Wanting "more" doesn't make you ungrateful.
Hey Reader,
You’ve got the good job, the benefits, and even the salary you've dreamed about when you were graduating from college.
So why does it feel like you’re still stuck?
For a lot of high-achieving women, this is where guilt creeps in.​
The guilt of wanting more—more freedom, more income, more impact—when technically, nothing is “wrong.”
You're quietly telling yourself stuff like:
- I should just be grateful.
- Other people would kill to have this job.
- Now’s not the time to take a risk.”
But what if that guilt is the very thing keeping you underpaid, overextended, and unfulfilled?
Reader, you can be grateful for your job and still want more from your life.
It's not selfish or ungrateful to desire flexibility and ownership.
In fact, I've been right where you are.
And that’s exactly why I created the LEVERAGE Challenge. It's a three day private coaching space I created to give you a safe, strategic way to explore consulting without quitting your job or blowing up your career.
You don’t hate your job. You just know you’re built for more and that's perfectly normal.​
But more feels risky. Unclear. Like it demands time and energy you simply don’t have.
But you don’t have to be an influencer, a full-time entrepreneur, or a sales guru to get paid for your expertise.
You just need a clear, low-risk way to package what you already know—and offer it to the right people.
Strategy Snapshot:
đź’¬ JOURNAL EXERCISE: If you weren't worried about looking silly or ungrateful, what would you give yourself permission to built?
- What kind of schedule would you have?
- What kind of clients would you work with?
- How much money would you make each month?
- What kind of work would you do?

Now imagine having a step-by-step plan to build an income stream around that vision—using skills you already have and connections you already know.
That’s what we’re walking through in the LEVERAGE Challenge.​
Let’s replace guilt with clarity—and give you the power to decide what’s next.
Even if no one else understands yet.
