Meet Julie

For more than thirty years, I built a career in technology as a project manager for a Fortune 50 company. I loved solving complex problems, leading teams, and bringing order to complexity. Then, one day, everything changed.

When my position was eliminated, I found myself asking the same question so many of us eventually face: Now what?

That unexpected turning point led me down a path I never could have imagined. I became an award-winning artisan chocolatier, rediscovered my creativity, and eventually found my true calling as an author and creator.

Today, I write to encourage people navigating life’s transitions while also inviting them to think more deeply about the world around them. Through my books, Julie’s Journal, upcoming courses, and The Mindful Activist, I explore reinvention, resilience, personal growth, and the issues that shape our lives and communities. Sometimes that means offering quiet encouragement. Other times, it means asking difficult questions, challenging assumptions, and speaking with conviction when it matters most.

I believe reinvention isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about rediscovering who you’ve been all along beneath the expectations, responsibilities, and labels life places on us. Whether you’re facing retirement, career change, loss, an empty nest, or simply sensing that life is calling you toward something more, I hope you’ll find ideas, inspiration, and practical guidance for your own next chapter.

I’m so glad you’re here. Welcome—I can’t wait to see where your journey leads next.
