Dream Work Life - 2026 Edition
A six-week group program to redesign the way you work and who you are at work from the inside out.
Start 2026 with clarity, alignment, and intention. This is your year to stop spinning and begin redesigning a work life that truly reflects your values, skills, and ambition.
Create a life rooted in joy, worth, and impact.
2026 is the Year of Redesign
The collective narrative is shifting toward reinvention, reintegration, and alignment. For leaders feeling stuck, burned out, or misaligned, this is the moment to reset and to define your next chapter with intention and confidence.
Dream Work Life is the course to help you do just that: to take the internal and external steps needed to design your work and your impact from the inside out.
This course is not just about surviving the work world, it's about shaping it on your terms. You’ll gain:
More clarity about what you truly want and why.
More alignment between your values, skills, and next steps.
A renewed relationship with ambition.
A grounded, sovereign definition of success.
A plan for a work life that reflects your values and needs.
An inner compass for 2026 and beyond.
What You’ll Walk Away With
The Transformation
A blueprint for your next chapter.
A redesigned narrative that frees you from old scripts.
Confidence to take aligned, purposeful action.
By the end of the program, you won’t just know what you want, you’ll have the clarity, framework, and momentum to redesign your work life from the inside out.
"This class has been groundbreaking. It helped me make such profound shifts I didn't know I needed. Thank you."
- Anna, Media Industry Leader
Over my career, I’ve guided hundreds of leaders to gain clarity, align their work with their values, and take purposeful action. Dream Work Life 2026 builds on that experience, giving you the tools to redesign your own work life for this pivotal year.
Why I Created This Program
25% of the people I work with ask for more money or bigger titles
30% leave their current role within a year
More than 7 women have launched new businesses
More than 20 visionaries are now writing their manuscripts
Too many leaders reach out to me sharing their work life hasn’t lived up to their expectations.
It’s an important part of who they are, and the mark they want to leave on the world, but they find themselves under-excited by their current role and wondering how they ended up in a career that just doesn’t excite them or in a career that has overwhelmed their whole life.
After spending the last 5 years interviewing thousands of leaders, I know without a doubt that being in a community fast tracks your progress.
That’s why I designed this community-focused mentorship program.
Who This Is For
This program is for people who want to change their relationship with work:
Do you feel stuck or misaligned in your current role?
Want to redefine success on your own terms?
Do you feel the promises that were touted when you were hired haven’t materialized?
Do you feel burned out, with a boss who doesn’t see you, but scared to look for a new job in this economy?
Maybe the whole career you created just isn't it and you need to explore a pivot:
You find yourself wondering how you got here. 5, 7, 10, or (like me) 20 years into a career craving a life with greater freedom and purpose.
You know you want to jump careers but you are so afraid of letting go of the safety, the security, and the routine.
Or, you have your next business idea– the manuscript you want to write, or the business you want to launch, but you need a push to make it happen.
This course is designed for leaders, high achievers, and mid-career professionals. For people who feel stuck and need to be reminded they have all they need to start chasing their dreams – not some day, TODAY.
And what better time that the start of a new year.
You just don't know how to get from here to there. I can help.
Who Am I?
I am someone who has been there
I rose quickly to a big seat in leadership. I spent 20 years navigating the rise, becoming a Partner at Deloitte, only to find myself sick and burned out. I took an 8 month LOA which helped me see it was time to leave and heal. I left the partnership and everything that came with it behind to write a book and launch a community for women. Now I sit on Boards, do research via my think tank, teach, and consult to some of the most iconic companies on the planet.
I walked away from a career I thought I wanted, to pivot and create one I only dreamed of, and I am not done yet.
I am ready to bring my unique gifts of research, coaching, and pattern spotting to my next group of leaders.
