Hi, I’m Emily!

I help women like you create a life they Love living!

My Story Begins...

… with my decision to attend the U.S. Naval Academy, which ended up determining the course of 38 years of my life. And in retrospect, I’m not sure that decision was based on MY inner truth.

For the longest time, I felt the need to please others and became a chameleon, adapting and acting the way I felt was expected of me.

At work, I was a confident overachiever.

But my personal life was a whole different story. At age 28 I was married to a man who was verbally abusive and it took a while until I finally found the courage to leave him, right when the abuse was extending to my children.

The years passed...

…and as a single parent, I focused on achieving, moving ahead, yet, no matter how much I accomplished, I never felt good enough. I even got remarried (and re-divorced), without recognizing that chameleon Emily was the one making the calls again and the real me was no where to be seen.

In 2014, a friend invited me to the World Domination Summit...

… focused on how to live a remarkable life in a conventional world. An idea that I could create a life that I loved was planted in my mind, but I wasn’t ready to take action, yet.

It took three years, a promotion, and deep sense of unfulfillment to finally decide it was time to let go. Despite what everyone was telling me I needed to do, I retired and created the Onward Podcast.

But as I was about to design a new life on my terms,

my children’s father was diagnosed with cancer, and unfortunately ended up losing his battle. After I’d put everything on hold for my children, and experienced a rollercoaster of emotions, I decided it was time for me to commit.

For the first time in my life I put myself first.

I’m not going to lie, I had some trouble slowing down and quieting my mind (quite frankly, I still do sometimes). I didn’t know what to do with my new found freedom. It felt good being released from having to wear a suit & heels, work long hours, and travel several times a month, but I didn’t know myself. I hadn’t made time to dream.

I started doing something I’d never done before: the inner work.

As a result, I learned the most valuable tool: How to listen to the guidance of my Inner Voice, my Higher Self, my Authentic Self, to create a roadmap for an authentic and fulfilling life. And I’m still on my journey but now I’m living a life I‘d never imagined before.
