Why I Created Rose & Resolve

Rose & Resolve was born out of my own healing

During my recovery in October of 2021, my world slowed in ways I had not planned and could not ignore. In that stillness, I began to notice how loud my inner critic had become and how quiet my own voice felt. The confident, creative, audacious part of me that had always guided my work and leadership felt distant, almost unfamiliar.

When Doubt Quietly Takes Over

It was not that I felt unseen. It was that I had lost access to a part of myself.

Over time, a series of personal, professional, and health challenges chipped away at my confidence in subtle ways. Doubt crept in. Insecurity took up more space than I realized. What I was experiencing was impostor syndrome, not as a passing moment, but as a steady undercurrent that slowly pulled me away from my own voice.

I was still performing. Still leading. Still showing up. But I was relying more on proving than trusting, more on strategy than intuition. The creative, audacious part of me had not disappeared. It had gone into hiding, waiting for conditions that felt safer.

Recovery, Self-Trust, and the Cost of Pushing Through

Like many capable people, I had learned how to push through. To adapt. To keep going.

Well meaning people tried to help me find my voice again. They offered encouragement, reassurance, and advice. I appreciated the care, but none of it quite landed. What I needed was not more affirmation. I needed tools. Language. A way to work with what was happening inside me rather than trying to power through it.

This was not about motivation. It was about understanding how doubt and fear were shaping my decisions and learning how to work with them skillfully.

Discovering Playing Big and Practical Tools That Worked

That is when I was introduced to Playing Big by Tara Mohr.

For the first time, I felt understood in a practical, grounded way. The framework helped me understand how my inner critic operated, why my voice had gone quiet, and how to begin listening to a wiser, steadier part of myself again. It was not about positive thinking or confidence hacks. It was about building real skills.

I went on to complete Tara’s facilitator training, and it was during that experience something clicked.

Why Rose & Resolve Exists

The idea that had lived quietly in the back of my mind for nearly a decade finally asked to be taken seriously.

Rose & Resolve became my answer.

I wanted to create a coaching practice rooted not just in conversation, but in real tools, meaningful activities, and accountability. A place where insight turns into action. Where reflection is paired with practice. Since then, I have intentionally built my work by drawing from multiple experts and coaching frameworks

 This work is personal because it changed me first.

Coaching for Anyone Ready to Reclaim Their Voice

Rose & Resolve is for people who are capable, thoughtful, and accomplished, yet quietly questioning themselves. People navigating transitions, recovery, or the subtle erosion of confidence that can happen after life takes a few turns.

This work resonates strongly with women because of how often they are socialized to doubt themselves, but the tools and practices at the heart of Rose & Resolve are human ones. They support anyone who has lost access to their voice, creativity, or confidence and is ready to rebuild self-trust in a grounded, practical way.

 This is not about fixing you. It is about helping you reclaim what is already yours.

 Call to Action
