Beautiful stories. Brave truths.
Heart in every line.

Whether we know each other through my writing, we crossed paths at a speaking event or elsewhere, welcome!

I’m the award-winning author of the Goodbye, Orchid series, a speaker, executive, and mom of twins. In my writing, you’ll find hope, purpose, and the connections that make us human. These are stories meant to stay with you—and to spark the kinds of conversations that matter.

Please explore my BOOKS, MEDIA KIT, EVENT schedule, and sign up for my newsletter at SUBSTACK.

Here’s hoping that your life is overflowing with meaning, joy, and orchids!

Carol helped me with branding my business as a transformational speaker and trainer. I loved working with her. She is so bright, creative, and visionary. She brings great energy, ideas, and brings opportunities to light for you. She took the time to understand me as a person and the vision for my business. She used this information to help me create a brand image that reflects me and my business on a deeper level than just typical marketing strategies do. Thank you, Carol!
