Personal Development
Drawn to neuroscience, neuroplasticity, neurodiversity, and neuropsychology - essentially, why we are the way we are, why we do the things we do, and how our mind and body are interconnected - I seek out new opportunities to better understand my own mind while gaining the perspective of what others have been through in support of my own learnings. I love to challenge myself and be challenged by others, as well as hear the stories that others are willing to share - so often we're able to learn more about our own self by listening to what others have to say. As a student of life, I love joining retreats and working with coaches all in the name of personal development and mindset mastery.

Rob Dial's Fulfillment Retreat
2023
In August of 2023, Rob Dial from The Mindset Mentor, designed
and hosted his first version of a personal development retreat.
Rob and his team personally hand selected a small group of
applicants to attend a 3 day summit in Austin, TX where we worked together in teams to challenge ourselves and others through varying mental challenges. As a VIP at the retreat, I joined additional
sessions outside of the main event, working even more closely with
Rob and other VIPs in a more intimate and submersed setting.
Forever Athlete Retreat
2022
An Austin based sporting club, Forever Athlete, hosted an "Away Game" designed for athletes with the goal of connecting, decompressing, and staying active. The founder, Cory Camp, recruited a number of experts that led us through different activities over the course of a few days. We did a Nike sponsored field day, a confidence workshop, ThetaBreathwork sessions, a digital detox, flow and focus workshop, with curated dinners, games, and lots of sun.
Comfort Zone Retreat
2022
We hit the road and headed out West to Cañon City, CO. Comfort Zone retreats are based around "doing hard things" and pushing yourself... out of your comfort zone. We glamped on the Arkansas River where we connected over cold plunges, breath work, meditation, yoga, circle shares, hikes, whitewater rafting, ziplining, and community meals.
Personal coaching with Tony Robbins' Peak Performance Strategist: Karissa Kouchis
2020 - 2021
At the beginning of 2020 as the world was beginning to change,
I discovered Tony Robbins' top peak performance strategist,
Karissa Kouchis, self branded as "KK". During this time she was
giving life to a new program called "Unleash Her Power Within",
a clever take on Tonys' "Unleash Your Power Within". As she was building this curriculum, I was part of her beta program where we
met as a team once a week for coaching, and again on the
weekends for book club where we studied Tony's teachings
on all things mindset, perspective, and personal growth.
