Years ago, I met Leslie at an event — before I’d ever started public speaking.

Back then, I just wanted to connect with other women doing meaningful work and trying to stay grounded in the process.

Today, I stood on stage at the Women’s Conference, sharing the science of happiness and how to go from surviving → thriving. 🌿

These ladies blew me away with their energy and presence. 🤎

I left with a plant, a pot, and a heart full of gratitude — and I can’t wait to see what grows. 🌸

Thank you for the inspo today! 🤎

Today’s prep for the IDEX Fire & Safety Women’s Leadership Panel has me pumped to chat about the Beyond the Pipeline book (https://a.co/d/aMlwtZ8) - and reminded me just how needed this conversation is.

The next time I’m on Teams, though, I’ll have two fewer hands, two fewer feet, and one less diaper to change. 😉

Just finished Happiness 101 (https://a.co/d/h1JNP6i) by Dr. Tim Bono and couldn’t recommend it more for anyone curious about what positive psychology truly is, what it isn’t, and the simple, free tools you can start using today to boost happiness.

This isn’t a “just trust me, it works” kind of book—it’s one that grounds every recommendation in the research behind it. A refreshing reminder that happiness isn’t luck, it’s a skill we can practice and strengthen.

If you’re looking for practical, science-backed ways to live with more intention and joy, this book is a must-read. 🤎

Remember back in August when I said I’d be sharing homework from my speaker workshop “over the next few weeks”? Yeah… about that. 😂

Here’s my mission statement — clean, simple, and complete.

If you’re looking for a speaker for your next conference and this mission resonates, I’d love to join you. Reach out anytime.

Thriving > Surviving. Always. 🤎

I just opened my Beyond the Pipeline hardcopy (!!!) and re-reading Cassie Leonard’s introduction took me right back to Ferrera’s Barbie speech — a true rallying cry, but this time for women in STEMM.

This intro + these stories + hearing women at our launch happy hour who shared how much this book is needed… all remind me exactly why we’re here.

“You are worthy of working in an environment where you are seen, supported, and respected. Don’t accept anything less.”
— Cassie Leonard ()

🤎Let’s spread this rallying cry. I have two copies of our international best seller (!!!) I’d love to get into the hands of people who will read them, reflect on them, and keep the conversation going. If this resonates, comment or send me a message.

Proud of these ladies, proud of the women before us, proud of the little girls who will do mind blowing things in the future, proud of the allies, proud to have wrote this chapter with my daughter in my belly.

We had a special guest at our quarterly goals review. 🤎

Earlier this year I shared how we use to guide our yearly planning—with a few tweaks of our own. And now I’m putting it all into one place:

📝 A FREE Couples Goal Setting PDF with our full outline, quarterly check-in questions, and templates for documenting everything—from big-picture priorities to the tiny habits that move them forward.

It’s not ready just yet, but if it’s something you’d like, drop a 🤎 or “PDF please” and I’ll make sure you’re the first to get it.

Writing this chapter came at a time when I needed the positive psychology reframe the most.

In “From Surviving to Thriving,” I share how the THRIVE framework—originally created to support moms in labor—translates beautifully into helping women thrive in STEMM careers. Because thriving isn’t just about powering through… it’s about optimizing our:
💡 Thoughts
🔁 Habits
❤️ Relationships
🧭 Instincts
💫 Values
🌿 Environments

On August 12th, I’ll be sharing more about this framework and how to bring it to life in your own work and world.

Now excuse me while I go reread this chapter- I have a feeling I could use the reminder as I navigate this maternity leave. 😂

24/06/2025

If it’s been quiet over here, it’s because life has been… full. Beautifully, chaotically full.

There’s been so much joy and so many baby snuggles.

But also: leaking through my jammies, multiple loads of laundry on the floor, and re-learning all things newborn.

In a world of AI and influencing, I’m here for the movement.

Not all perfection—just love, mess, gratitude, and remembering that thriving > surviving.

God bless maternity leave.
God bless my husband.
God bless the people who check in, drop in, and surround us with so much love.

I’m looking forward to sharing more soon.
But for now… I’m right here. 🤎
