Hi, I’m Abby Cornelius — a speaker, podcast host, working mom, and comeback coach on a mission to empower you to turn setbacks into epic comebacks.
For years, I thought “no” meant the end.
No, you can’t have children.
No, you didn’t get the promotion.
No, this isn’t your time.
Each of those moments shook me — deeply. I faced six long years of infertility and heartbreak, was passed over for opportunities I had poured my heart into, and made the bold decision to leave the corporate world… only to find myself returning with a new perspective. At the time, these setbacks felt like closed doors. But what I’ve come to learn is that every single “no” was actually a redirection — a powerful push toward something greater.
Those roadblocks weren’t holding me back. They were helping me level up.
My journey has been anything but linear, and maybe yours has too. That’s why I’m here — to share real stories, hard-earned lessons, and a whole lot of encouragement with women who are navigating the in-between. Whether you’re climbing the corporate ladder, stepping away to find yourself, or just trying to make it through the day with purpose, I see you. I’ve been there. And I believe your setback might just be the beginning of your most powerful chapter yet.
Let’s rise, shine, and slingshot forward — together.
