what we care about drives us.

After I was told it was no longer a matter of if I was going to get cancer, it was a matter of when I decided it was time to take charge of my health and change my destiny. I set out to learn how to master stress, fight disease, and more importantly, support my whole human health to feel better so I could be at my best. Little did I know it would completely change how I think, engage, work, find resilience, perform, and thrive in my work and life every day. I realized that fear is not a sustainable motivator, care is.

The background story

After losing both parents to cancer just one year apart and receiving a doctor's warning about her own cancer risk, she left her high-stress position as a burned-out fashion executive. She founded Path for Life® in 2004 to help prevent workplace burnout, providing people with tools to maintain health while staying productive and achieve better work-life quality.

She wrote The Self-Care Mindset® as a guidebook to help people unlock their human advantage and enable leaders to cultivate Care-Driven Leadership® skills and build a Culture of Care® where people belong and thrive together.

Born in Denmark, she holds a master's degree in business development and marketing. She has guided teams to growth through understanding the power of care. Following 15 years in the fashion industry, she has spent two decades as a mindset coach, working with individuals and leaders to uncover what holds us back and what we need to unlock our human potential—insights that shaped the tools she shares today.

She has developed and facilitated training programs that align organizational culture strategy with the brand story, driven by her deep conviction that care is humanity's most powerful force.

When not helping people and organizations transform their thinking to better connect, communicate, and collaborate, she lives in the Catskill Mountains with her dog, Maya, where she enjoys motorcycling in summer and skiing in winter.

She remains deeply passionate about creating healthier workplace communities where everyone can learn Power-Pausing™ and Self-Care Mindset® skills to grow, thrive, and build a better future together—because every person matters.
