I’ve spent more than two decades helping leaders navigate high-stakes moments. Then I found myself standing at the edge of my own.
I built a career advising startup founders, CEOs, and leaders at companies like Microsoft and SAP. Along the way, I built my own business while raising a family, created Hip Travel Mama, partnered with brands including Disney, Expedia, and Alaska Airlines, and became a travel expert on live TV, including TODAY.
Then I stood outside my daughter’s dorm room after helping her move in and realized something: she was beginning her next adventure. And so was I.
I didn’t have a map for what came next. So I got curious.
I started interviewing leaders, founders, and creatives who had launched, pivoted, reinvented, and started again. I wanted to know what helped them move forward when change disrupted the plan.
Those conversations became the research behind my book, All Who Wander, and the Choose Adventure Mindset™, my five-step framework for turning that mindset into action.
Today, I bring everything I’ve learned from both sides of change to my work with leaders and teams. Because after more than two decades in the room when the stakes are high, I’ve learned this:
Some of our biggest opportunities for growth start with a choice. Choose adventure.
