Employment Litigation Attorney

VP Emerita UN Women | Attorney Action Figure 🦸🏻‍♀️ | Arresting Author | Chief Negotiation Officer | Plucky Podcast Host | Irreverent Int'l Keynote | "What Box?" Bellwether

📚 World domination through literary seduction. Elegant. Defiant. Irresistibly true. Are you ready for what's next (October 13, 2025)? MY WRITING IS ORGANIC USING REAL INTELLIGENCE (AI wishes it could write like me)

I'm not bossy. I'm BOSS. A UN Women VP, provocatrice, attorney/law professor turned negotiation GOAT . . .

(Buckle up. This is ..."a lot")

🦸🏻‍♀️ I help women harness the power of everyday negotiation—from conning a toddler into eating peas to running the boardroom. I authored the Little Black Dress of negotiation books. Why?

Because negotiation isn’t just for business. It’s everybody’s business 🧐

(But you don’t need me to “empower” you. Nor do I sell a “masterclass” or certification from my own “institute”)

🌍 World Mediation Peace Activist. Benevolent & incurable explorer (dubbed “creative savant”—you know who you are). A bit wild at ❤️‍🔥, I struggle with purpose and disrupt with goodwill—through advocacy, teaching, writing, broadcasting, philanthropy, art & sports.

🗣️ Polyglot. Passionate about people & social progress. JEDI agent (not a Star Wars ref). I’ve practiced law in private, public & non-profit sectors; have taught internationally, including over two decades as faculty at two University of California law schools.

I get that people are messy multitudes—and how they actually behave in conflict & decision-making.
What makes me next-level? Decades of deep experience in negotiation, behavioral economics, game theory, plus dope training in:

✔️ Emotional micro-expressions
✔️ Lie detection
✔️ Neuroscience & decision analysis

Oh, and I know the #1 most stealth negotiation skill. 😎

(Kinda like x-ray vision. Hint: it’s NOT “speaking your truth.”)

WHAT I’M NOT:

❌ A sales/marketing bro who built my expertise off a “masterclass”
❌ A brand
❌ Your income stream
❌ After your 💰 or approval
❌ One to trademark words. Ahem™ 🙄 (you know the type)

Special needs parent & dog whisperer—chaos doesn’t faze me, and persistence is my default setting. CEO of a 501(c)(3) nonprofit providing dogs & sibling support for families with special needs kids.

🫶 Turn-ons: Cake, shoes, pour-over coffee, decent literature
🤢 Turn-offs: NIMBYism, vapid buzzwords, elitism, posers

💡 Meyers-Briggs type? ENFJ-A (same 2% club as Obama & Oprah).

🕸️See more on pactumfactum.com, but TLDR: 
I’m 95% human Labrador (begs the question: what’s the other 5%?). Find it endearing or annoying. That's on you. Either way, I’ll be me because, as Oscar Wilde said, “Everyone else is taken.”

P.S.
❌ I don’t do casual Zoom coffee chats
✅ I’ve already overpaid it forward

Coach

If you're a female business owner and you...
- Have been spending so much time & energy creating content that's just not converting dream clients as consistently & easily as you KNOW is possible for you
- Read back your messaging and think "this just doesn't sound completely like ME"
- Sit down to create content & the vibe is "What do I have to post today to get clients??"

You're in the right place

Messaging isn't just social media posts... it touches every area of your biz

How people relate to your brand, every place you show up & communicate & connect with your people, & how you cultivate trust that precedes conversion

And when you nail your messaging, it uplevels every single area of your business

What if this was your reality instead...
⚡️Messaging that moves your dream clients to buy from you
⚡️More aligned clients that get amazing results in your spaces
⚡️Wealth that gives you the freedom to live life on your own terms
⚡️Less time & energy spent creating content, more time living your life
⚡️Embodying a new level of confidence & creativity as you share the fullest expression of your voice 
⚡️Deeply personalized coaching & support that helps bring your messaging to life for your unique biz

WITHOUT having to…
❌ Create viral content
❌Have a large following 
❌Be on social media every day or on every platform
❌Pay for adds, a copywriter, or hire a social media manager 

You're quite literally leaving money on the table by not nailing your messaging, and this is where I come in

Our work together is about discovering & articulating your own unique voice, connecting the dots with your ideal clients and learning to communicate in a deeply memorable & impactful way

Once you nail this, it’s the #1 moneymaker in your biz

Be seen. Be heard. Be you. Get PAID

I coach female business owners to amplify their voice, elevate their brand, and increase their income via their memorable and impactful messaging

With over 14 years of experience in digital marketing, strategy, and copywriting, my unique methodology combines coaching, mentorship, and done-with-you messaging support that has helped nearly 100 clients create magnetic messaging that tangibly grows their business 

I would love to explore supporting you in this deeply impactful work
