It is my mission to help you on your journey of self-discovery and personal growth.
Who am I?
What do I want out of life?
What do I have to give?
How do I reengage life after a painful or unexpected experience?
Is there a deeper spiritual meaning to my life and the world I live in?
Stuck or unsure?
Lonely or out of place?
Confused or distracted?
Ready for significant change?
The need for community and spiritual connection?
A stronger sense of self?
A spiritual life untethered to traditional religious beliefs and institutions?
A sense of purpose and meaning in life?
To show up more authentically in all (or specific) areas in your life?
To live with more clarity, intentionality, joy, and inner peace?
I love working with anyone dedicated to living an intentional life. I am especially passionate about supporting the spiritual journey of clients out of harmful, limiting beliefs & experiences and into a life of authenticity, clarity, and joy. In alignment with this, I find it invaluable to approach our time holistically and with psychological nuances in mind, while honoring my boundary as a coach.
Regardless of your profession or season of life – a CEO, CTO, doctor, college student, engineer, single parent, spiritual pilgrim, etc. – I am invested in your desire to engage with your deeper Self and how that Self wants to move in the world.
"A life aligned,
is a life fully lived."
Together, we will identify your inner wealth and external resources as a foundation for your journey towards greater self-awareness and fulfillment. Building life momentum around the exploration of personal needs, values, and goals as well as naming what may stand in the way is key to any life coaching journey. Along with this, my hope is to offer context and support for an intersection of psychology, spirituality, and creativity that a client finds personally refreshing and strategic.
Life coaching is a professional partnership between a certified coach and an individual client focused on helping the client identify and achieve their goals and maximize their potential in all areas of life.
It provides personalized support and feedback from a trained coach to help clients identify and achieve meaningful goals related to any area of life they feel drawn to explore.
The coach asks powerful questions, provides helpful observations, and offers tools and techniques that are intended to serve the client agenda for each session.
Rather than starting with advice, coaches encourage and help clients uncover their own insights, motivations, and solutions through self-discovery.
Coaching sessions allow focused time to discuss challenges, explore options, create action plans, establish accountability, and track progress.
Good coaches assist clients in developing new perspectives, overcoming limiting beliefs, changing habits, and maximizing strengths.
The coaching relationship is a partnership with the client that is dedicated to exploring their self-efficacy and agendas in a way that contrasts with consulting, counseling, or mentoring.
Coaching is typically focused more on the present and future rather than the past, and targets specific goals versus diagnosing and treating mental health issues. Strictly speaking, the latter is a domain only for a licensed mental health clinician.
While it is impossible to be completely unbiased, the coach does everything they can to step into and serve the client’s world rather than trying to nudge the client towards the preferences of the coach.
The coach is motivated by and accountable to the science of emotional health and human fulfillment but does so in a manner that prioritizes what the client wants out of life.
Stay accountable
Having to report back to your coach helps motivate you and keeps you accountable for following through on your stated goals and commitments. The magic of coaching is predicated on a continual exploration of what keeps a client inspired by and committed to their goals.
Develop strategies and action plans
Life coaches are skilled at helping you map out practical steps to bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be. How growth can look in various areas of life is an exciting strategizing exercise and is foundational to any coaching relationship.
Get unbiased perspective
Few people experience a shortage of advice (friends, family, pastor’s, gurus, motivational speakers/resources, the internet, etc.). Coaching is unique in that it functions as a nonbiased curiosity regarding a client’s experiences and can even help sift through the myriad of data or advice the client is being drawn towards.
Build confidence
The coaching process is designed to empower you, validate your strengths, and build self-assurance in your abilities. The ethos of good life coaching orbits around two powerful perspectives: the client is the expert of their life, and they have considerable strength and courage to move that life forward in whatever way they choose.
Work through transitions
Whether it’s a career change, relationship issue, or life phase, a coach helps you navigate transitions smoothly. Life is full of change and life coaching leans into that change with the client to explore the power of choice, freedom, and movement.
