ABOUT
You can’t give your people what you haven’t built in yourself. I help leaders do the inside work first.
My job is to help leaders, organizations,and teams get UNMUTED - step up, speak up and show up more fully, amplifying their influence and impact at work and in the world. It’s time to come alive.
COMPANIES RACHEL HAS SERVED
I create experiences that activate, energize, and empower people to show up with greater clarity, confidence, and contribution.
For over a dozen years, I worked with organizations and leaders to elevate engagement, wellbeing, and workplace culture as the Director of Wellbeing & Employee Engagement. No matter the industry, I saw the same struggles play out—disengagement, stress, burnout, and the challenge of navigating change, uncertainty, and adversity. But these weren’t just challenges I witnessed; they were battles I fought myself.
For years, I muted my joy, silenced my voice, and hustled for validation, afraid of taking up space or falling short. It wasn’t until life forced me to pause—through a health crisis of burnout and a spinal fracture after being hit by a pickup truck—that I began to reflect, recalibrate, and reclaim my voice.
Through that season of adversity, I uncovered a deep well of resilience, creativity, and hope that carried me forward. I began to advocate for myself, share my voice unapologetically, and embrace my passion for connecting with and empowering others. Today, as a keynote speaker and singer-songwriter, I help people and teams unmute themselves, navigate challenges with courage, and unlock and amplify what’s possible. Together, we’ll move beyond burnout and self-doubt and into a space of clarity, connection, and purpose. I'm now living my dream of being a keynote speaker and a singer-songwriter, and I'm here to help you unleash what's possible, too.
Because that’s what drives engagement.
