Work with Yedda

People are my passion. For more than two decades, I’ve built my career helping individuals and organizations turn thoughts into things—bridging the inner and outer work that drives both personal fulfillment and professional success. I believe that every meaningful change begins within, and that when we shift our inner world, everything else follows.

In my work, I help people see how their mindset and behaviors directly shape the bottom line of everything in their lives—from relationships and leadership to health, purpose, and prosperity. Together, we uncover the unseen patterns that hold you back, quiet the inner critic, and build new habits that align with your goals and values. My clients learn to take their power back, reclaim their joy, and make a difference in ways that truly matter.

Whether I’m coaching a CEO, facilitating a leadership team, or guiding someone through a personal transformation, my approach blends deep insight with practical application. It’s not just about mindset—it’s about movement. It’s about doing the inner work that fuels outer results.

My Story:


New Paragraph

This is Me!

Motto I Live By

Always assume positive intent. Everyone is doing the best they can at their current level of awareness.

I Am All About

Managing difficult conversations to "re-humanize” the world and workplace one belief at a time. Teaching people how to speak words and create images that foster belonging, love, and unity. Seeing The Creator in everyone and everything.

What I Love

Being curious and researching everything I can about the human condition. Talking intimately with people from different cultures. Asking BIG questions. Speaking on a stage. Telling stories. Inspiring everyone I meet to love themselves unconditionally.

I Believe

We all matter simply because we exist. We can create a world where every person feels awakened and deeply connected to their true self. We can cultivate social norms of lovingkindness and equanimity, where everyone feels safe.

I Am Not About

Avoiding truth. Excluding others. Gossip and negative conversation. Anything that dims the lights and beauty of the human spirit. Low-vibration energy.

Daily Rituals

Early morning silence and stillness. Listening to the birds sing. Good coffee. Reading. Exercise. Sunshine and sharing smiles with others. Snuggling with Saja, my six pound Yorkie.
