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 both her parents died of cancer just one year apart and a doctor told her it was only a matter of when she would get cancer, too, she quit her high-stress job as a burned-out fashion executive. She founded Path for Life® in 2004 to create awareness around preventing burnout in the workplace and giving people the tools to be busy and healthy at the same time and achieve better work/life quality.
She wrote The Self-Care Mindset® as a guidebook for people to unlock their human advantage and leaders to cultivate Care-Driven Leadership® skills and build a Culture of Care® where people belong and work better together.
Born in Denmark, she holds a master's degree in business development and marketing. She has led teams to growth by understanding the power of care. After 15 years in the fashion business, she’s spent 20 years as a mindset coach, working with people and leaders to truly understand what keeps us stuck and what we need to unlock our human greatness, leading to the tools she shares today.
She has developed and facilitated training programs to align culture strategy with the brand story, and her deep passion is for everyone to know they matter.
When she is not working to help people and companies change how they think so they can connect, communicate, and collaborate better, she lives in the Catskill Mountains with her dog, Maya. Here, you can find her riding her motorcycle in the summer or skiing in the winter.
She is always curious about how we can cultivate healthier communities, especially at work, so that everyone learns the tools of self-care, grows, thrives, and builds a better culture together.
