
-
People consistently tell me they feel safe talking to me, even about the “messy middle” parts of their life or business.
-
I never double down on something that isn’t working. We adjust fast, strategically, and without shame.
-
I don’t talk about problems unless I’m also offering solutions. I don’t leave people in the “stuck.”
-
I created the Functional Mixology Method, Bula Boss, Effortless Operations, Department-in-a-Box, and multiple industry frameworks that founders now rely on.
-
I treat client businesses with the same level of care, curiosity, and detail that I treat my own.
-
I’ve built full operations ecosystems from scratch: hiring systems, SOPs, manuals, dashboards, training programs, menu systems, events departments, and more.
-
My attendance record as a contractor and consultant is exceptional. If you’re on my calendar, I show up prepared and early.
-
I believe in the power of journaling, clarity work, and intentional strategy. And yes, almost everything I write down eventually happens.
-
I understand the non-alc, kava, and botanical beverage markets at a level very few consultants do from supply chain to legal considerations to menu strategy.
-
I’m a systems thinker. My brain naturally organizes chaos into clarity, and operations is my version of meditation.
-
I know how to teach complex information in a way that feels simple, grounded, and actionable.
-
I will rewrite, re-explain, or re-frame anything as many times as needed until it clicks for you.
-
I’ve worked jobs I loved and jobs I hated so I understand burnout, career transitions, and the identity shifts required to grow.
-
I believe long-term success requires short-term sacrifice, and I help clients navigate the discomfort of growth with compassion and strategy.
-
I have failed, fumbled, pivoted, rebuilt, and reinvented myself many times and I’m not shy about discussing it.
-
I teach clients how to access the “zoomed-out” perspective, not just the daily to-do list. That’s where clarity happens.
-
Boundaries matter to me, because they protect my clients and my quality of work. My policies exist for a reason and it is usually because something wild happened in the past.
-
Neurodivergence shapes how I build systems; everything I create is designed to reduce friction, simplify decisions, and avoid overwhelm.
-
I believe nothing is random. If you’re facing a decision or challenge, there’s wisdom in it and I help you find that.
-
I love organization more than most people love brunch. I genuinely ENJOY creating structure that makes people’s lives easier.
-
I understand the legal and operational risks in this industry and help clients avoid expensive mistakes before they happen.
-
I adapt quickly. If the situation changes, regulation shifts, or a new challenge emerges, I pivot instantly.
-
I build businesses to be sustainable, delegatable, and scalable not dependent on your adrenaline or presence.
-
I treat every client relationship as a partnership, not a hierarchy. We build together.
-
I keep my word. If I say I’m delivering something, you get it on time and done right.
-
I have mastered the art of “seeing the whole system” when most people are stuck in one piece of it.

I am excellent at identifying root problems fast which saves clients months or years of wasted effort.
-
I know what it feels like to be undervalued, underpaid, or overlooked at work and I care deeply about helping others break out of that cycle.

I redefine professionalism. It’s not about clothes or optics. It’s about care, communication, and follow-through.
-
I build tools, templates, dashboards, and systems that clients use for years, not weeks.
-
I find joy in helping people become more confident, self-sufficient, and aligned with their purpose.
-
I’m relentless. When I believe in your vision, I go to bat for it; strategy-first and outcome-focused.
-
If this list resonates with you, we’re going to work incredibly well together. If it doesn’t, I’m not your person and that’s a good thing.
