You can have success without all the sacrifices.  That’s our motto at Modern Yinster and my personal motto when it comes to individuals and organizations.  When we raise our happiness factor we are more engaged in life.  We communicate better.  Our relationships are strengthened, including the one with ourselves, and we feel and perform better.  But this is not achieved by a life of sustained happiness, it is a continuous work in progress.  I work with leaders, teams, individuals and organizations to create more engagement through relatable mindfulness and wellbeing approaches.  

In my work with Modern Yinster, I work with companies to reach their organizational goals by enhancing the change and adaptability skills of their teams.  We deliver a blend of accessible science based strategies and holistic experiences to employees and leaders.  

We also work with leaders to create an enhanced mindfulness approach that supports their inclusion and equity policies in a virtual and hybrid workspace. 

I am grateful to have been afforded the opportunity to deliver thousands of workshops, classes and speaking engagements to share my mission to change the status quo of well-being from anxiety and dis-ease to positivity and hope that work-life balance is a lifestyle that can be achieved with the right approaches.  

I have a passion for removing the “woo-woo” from holistic approaches and blending them with research-based behavior changing systems that are relatable for leaders, employees, organizations and entrepreneurs. 

I am always interested in connecting with potential collaborators, aligned thought leaders and new friends to discuss all things well-being in the workplace, Yoga, the joys of teenage kids and the amazing life of a bird enthusiast!

Product Development Diva and Community Connector

I believe that finding confidence in ourselves is one of the biggest steps in establishing a better well-being.  I  focus on using self-care rituals to achieve this. 

I am an experienced mentor and coach that focuses on each client as an individual. I frequently facilitate workshops that are action oriented and results driven. 

My role at Modern Yinster is to create products and programs that help individuals and leaders create sustainable and customized self care solutions that result in an enhanced self awareness and adaptability.  

As the Community Connector, I delight in delivering content that is relevant and motivating.  I also get to connect members to each other and watch friendships blossom on the foundation of respect, education and support.
