“….critical to iconic”

“At a critical point in both my personal and professional life, Di provided the clarity and strategic judgment I was unable to access on my own. Her calm, direct counsel stabilized complex circumstances and repositioned my trajectory at a pivotal moment. Di quietly and astoundingly engineered a path where public perception has surpassed my end-goals.”

 – CEO (Forbes)

 “Amid suggestions from those around me to abandon my dreams of screenwriting and directing due to an embarrassing incident – luck intervened when Di was recommended. Her honest strategic advice and solid reverence toward ‘the industry’ not only salvaged my reputation but propelled it to explode worldwide.

 – Writer (WGA)

 “After a sudden and very public humiliation left me stressed and unable to accept roles or  personal appearances, Di intervened in a stealth-like calm and strategy that quickly stabilized the situation. I am now back to signing principal roles – again. “

When I finally became aware that I had no viable anchor in my life because I had been hidden and encompassed by insidious mysteries surrounding my birth – I didn’t want to feel broken any longer. Thus, I wrote a book and screenplay entitled HOLLYWOOD ‘LIT. . . ‘ believing there would be an absolute end to the pain I had experienced as a young child and teenager – although the pain ceaselessly chased me into adulthood.

I had been the secret that held my mother prisoner along with my young actor father who was denied a truth that he had a newborn baby daughter. These secrets haunted me until I made a decision to earn an MA in psychology, which helped ease the anxiety, stress, and embarrassment prevalent – daily.

I am one who has experienced pain, anxiety, trauma, and blatant abandonment. Through this wound, I experienced a new birth, which now serves to help individuals find new pathways that ignite joy and passion they once chased and inexplicably—lost. Through these challenges, I have had the profound pleasure of helping ground high-end CEO’s, actors, producers, and directors when they became stranded in essential arenas of their productivity.
