I'm Back + An Announcement!

Hello everyone! Nice to see you (again 😊).

What if I told you that the real catalyst for change isn't a shiny new idea — but the conversations that turn those ideas into action? It's a hot take, but after coaching countless leaders, I've seen this play out over and over.

Before I get deeper into that, I have a few updates!

Back in the Spring, I intentionally entered a season of saying yes to every opportunity that came my way professionally and….you guessed it, I got bitten by the “busy” bug. Since taking a pause from posting in April, I’ve been deep in my coaching and consulting work. I’ve supported a slew of new clients, traveled, celebrated my birthday, was featured in Inc., facilitated a leadership retreat in Haiti for the Rhum Barbancourt team, and now—I’m excited to announce the launch of my new podcast.

As I mentioned earlier, ideas alone don’t change the world—conversations do. I see it every day in my coaching practice. We all have ideas about how work, life, and even relationships should work. When it all comes down to it, it’s through dialogue that we take those ideas and turn them into action, and that’s exactly what The Impactful Conversations Effect podcast is about.

I launched this podcast in partnership with my good friend and co-host Winy Bernard Bertin. We recorded this first season over the summer. We had the opportunity to talk to 5 incredible individuals, from a sustainability leader, a DEI expert, a coach that helps female athletes transition from sports to the next phase in their careers, a former nurse who uses her background in medicine as a coach, and a well-known author, journalist, and podcaster.

Throughout my career—from facilitating leadership retreats to my deep dive coaching sessions with middle managers and c-level executives—I’ve seen firsthand how one conversation can lead to real transformation. The Impactful Conversations Effect is not just another podcast—it’s a space where we go deep on the life changing conversations that led our guests to where they are today. And we have fun while doing it. Listen for insights and for some laughs too. Find us on:

If you've been here a while, you know The Operator’s Edge isn't just about updates—it’s a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to be successful in leadership today. I’m happy to be back with fresh insights and I’d love to have you along for this new chapter!
