About Brooke
I feel blessed to be one of those people who discovered her life purpose very early on. I was the product of divorced parents by the age of two and dealt with chronic health challenges and body image issues, since childhood. I was a shy and insecure kid who was afraid to be "me" or have a "voice". I never felt "good enough". I had no idea how "powerful" I was or how "powerful" I would one day become as an adult. I only wish I had a mentor or coach to help me discover it back then. I was extremely empathic, intuitive and sensitive to people's feelings and experiences. I learned to channel those feelings through creativity and performing. I was acting, singing and dancing by the age of eight.
By high school, I developed a strong sense of self and graduated in the top of my class. By college, I was President of my sorority, winning National awards and scholarships and graduated Magna Cum Laude. I was set to go to Law School, but followed my true calling and headed to New York to be an actress. Instead of following logic, I followed my life purpose. I made my living acting in New York for a few years and headed out to Hollywood. I achieved some wonderful success as an actress and went on to become an independent producer and created Philly Chick Pictures. I became an award-winning actress/producer and even found a bit of fame in the horror, sci-fi and mobster genres. In horror, I also found the most amazing creation of my career ... Ms. Vampy. I had always felt that I was being of service to others through my acting, but I felt like I needed to make a difference on a deeper level. I have been through so much in my life and I still feel like a teenager at heart, so I created a talk show for teens with Ms. Vampy as a role model to mentor them through issues they face today. The show was such an inspiration that I found my other true calling and went back to school to further pursue my understanding and certification as a Life Coach.
While staying true and committed to my passions and dreams, I have always remained a "love bug". I chose my career over marriage, but still remain a "hopeful romantic". As a single woman in La La Land, I have actually had the time of my life dating and online dating, and have stories to fill a volume of books! As my Life Coaching business grew, I learned how many people are challenged with dating, online dating, getting back out "there" after a break-up or a divorce and how much digital dating has changed the natural course of finding love and a partner. My clients would come in to break through a career fear and half the coaching session would turn into a conversation about the date they had the night before. I am so excited and inspired by the subject of dating and online dating (and, surely skilled on the subject), that I expanded my coaching career and became a Dating Coach and Expert. We all know that dating can be "dauntless", so, as a coach, I am here to help you "Be You...And, Be Fearless!".
