I never really got to know my father before he died, and I also found my mother dead when I was only 12 years old. I’ve had a history of really good relationships, but not fulfilling relationships. There is a difference. I never experienced the fighting and financial abuse stuff, but I hadn’t found my person. Sure, we had the successful relationship on paper. From the outside, we looked like your average happy family. But on the inside, it was empty so I chose not to settle.

When we came together, the reason we knew this was the right relationship was our comfort in the “pregnant silence.” We can be in the car with no music, complete silence, and nothing needs to be said. We don’t need to fill that space because nothing is missing. There’s a warmth and love that is just there. And that’s what we want to help other women find for themselves.

A lot of women (ourselves included) have felt that they were not enough. If they could just get a better job or clean the house better or lose weight or look sexier or be taller – if I was just this extra thing – then I’d be worthy of a good, solid partner or I would be worthy of friends or lovers that adored me. We teach women that they are whole as they are. Then they can attract others who are as whole as they are. A successful relationship is taking both whole circles to create that Venn Diagram that grows. These diagrams work for friendships, romantic partners, and families.

After helping many of our girlfriends navigate their relationships, we started teaching women everywhere how they can do the same: we watched their confidence soar! We have since made a commitment to dedicate the rest of our professional lives to helping other women find that fulfilling relationship with the people who balances you – the one who understands and embraces each other’s “brands of crazy” or their tribe.

Since then, we’ve worked with many private clients and shared our story in front of countless groups. We are living our dream of living our life without apology; and we have created Your Phoenix is Rising System™, a series of 10 important personal development steps in 10 weeks every woman needs to apply to feel more confident in who you are right now in this moment, embrace who you are deep down inside, and find relationships that are worthy of you. We know that there are ashes from your past but now is the time to dust it off and rise into your greater self-awareness. It took us years of classes and workshops to get to this point, but we have cut that time down and delivered this knowledge to you in a 10 week individualized program. You true life starts now!
