AboutHi, I'm Audra.
I'm a researcher, strategist, classically trained moderator, consultant, spiritual enthusiast, and host of the Unveil You podcast. If there's a common thread through my work, it's curiosity. I'm fascinated by people, what drives them, and what's really going on beneath the surface.
How I workBeneath the obvious answer.
I have a B.S. in Food Science and Technology from the University of Nebraska and an M.S. in Sensory and Consumer Research from Kansas State University. For nearly a decade, I've worked across consumer insights and strategy, conducting and advising on qualitative and quantitative research across healthcare technology, consumer goods, luxury hospitality, real estate, SaaS, food and beverage, cannabis, and more. My career has taken some unexpected turns along the way. I've worked in product development within the cannabis industry, creating everything from gummies and frozen treats to beverage mixes and effervescent products, and have consulted independently on product formulation and recipe development.
My research on the sensory and consumer effects of different cannabinoids has been presented internationally. On the quantitative side, my experience spans survey design, customer segmentation, market sizing, advanced statistical analysis, and translating complex datasets into clear answers businesses can actually use. As a classically trained moderator with years of experience interviewing people, I know how to ask the questions that get beyond the obvious answer. My strong intuition adds another dimension to that skill. I pick up on what isn't being said, know when there's something worth digging into, and have an innate sense for how to get there without wasting time.
THE BIGGEST SHIFT
The thing that changed everything.
The biggest shift in my life had nothing to do with my career.
The birth of my first daughter in 2023 cracked me wide open. What followed was a difficult experience with postpartum depression that had me questioning things much bigger than what I wanted to do for work: what the point of any of this was, why we're here, and whether there was more to life than the version of reality I had always understood. Those questions sent me down a path I never could have predicted, deeply exploring spirituality, consciousness, manifestation, and intuition, while intentionally developing intuitive abilities I had experienced throughout my life but never fully understood. And because I'm still a researcher at heart, I didn't lose my desire to question, investigate, find patterns, and understand how things work. If anything, I became even more curious.
That exploration made its way into my work. I've worked one-on-one with clients to blend mindset and intuitive work with practical strategy, helping people identify limiting beliefs, get unstuck after years of career stagnation, strengthen their data and presentation skills, and make meaningful moves forward in their work and lives.
That same curiosity became Unveil You, a podcast exploring intuition, consciousness, manifestation, identity, personal transformation, and the parts of human experience we don't always have language for. Today, it's listened to in more than 70 countries, available across major podcast platforms and in video on YouTube. As it turns out, getting people to open up and tell me what they really think for a living is pretty great preparation for hosting a podcast!
LET'S CONNECTFinding the signal.
Today, I don't try to force all of these things into one neat title. I research. I analyze. I interview. I advise. I create. I communicate. I help people find the thing underneath the thing. Whether I'm staring at a complicated dataset, interviewing someone about their life, helping a company answer a question it can't quite crack, or exploring the stranger parts of human experience on a microphone, I'm usually doing some version of the same thing: finding the signal, connecting the dots, and bringing something previously unseen into view.
