Life Strategist · San Francisco Bay Area and remote across the U.S.

Clear next steps when your life, your home, and your look no longer fit.

Divorce, a loss, a move, a family at odds — I help you turn the chaos into order and beauty, one practical decision at a time: at home, in your wardrobe, and in the hard conversations.

I’m not a therapist or an attorney, and I work well alongside both.

Start with a free 20-minute fit call — a short conversation to see if we’re a good fit and which starting point makes sense. If we are a fit, your first paid step is usually the Strategy Session.

What I hear most, during and after a divorce

“I want different. I want better. I want what I’ve never had before. Is that possible?”

Yes. You can, you absolutely can. It starts wherever you are, and I’ll meet you there.

When you’re stuck, in the middle of a divorce or a crisis or just after one, everything seems to need attention at once. Most people would need a different professional for each piece: a wardrobe planner, a mediator, someone for the house, someone to help them get out and meet people. I’m practical and hands-on, and I help with all of it, together. Here are five ways I help you get there. Start with any one.

“I don’t want to rush into the first relationship. Where do I start?”

We start with what you really want, then build a full life at your own pace: good friends, real adventure, and room for love.

“How do I make new friends?” “How do I find someone who loves me, and someone I love?” “I’ve always wanted to learn to dance. Where do I go?”

Start here

“I want to look like the person I’m becoming. Where do I start?”

We start in your closet: what works, what goes, and exactly what to shop for next.

Start here

“Can my home feel like mine, without costing thousands?”

We start with the rooms you live in most and a short list of simple, reasonably priced updates.

Start here

“My ex and I can’t talk without fighting. Where do I start?”

We start with what matters most to you, then work toward agreements everyone can live with.

“Or my teenager, my sibling, my mother-in-law…”

Start here

“My attorney needs me organized. Where do I start?”

We start with your papers, dates, and next decisions, so you arrive at your attorney’s office organized and focused.

Start here

Not divorcing? The same help fits a loss, an empty nest, a move, or any new chapter.

I have worked with Tracy many times for many years. She is dedicated, balanced, detailed, and calm.

I would gladly work with her again and recommend her.

I’ve worked with Tracy many times over the years to assist parties requiring guidance concerning the division of their personal property. While this can often be an emotionally charged issue when parties are ending their marriage, Tracy skillfully guides them toward an equitable resolution, ensuring neither party feels the other received more than they were entitled to receive. The parties avoid the financial and emotional toll of litigation and without exception, clients have expressed their satisfaction with the process and relief that the issue was resolved so seamlessly.

For attorneys

When a client is stuck and overwhelmed in the middle of a divorce or a crisis, I give practical, hands-on help: getting them organized, composed, and ready for what’s ahead, so your time together goes further and you can focus on the legal work. I help with the house and belongings, personal appearance and professional presence, and the hard conversations, including the ones you’d rather not have yourself. Always in support of the attorney, never in place of one. If you have a client who needs something specific, email me directly and we’ll work out how I can help.

After we work together

What will feel different

Less clutter and more beauty at home. Clothing that makes you look and feel younger, stylish, and confident. A weight lifted when someone finally tells you exactly what to throw away, recycle, sell, or buy next. Clearer words — and the right silence — with an ex. A whole new direction for your life, with a clear plan to get there. And readiness for what comes next: new relationships, new friendships, and showing up as your best you.

The first thing I’ll ask you is simple: What do you want? If you’re not sure yet, that’s where we start.

Start with a free 20-minute fit call. It’s short, practical, and only about whether we’re a good fit and where to begin. If we are, your first paid step is usually the Strategy Session: 90 minutes, a written plan within two business days, and something concrete to act on right away.

I’m warm, clear, and composed under pressure. I’ll tell you the truth, kindly, and then help you act on it — alongside your attorney or therapist when you have one, never instead of them.
