Christie Tagliavia is a reinvention advisor, speaker, and founder of The Rebuild Method, helping people navigate the space between the life they’ve outgrown and the one they want to build.

Her work centers on a question she has had to answer herself: Who could you become if your past stopped making your decisions?

After surviving abuse, decades of bullying, and debilitating anxiety, Christie spent much of her life hiding behind her story—afraid of being seen, judged, or defined by what she had experienced.

When she began sharing it, she discovered that the experiences she had kept private opened the door to connection, meaningful relationships, and conversations she might otherwise never have had.

That discovery became a driving force in her work.

Christie became fascinated by people’s stories: the journey before the success, the beliefs they had to question, the patterns they had to change, and the obstacles they had to overcome to become who they wanted to be. She wanted to understand what happens between imagining a different life and becoming the person capable of building it.

Through The Rebuild Method, Christie brings lived experience, candid reflection, and practical direction to the work of reinvention. Her advisory sessions, workshops, and digital tools help people recognize what is keeping them stuck, rebuild trust in their judgment, and turn self-awareness into meaningful action. Her work speaks to those emerging from difficult seasons, navigating major transitions, or realizing that a life that looks successful can still feel disconnected from who they are.

As host of Your Secret Podcast, Christie brings that curiosity to the human stories behind extraordinary success. In conversations with founders, leaders, and entrepreneurs, she explores what a résumé cannot reveal: the private doubts, difficult decisions, personal sacrifices, and moments of reinvention that shaped the person behind the achievement. She asks the questions that help others recognize themselves in someone else’s journey—and see new possibilities in their own.

That belief in connection and possibility also drives The Wealth Collective, the nonprofit she founded to bring people together, create meaningful opportunities, and support the next generation of entrepreneurs through scholarships.

Across her speaking, advisory work, interviews, and community building, Christie explores what it takes to stop hiding, challenge an inherited identity, and build a life with intention.

The question at the heart of it all: What becomes possible when the story you once hid becomes the starting point for the life you choose?
