Coaching offers a powerful pathway to transformation by addressing multiple facets of your journey. It's about aligning with what truly matters to you, clarifying your goals, and providing the support and accountability needed for success — whatever that looks like for you individually. Through coaching, you'll overcome indecisiveness, gain confidence, and shatter the barriers of fear and doubt. This holistic approach recognizes the interconnectedness of your career, family, health, finances, spirituality, etc. offering a tailored strategy that caters to all aspects of your life, ensuring your transformation is not just impactful, but comprehensive. Because how you do anything is how you do everything, love.

Coaching is a partnership between a coach and a client where the coach uses thought-provoking processes that help clients maximize personal and professional potential. Therapy is a relationship between a therapist and client where the therapist diagnoses and/or treats mental illnesses or disorders. Coaching is more future and solution-focused, whereas therapy is generally past and problem-focused. Coaches also empower clients to come up with their own solutions and provide accountability when needed, whereas therapists typically diagnose and provide treatment.

I work with women who know they are meant for more. These women have typically done some personal growth work in the past, but still feel stuck and unfulfilled. They know what they need to do — but have fears, doubts, and blocks getting in their way. Or they have a deeper inner knowing that there is more to life than the way they are currently living, but they don’t have clarity over what that would look like and are unsure of the steps to take to get to there. I work with women in all seasons of life — those in transition, those in motherhood, those in business, those who are climbing the corporate ladder, those who are starting side-hustles, those who are feeling lost, those who are ready to take things to the next level.

Yes! Nowadays, the term “coach” is used very broadly. Some people call themselves coaches even if they’ve never engaged in any formalized training or certification processes. I have invested in and completed formalized training through the Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching, an accredited coach training program by the International Coach Federation (ICF). As an ICF Credentialed coach, I have completed stringent education and experience requirements and have demonstrated a commitment to the highest coaching standards.

I am not the expert on your life, but I can give you the tools and processes, and ask the right questions that ultimately help you go inward to your highest self, who is filled with all of the beautiful guidance you could ever need. Investing in coaching is one of the biggest investments you can make in yourself. By committing to coaching, you’re committing to designing the life you desire.

All sessions are held via Zoom. Holding sessions via Zoom is a powerful way for us to connect with each other, and much of interpersonal communication is nonverbal, so this is a great way for us to have successful and energetic sessions together virtually. Show up makeup free, in your pajamas, or with coffee in your hand - there is no judgement here!
