Step into Your Moxie is a certified woman-owned and disability-owned business enterprise that shows business leaders, consultants, and changemakers how to find their voice and master using it.Our ‘secret sauce’ is teaching leaders, and those who develop them, how to develop the mindset and skillset to be present with the discomfort that often comes up when speaking—especially during high-stakes communication.Light on theory and rooted in hands-on practice, our coaching, training, and certification programs ensure our clients can walk into any room, conversation, or onto any stage and speak up for themselves, their important ideas, and call people to take action.Step into Your Moxie is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion and to creating safety and belonging for people from all backgrounds. This includes women, people of color, members of the LGBTQIA+ community, people with disabilities, and people recovering from trauma and living with chronic illnesses.In my role as COO, I manage Step into Your Moxie corporate engagements, client care, and Step into Your Moxie® Certification. I also facilitate media production for Step into Your Moxie live events and oversee photography, speaker reels, and branding materials for Step into Your Moxie thought leadership clients.
