Are you TIRED of working HARD and never having ANY time to PLAY?

Just know that work will always be there so let’s go have some fun!

Isn't it time that you take care of SELF first!

More and more, women suffer from burnout

WHY?

We put everyone else first and think about ourselves last if at all!

Don’t you wish that you could get away to just breathe?

Admittedly, I thought that I would be selfish for having this kind of thought.
I am a recovering WORK-aholic!
I love to breathe, eat and drink work!

However, it came at a cost.

A cost I was no longer willing to pay!
I needed to take my life back and prioritize what was most important to me…
ME and my four beautiful children!
This is where YOU come into the fold…I know I am not the only WORK-aholic on this planet!

You can reclaim your life by going on this recovery journey with me.

 

I launched Work Hard Play HardHER with you in mind…

Helping women to escape on luxury trips, excursions and get-aways.

And if you are serious about really taking control of your life and escaping the 9 to 5…

I help women start their entrepreneurial journey.

You’ve given your all— Now it’s your turn.

Welcome to a vibrant community for women who hustle, care, and dare to have fun again.

For years, I put everyone—kids, careers, expectations—before myself. Then came divorce, and instead of starting over, I leaned in. I rebranded myself. I chose to lead with joy, vitality, and the fierce belief that midlife isn’t a slow fade—it’s a spotlight.

Now, I’m gathering women like you—who do the work, support everybody else, and know it’s their time to play harder. Welcome to a space where laughter, sisterhood, travel, retreats, and networking stand at the center. This isn’t just a community—it’s our reawakening.

Ready to Play HardHER?

You Belong Here

This is your invitation to laugh, learn, travel, and thrive. Whether you’re craving a solo escape or a brunch with soul sisters—this is your community, your time, and your legacy in motion.

Too often, you—like so many women—spent decades taking care of everyone else: managing careers, parenting, household logistics, emotional labor. You went the extra mile… every single day.

A divorce didn’t break you—it redirected you.

It prompted a powerful question:

Now what if you redirected that same care back to yourself?

You chose to rebrand, unapologetically. Instead of “starting over,” you began stepping into who you were always meant to become!
