I admit it. I am no expert. I do not have a Ph D. in happiness! And yet, I am happy. Neither am I rich, nor am I in perfect health... and yet still happy. Actually... very happy.

But, I haven't always felt this way, and it took a lot of work stumbling through courses and therapy and training and workbooks and whatever else I could get my hands on to try. So no, I am not an expert or therapist. I am just a regular person who struggled with anxiety, confidence, chronic illness, finance, and executive dysregulation... and ended up thriving.

And I know that I'm lucky to have been able to get myself to where I am now (beautiful home, lovely family, amazing career, no debt), and I also know that most people struggle to do this on their own.

Well that is why Unqualified Opinion was created!

Basically, I just want to share what I have learned so everyone can feel as in control of their lives as I do. I take all my first-hand knowledge and training in positive psychology, NLP, ADHD, Executive Functioning, Finance, Fibromyalgia, and Personal Relationships, to develop articles, books, digital tools and courses*, to help your personal growth.

*Courses will be launched Fall 2025 (free & paid options) Subscribe to be the first to know!
