“Now this is a story all about how My life got flipped-turned upside down…”
Little did I know back in January of 2013, when I walked away from my cushy job in Corporate America, that I would venture into the highs and lows of entrepreneurship. It’s been the most fulfilling work in my entire working career. I believe it’s my dharma to support women in business to position their businesses to not only profit but create a meaningful impact.

Hey there, I’m Patty…
I help service-based entrepreneurs build their Prolific Pro status.
How did I wind up here?
In 2012, burnt out with my cushy corporate job, I made the decision to start something new. In January of 2013, I worked one day in my job (to get my bonus) and jumped “all in” to start my own business. Best decision I’ve ever made.
While in Corporate America I had the distinct privilege to work alongside some really brilliant minds. I saw a glaring need in the small business entrepreneurial space, specific to positioning and that’s where I’ve been able to create the most impact.
Positioning Marketing, without it you’re probably suffering from Random Acts of Marketing which leads to commoditizing what you do.
Let’s do something about it… Your message matters.
10 Random Facts About Me
(Don’t Judge)
1. I love podcasts. I have thousands of listening hours under my belt. I have two shows myself: Positioning to Profit which features women in business and how they are creating their own movements. I also do some solo episodes covering marketing, business, and mindset.
My retired podcast: Boss Free Society which I launched with my buddy Tim Wambach, helps and inspires those people who are considering the idea of quitting their job and finally firing their “bosshole”.
2. I have a situational stutter (due to childhood trauma); to this day, I’m always incredibly flattered beyond belief when people say, “You’re such a great speaker” or “You’re so articulate” — if they only knew how much it’s taken to get my mind right about this one topic.
3. My college years were half spent at The University of Madrid in Spain – it was cheaper to go to school abroad vs. in the U.S. Somehow I still managed to graduate in 4 years.
4. My close friends know that I’m a bit of a germaphobe, my pet peeves include people who talk with their mouths full, when people sneeze in their hands (so gross), or people who grab food with their hands at any type of self-serve buffet thing. I’m sure people can see my disgust (I’m really bad at hiding true emotions – lol!)
5. What’s on my Spotify playlist? Disclosure, Amy Winehouse, Sabrina Claudio, Nao, Lauryn Hill, Sade, Coldplay, Morrissey, Depeche Mode, Old School House music, 90’s grunge. Please don’t judge any of this because if you like country music, we can still be friends 🙂
6. My favorite thing to do is travel. I love experiencing new cultures and the best memories have been during my travel adventures.
7. I cannot go through the day without my “Prolific Leverage Time” where I focus on my self-care: exercise, meditation, reading, and studying topics I love. Currently, I’m obsessed with direct response copywriting, crypto trading, and spirituality (as always).
8. I love Improv – I’ve taken classes and I just love the spontaneity of being goofy and random in humor. I’m convinced I was a court jester in a former life (a really witty one).
9. I love carbs and am pissed that carbs are fattening [we have this ongoing struggle between me and carbs]… lately, I’ve been doing more of an intermittent fasting lifestyle of eating and it really helps me stay focused. I’ve made peace with the fact that I’ll probably never be a size 4.
10. I have found that the more real I am, the more authentically I connect with people, so I believe there’s sheer moxie when someone inserts a well-placed “fuck” when it’s warranted in conversation. Count me in!
