Best Story

How I turned my small service to a few clients into IP that I licensed and generated a 20+M company.

Origin Story

"What do you want?", asked my boss, the person I had been working for the past 2 years. A simple question, but one that threw me overboard. My throat tightened, my eyes swelled up, and a big, sad tear rolled down my check. A question that completely halted me from uttering a word and any chance to effectively negotiate my position in the company. I had no clue what I wanted. At the time, I don’t think I could have even answered what I was good at, if anything. This was the moment when everything stopped, and I realized that there was nothing I could do to improve my work situation if I didn’t first answer that question. What happened next unlocked a journey that, back then, I could have only dreamt of. Four months after that meeting, I was sitting in a training room beginning my coaching certification process, and a year later, I opened my coaching practice, Masters in Clarity. I now have a thriving business with hundreds of clients, an amazing supportive team, and I have been blessed to be able to allow my husband to fulfill his dream of retiring from his corporate job to become a high school teacher.
