My Story

Hello You!

If you're checking out “My Story” it's likely because something I posted or said struck a chord, and made you curious to know more about who I am as a coach and a human being.

Full disclosure, I have been working through my mid-life awakening and all it entails for about the last 5 years. My goal in my business and my life is to help other women recognize the beginning signs so they can heed the call they are receiving from their heart and soul and transition to a more fulfilling life.

Becoming a coach has been a part of what my heart asked me to do, and considering I have always been someone who people randomly tell their problems to in middle of grocery stores or on the street, it makes complete sense that it would become my calling to support others through difficult times.

What were the things that helped me see it was time to start listening to that call?

👉 I became dissatisfied with 60-70+ hour weeks and started envisioning what I might want my day to look like moving forward.

👉 I started noticing my attempts at doing everything to “make” everyone else in my life happy wasn’t actually working, and finally understood that I have not control over others.

👉 I began having major physical problems because I wasn’t taking care of myself and had to find ways to put myself and my health first.

👉 I witnessed my best friend pass two months after a diagnosis of cancer and became acutely aware that I needed to stop putting everything in my life off until “later”.

The fact is that our Values change as we get older. We might start out in life focused on making money, having a partner or a family, creating a home, or finding a career that suits our capabilities. Then as you get to this point in life you begin to question if you really wanted these things at all.

If you're feeling this right now, some of the indicators I experienced above might sound familiar. So now what?

For one, let's ditch the label of "crisis" and try on the idea of "awakening", because that is truly what is happening. You are waking up to a new way of being in life.

Then, it's time to dig into the Values you've been living by to see what has changed, because I'm betting that something definitely has.

Until you define the principles you WANT to live by now, the feelings of wanting to run away from everything in your life are going to continue.

That's where I can be of help.

I have the experience of living this, AND a deep love for helping others find what they WANT in life and see them make it happen. It literally brings tears of joy to my eyes without fail every damn time. So let’s see what might be possible for you.

I know that for me, bringing awareness to what I truly wanted in my life had the following effects:

💃 I stopped fearing what people might say about me, and began caring more about how I felt about myself.

💃 I learned what I did (and did not) have control over, and began taking responsibility for my own happiness.

💃 I began to embrace the TRUTH, that I have always been ENOUGH, and that fear should no longer hold me back.

💃 I found my purpose. Coaching women (like you) who are ready to live a life that brings a fulfilling sense of joy.


So my question to you is, when will you be ready to shine your light?

Aren’t you tired of fighting through your days and feeling like you want to run screaming from your life?

My guess is that you are, and the pain of trying to avoid what you’re experiencing is becoming more and more difficult to bear.

So if you are READY to do the work, and begin the QUEST of your life, I offer myself to you as a partner for your journey. My coaching style provides you some solace from all the external noise and gives you the space to think about YOU. If you’re looking for a quick fix I am NOT your coach, because learning how to address the beliefs and the fears of choosing YOU is a journey not a destination. The good news is, the more awareness we create together about who you are and what you want, the easier the trek will become and the more you will experience the joyful lightness and Peace that comes from BEING your authentic self.

MY COACHING METHODS

I graduated from Naropa University, with a BA in Contemplative Psychology, and pursued my coaching studies through the International Coaching Federation (ICF) Accredited school of iPEC (Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching). My base approach to coaching connects the Buddhist principles of my Contemplative Psychology degree with the amazing tools I learned through my extensive coach training at iPEC.  The result is that I provide a safe non-judgmental space for you to observe and discuss the way you perceive your world.  This process creates new awareness of the thoughts that have kept you from seeing a wealth of opportunities and choices. You’ll be amazed at what all has been patiently waiting for you to be ready.
