More About Me

Hello there. I’m Molly and that’s my cat, Jingle Bell.

I’m a Certified Professional Life Coach specializing in transitions and change, where we get to the core of your self-belief system, what makes up your true identity without all the stuff, and how to apply that knowledge to get you what you want in life. I’m also a podcast host, producer, storyteller, and motivational speaker. Before I began inspiring and helping you hone your story, I dedicated my time to helping you find the perfect wine to drink with dinner. I spent years studying, working, traveling, and growing my career in the fine wine industry as a buyer and portfolio manager. I was convinced I was in the best industry there was.

Yet, I wanted more.

The career I thought I loved and the accompanying lifestyle of consumption eventually led to anxiety, fatigue, and frustration. So, I paused, took a breath, and decided to make a change. My conviction for the healing powers of storytelling and my curiosity and yearning to consistently grow to be a better person convinced me to create safe, productive spaces where I can help others do the same. Now, I have a life of balance, fun, and wealth in every sense of the word.

But the change was hard, and I’m still learning!

At first, I was panicked. Panicked that I was too old to change and that I had missed my chance for true happiness. Then, with some guidance, I began to open my mind to it. I was equally terrified and thrilled. It felt both crazy and opportune. I thought I might never figure it out and had moments I knew without a doubt that I would. I had feelings of jealousy when an old wine colleague was offered a coveted job I once would have loved. I’ve had feelings of utter relief knowing that my livelihood would never again depend on keeping wine placements on a restaurant’s list. I’ve felt lonely, sad, and scared. But my own personal coach listened, asked empowering questions, validated my experiences, and held me accountable, especially in my moments of doubt. With their support, I was able to understand my feelings and how to use those feelings to my advantage.

Soon, I was laughing more than I was crying. I was getting up in the mornings excited to start my day and going to sleep at night feeling full and purposeful. The best part was that I didn’t have to wait until I reached my goal to feel this way! But I couldn’t have done it alone. I needed to feel seen and heard while being challenged to think in new ways. That’s what this is about. We need each other. We can’t do life alone. We’re not SUPPOSED to do life alone.

I know, what a relief, right?
