I am a Certified Daring Way Facilitator

The Daring Way™ is a highly experiential methodology based on the research of Dr. Brené Brown.The method was developed to help men, women and adolescents learn how to show up, be seen and live braver lives. The primary focus is on developing shame resilience skills and developing a courage practice that transforms the way we live, love, parent and lead.

I integrate The Daring Way™ and Brené Brown’s research on vulnerability and shame resiliency into all my work with individuals, groups and workshops.

Interested in joining a group focusing on her work? Call me to see about availability. I am also available to speak or lead workshops at your school or organization.

 “Our lives are a collection of stories – truths about who we are, what we believe, what we come from, how we struggle and how we are strong. When we can let go of what people think, and own our story, we gain access to our worthiness – the feeling that we are enough just as we are, and that we are worthy of love and belonging.” ― Brené Brown
