ABOUT:

I have been asking questions about life since I was a young girl. What started as a childhood pastime that drove my parents crazy, enlisting my hairbrush and stuffed animals, graduated into a long and fruitful television and radio career as an interviewer, storyteller and podcast host. I have asked questions of hundreds of Hollywood celebs, rock stars, personal growth luminaries, business icons, bestselling authors, and perhaps most inspiring, everyday people with everyday problems. While I have often been told how much I make people think and lend a new perspective, I have also been gifted with 35 years of answers, insights and pearls of wisdom in return. 

My biggest passion is sharing this collective wisdom with people in my own life: friends, strangers, fellow travelers, airport encounters, and street corner exchanges. Sitting on couches with tea, across dinner tables daring to broach more personal topics many of us don’t feel we have a place to discuss in the course of our day. I am excited to share my style of InnerViewing with you to help you gain new perspectives, find solutions, and discover more inner peace and self-awareness.
