About
Come Back to Yourself. It's Time.
Four weeks into maternity leave, I was fired from my dream job in the film industry.
I had spent 18 years working my way up in a high-demand career — only to be fired, after having my second child, because I “wasn’t available enough.” I worked remotely, 4 days after coming home from the hospital, 4 weeks post-C-section, part-time. Still, that wasn’t good enough.
That moment cracked something open inside me. It wasn’t just about the job. It broke something deeper – my identity.
Years later, I found myself a mother of 2 littles, no job prospects, ugly crying on the kitchen floor, untethered from the version of me I had spent my whole life crafting.
That moment could’ve ended me.
Instead, it became the beginning.
I decided to come back to me.
Step by messy step, I began a return:
To my identity.
To my values.
To a version of success that included me, not just what I could produce for others.
My Return Journey
(because the return is never one moment – it’s a path.)
- May 2016: Fired for taking maternity leave
- 2017-2021: Rebuilt as a financial advisor, discovered a deeper calling
- 2019: Grief cracked me open. A Tony Robbins event helped me pull myself back together.
- 2023: Left financial services to go all-in on coaching and community
- Now: Founder of Mariposa Mastermind, guiding women home to themselves
The Work I Do
My life’s work is about return.
Coming back to who you were before the world told you who to be.
Back to your voice.
Back to your clarity.
Back to you.
But this isn’t just personal.
Because when women disappear inside systems that were never designed for them — organizations lose leaders. I spent 18 years in high-pressure production environments and 6 years advising clients on financial performance and risk. I know what it feels like to operate under pressure — and what it costs when emotional capacity is ignored.
I work at two levels:
• Supporting ambitious women reclaiming clarity and confidence
• Partnering with growing companies that see burnout show up in retention, engagement, and leadership fatigue — and want to address it before they lose great people.
Through keynotes, and workshops, I help teams see what’s really driving burnout — and what high-capacity women need in order to stay and lead.
How I Partner With Organizations
Keynotes & Workshops
Practical sessions for growing teams navigating performance pressure, retention challenges, and leadership fatigue — with clear next steps leaders can implement immediately.
Consulting & Advisory
For companies that care about retention, leadership depth, and not running their best people into the ground in the name of growth.
The Values We Live By
We don’t just talk the talk here. We also walk the walk.
At Mariposa, we’re building what we wish existed:
- 30-35 hour workweeks
- Flexible schedules
- Permission to rest without guilt
We create high-quality programs and experiences – without burnout baked in.
Because when women are supported, teams stabilize, performance improves, and everyone wins.

We Give Back - Because We're All Connected
Strong women build strong businesses.
And strong businesses should help build stronger communities.
That’s why a portion of every Mariposa Mastermind purchase goes to our companies Keystone Projects—initiatives focused on environmental restoration and sustainability.
Right now, we’re proud to support TreePeople, a nonprofit based in Los Angeles working on urban reforestation, school-based eco-education, and sustainable city planning.
When you work with us, the impact goes beyond the contract.
You’re helping build a more balanced, more just, and more sustainable future—for all of us.
