Taking the Road is taking ownership of your path, carving out a business you love.

And
 it's building strategies and marketing that help maintain your sanity along the way.

my (mostly) healthy obsessions:

But I’m a Midwestern millennial. I grew up believing success lay in a traditional career. So, I got a Master’s in Journalism, leveraged that into a job in corporate marketing and began my climb.

I spent 15 years building strategies, content, and programs. I wrote copy, organized events, managed creative, styled photos, ran social. I achieved (and learned a boatload).

Then we lost our second-born son in 2018.

On the other side of that grief, I realized my path had become... well, meh. I was putting all my energy into a machine instead of myself. And I owed it to him not to settle.

So, I started a new journey - one that was about me following my passions and taking the road, not the other way around.

Now I get to share all that billion-dollar-business knowledge with brilliant entrepreneurs like you.

From my cringe high school journal entries to choreographing dance routines to the novel I finally got around to writing. 

I’ve always been a storyteller. 

because what we do for money is rarely as important as what we do for fun and love and all the rest.

A few stops on my journey thus far
