What does it mean to be bolder?
Being bolder means doing it anyways, even when it’s scary and intimidating. It’s holding tighter to the belief that I’m capable and worthy, than the inside voice that’s pointing out the “risks” and what’s at stake if I fail. When I’m bold, I trust my intuition, I imagine what’s possible, and I take the actions that feel right for me.
What makes you bold?
I’m a risk taker, I’m self-aware, and I pursue honest, raw feedback in the name of growth and development.
What’s your favorite word and why?
SUDDENLY! I love the anticipation of this word, the hyper focus on “now” and “what’s next”, the potential for something new and exciting. I love reading it in book, I love experiencing it in life, because it elicits both the present and the future at the same time.
What skills do you bring to The Bolder Company?
I’m a big picture, forward thinker. I love the long-game and the incremental steps to achieving WILD success. My background is applied behavior analysis, behavior change, and influential leadership both as an employee and now as a coach and consultant.
What’s your customer experience super-power?
I want your goal for you as much you want your goal for you. I get a high off other people’s successes and achievements. I love creating space for people to experience an ah-ha moment, to feel seen and supported in what they want to accomplish.
