With the edge of an insider, but the heart of a dreamer, the disarming and unflappable Emily meshes her views on the entertainment industry she works in, the men she's dated, the therapy sessions she mulled over, and "the one" she knows is out there for every woman ... including herself.

Coach Carrie
Hi, I'm Coach Carrie
I’ve spent decades as a fixer, navigating narratives, steadying chaos, solving problems, and guiding leaders through pivotal moments. Along the way, I learned that in the middle of everyone else’s story, it’s easy to lose your own.
Now, my work blends practical tools, science-based strategies, and lived experience to help you find your power, purpose and peace
and live it unapologetically.
Whether you’re leading a team, running a business, or trying to stay above water as the CEO of your home, we start from the inside out, shifting the mic and the stories you tell yourself to create the life you deserve.
When your communication changes, so does your clarity, your connection, and your confidence. And life? It stops feeling like a performance and starts feeling like your truth.
