Tesla leader turned professional speaker with a mission to help professionals boost performance without burning out.
From Crisis to Clarity
On June 22nd, 2014, my father’s sudden passing shook me. At the time, I was stuck, unfulfilled in my job, drowning in debt, in an unhappy marriage, and disconnected from my two-year-old daughter. This loss pushed me to seek more, leading me to books, mentors, workshops, and bold life changes. I left my finance job, ended my marriage, and joined Tesla, where I earned six promotions in four years.
The Breakthrough Moment
On a flight from Newark to Orlando, everything clicked. The night before, I watched I Am Not Your Guru by Tony Robbins, feeling motivated. The next day, a spiritual teacher urged me to “let go” and be “empty.” It seemed like opposite advice, until it hit me. True success isn’t about me, but about serving others. When I stay present, engaged, and focused on giving, I perform at my best without burnout.
Building a Legacy
At Tesla, I led a national training program coaching 1,000+ employees across the U.S. and Canada. In 2019, I launched The Conscious Professional to help leaders achieve peak performance without burnout. Since then, I’ve worked with global brands, been featured in Forbes Founder, and appeared on top podcasts. Today, I host the top-rated podcast “Unstuck” and travel the world as a keynote speaker and coach, helping leaders thrive in uncertain, ever-changing environments.
