Think of me as the martini-pouring truth-teller who blends Southern charm with New York edge—mixing grit, glam, and unapologetic real talk to build a front-row world where women rise.

Here's a Great Freebie or Something

There comes a point in every woman’s life when she realizes she’s been living by a script she didn’t write.

The rules. The expectations. The pressure to be agreeable, polished, accommodating, grateful, quiet enough not to make people uncomfortable, but successful enough to be admired.

For years, many of us have been checking all the boxes while secretly wondering why something still feels missing.

We have careers. Families. Accomplishments. Beautiful homes. Packed calendars. Responsibilities.

Yet, so many women are still craving something deeper.

Connection.
Belonging.
Purpose.
Permission.

A place where they don’t have to explain themselves.

A room where they can show up exactly as they are.

That’s why I’m building The UNproper Community.

Not because the world needs another networking group.

Not because women need another business card exchange or another event where everyone talks about what they do but never who they are.

I’m building it because women are starving for real connection.

I’m building it because too many extraordinary women are carrying the weight of their ambitions, dreams, challenges, and reinventions alone.

And I’m building it because I know what happens when women gather in a room and finally feel seen.

Everything changes.

The Wake-Up Call That Changed Everything

At 45 years old, I survived a heart attack.

It’s hard to explain what happens when life suddenly reminds you that your time is not unlimited.

You stop postponing the things that matter.

You stop waiting for permission.

You stop asking whether you’re qualified enough, ready enough, or whether people will approve.

You start asking a different question:

“What am I here to do?”

For me, the answer became crystal clear.

Something that would outlive me.

Bringing women together in a way that feels rare in today’s world.

The UNproper Community was born from that calling.

Women Don’t Need More Information. They Need More Community.

Let’s be honest.

Women today have access to more information than ever before.

We can learn anything on YouTube.
Listen to thousands of podcasts.
Read endless books.
Follow experts on social media.

But information isn’t the problem.

Isolation is.

You don’t transform your life because of one more Instagram quote.

You transform your life because of the people you’re surrounded by.

You transform because you’re sitting across from a woman who tells a story that sounds exactly like yours.

You transform because someone introduces you to an opportunity you never knew existed.

You transform because someone sees something in you before you see it in yourself.

You transform because you’re finally in the right room.

That’s what The UNproper Community is creating.

Not followers.
Not fans.

A sisterhood of women who are becoming.

Why The UNproper Supper Club Matters

The UNproper Supper Club isn’t just a fancy dinner.

Its intentional connection.

Its deeply meaningful conversation.

It’s a room filled with women who are ambitious, curious, creative, courageous, successful, evolving, and hungry for more.

More impact.
More fulfillment.
More authenticity.
More life.

In a world where everyone is glued to their screens, we’re bringing women back to the table.

Back to conversation.
Back to community.

Back to the kind of connection that can’t happen through a comment section.

The magic isn’t in the meal.

The magic is in who sits around the table.

The woman next to you may become your next collaborator.

Your mentor.
Your client.
Your business partner.
Your biggest supporter.

Or simply the friend you didn’t know you needed.

Every meaningful relationship starts with a conversation.

The Supper Club creates the space for those conversations to happen.

Why You Need to Be in the Room

Because something powerful happens when women decide to stop waiting.

Waiting for the perfect time.
Waiting until they’ve lost the weight.
Waiting until the business is bigger.
Waiting until the kids are older.
Waiting until they feel ready.

The women changing their lives don’t wait.

They show up.

They invest in themselves.
They put themselves in rooms where growth is possible.
They understand that proximity matters.

The conversations you have shape your thinking.

The rooms you enter shape your opportunities.

If you’re feeling called to something bigger…
If you’ve outgrown where you’ve been…
If you’re craving connection, inspiration, community, and purpose…

Then this is your invitation.

Not because I have all the answers.

I don’t.

But because I know the power of gathering women who are bold enough to ask bigger questions.

Women who are ready to stop shrinking.
Women who are ready to take up space.
Women who are ready to create impact.
