About me!

Hey, I’m Brie.

In 2023, I lost my job. I did what any slightly-unhinged person down on their luck would do: I started writing about my experience on the internet (This is funny when you consider I'm actually quite shy).‍

What began as a way to pay my bills and regain a sense of purpose evolved into a three year exploration of a gigantic question:

How do we build meaningful, financially secure careers in a world where certainty is scarce and the rules of work keep changing?

My obsession with this question eventually birthed a business and a podcast. Then a book! Today, my work lives at the intersection of careers, identity, and creativity. Across a variety of mediums, I explore how people create opportunity for themselves, adapt to change, and develop careers that make them happy and fulfilled again.


"BRIe listened deeply, held space for all my ideas and uncertainty, and reflected back a clear, grounded understanding of who I am and what I’m building. Her APPROACH is holistic, supportive, and rooted in lived experience, business know-how, and genuine care.

My hope is that you leave my “WORLD” feeling a lot more energized AND hopeful Because you are equipped with practical tools to become the painfully obvious hire for the opportunities we both know YOU DESERVE…

(And while I can't promise the road ahead will be easy, I can tell you that on the other side of the thing that knocked us off our path is often the version of ourselves we never would have met otherwise.)

MY LATEST PROJECT!

POLYWORKER: A laugh-out-loud MANIFESTO for creative professionals.

In January I expanded into new creative mediums and published a memoir manifesto in the non-fiction category. I experimented with 4th wall writing techniques and socio-political commentating about what it is really like to build a non-traditional career on your terms.

WORK WITH ME!

WANT Some HELP STARTING OVER?

I begin all client engagements with a single working session to tackle an issue you are facing. It gives us a chance to determine whether we're a good fit and whether my approach and skill set is the right match for your situation. If one session gets you unstuck or is all you need, fantastic! If we determine you need a greater level of support, we can talk about a workshop or product consulting package. (And if you are unsure which one of these you need, start with the quiz!)
