I love learning and college indeed was therapy for me, but photography was my real passion. I have spent the past 20 years as a professional photographer, specializing in fashion and commercial work. I love supporting other women in the industry so I created a space for them to feel safe with a woman photographer. Being in an industry dominated by men became stressful. Despite my hard work and success, I became burnt out. Things from my past were surfacing, I couldn’t name exactly why I was being reactive, but I knew that it was my own suppressed emotions wanting to be felt. No one was coming to save me and I had to start showing up for myself, for little Brooke. Being abandoned by your parents will imprint you with trauma that only you are responsible for healing. I tried DBT, therapy, and I did learn some skills, but no one I worked with was centering women and creating solutions for us. My life shifted when I surrendered to the past. I began to change toxic habits, I ended unhealthy relationships with friends and clients, I used all of my resources and I put myself first. Now my relationships with my kids inspire me, my businesses and friendships are thriving, I have the most amazing and healthy partner and I love my life, but I had to do the work. I created Dame after learning a strategy and philosophy that works for women. Now is your time to benefit from everyting I have learned so far and all of the sacrifices I made, so that you can begin to live a life you adore. 

I believe in the power of women to transform their lives and create meaningful change. Your unique story and potential inspire me. I am dedicated to helping you achieve transformation, empowerment, balance, and personal growth. Let me show you how to heal.
