“You can stay uncomfortable where you are or get uncomfortable where you are going - but only one of those gets you closer to where you want to be.”

Hiya! I’m Teri
and I’m ready to guide you through your next evolution.
Whether you’re a creative, a leader, or a human standing at the edge of a new chapter, you’re here because you feel one thing:
You’ve outgrown who you were
and you’re ready to step into your becoming.
I guide people through identity transitions, belief dismantling, and self-led transformation.
No forcing. No fixing. No fuss.
Just clarity, curiosity, and grounded expansion through methods that help you return to yourself again and again.
How we do it:
We go beneath the surface to uncover who you’ve been, who you are, and who you’re becoming.
IDENTITY WORK
INNER AUTHORITY
You learn to trust yourself again:
your voice, your instincts, your desires.
EXPANSION
This isn’t about improving the old version of you.
It’s about expanding into the next one.
FRAMEWORKS WITH DEPTH
All my frameworks are created from lived experience & are psychology based so that your evolution becomes clear, grounded, and actionable.
SIGNATURE FRAMEWORKS
A transformative, psychology-backed framework designed to move you from stuck and stagnant to self-led and sovereign through Awareness, Curiosity, and Empowered Action.
A groundbreaking framework used worldwide in retreat settings to dismantle body-based beliefs and rewrite the internal narratives that shape how we show up, lead, and live.
Based on Teri's TEDx Talk 5 Reasons You Look Bad In Photos, From Cringe to Compassion is a transformative self-perception framework designed to help you understand why you feel uncomfortable in photos and how that discomfort reveals deeper beliefs about identity, worthiness, and visibility.
The Geode Theory: Chipping Away at Body Image was Teri’s first self-development book focused on chipping away at the distraction of body image insecurity to reveal your authentic & sparkly inner light. Every year we run 2 co-horts to move through the book and corresponding questions with each other.
Extra, Extra!

Yep. This is the talk that went viral and caused me to have a full day panic attack over being seen. Was it worth it?
Hell ya.
From the Blog
I focus a lot on healing the inner child because the inner child is where the essence of our being lives. The parts of ourselves that I believe are pure magic, divine light, and here to do incredible work however those parts of us rarely get nurtured to the fullest extent simply because of the society we live in and how we as humans are constantly evolving (and quickly!). But in all the work to heal our YOUNGER selves, we tend to forget that our more recent younger selves also deserve the same love, attention, and compassion. So, in honor of the end of this year, I want to share a few ways that you can connect with a more recent, younger version of you so that you can move forward with knowledge, peace, and love in your heart for all the ways you show up. So, grab your journals and let’s get into it!
