I built my career as a Registered Nurse in intermediate care, working in environments where every decision mattered. I saw firsthand what happens when systems are pushed beyond their capacity. The most profound critical care I ever experienced, though, wasn’t at a hospital bedside. It was the moment I realized I had spent years taking care of everyone else while neglecting myself.

Without realizing it, I had become what I now call a “public utility.” I was accessible to everyone, powering everyone else’s world while my own system was in total blackout. I equated sacrifice with love and measured my worth by how “useful” I could be, until I barely recognized myself outside of what I did for others.

I wrote Radical Rebirth as a result of lived experience and a desire to create an honest space for women who find themselves in that same place. Now, my work is centered around helping women unlearn the roles they were drafted into and reconnect with who they are underneath survival, obligation, and self-abandonment. If that’s you, you’re exactly who this work is for.
