Hi, I’m Patrice. I’m an organizational psychologist, author, and Founder of 5 Great Decisions®.
The thread running through all my work is the same one that has driven me: helping people get specific about the future they want — and then providing a framework that moves them toward it. Not through grand gestures or dramatic reinvention. Through small, deliberate choices guided by a vision.

I came to this work as an organizational psychologist — spending 15 years partnering with companies to help their employees navigate one of life’s most significant transitions: retirement. Not the financial planning part. The human part. Identity, purpose, relationships, time. The questions that don’t have obvious answers. The time in life when we need a new roadmap.
What I kept seeing is that most people haven’t taken time to ask what they really want their future to look like. And without that clarity, even the best intentions tend to drift.
That’s why I’m so excited to introduce 5 Great Decisions® — a personal practice of conscious decision making that bridges the gap between who you are and who you aspire to become. Not through willpower or discipline, but through recognition — learning to see the moments in everyday life where one intentional choice moves you toward the life you want to create.
