Rewire Coach
Hi I’m Megan (Valencia Darnell). After suffering from severe burn out in the world of tech startups, I knew something had to change. I switched my focus to living a life rooted in what truly matters versus constantly striving for external validation. That shift changed so much in my life, and opened the door to joining HAPPINESS SQUAD where I get to blend my love of creating with my purpose of helping myself and others stay vulnerable and balanced. In addition to the work I do here, I teach at CU Boulder and enjoy spending time with my husband and our fur baby, Cali.
