WHAT IS A LIFE COACH?
A Life Coach is someone who supports and guides you while you create and make changes. These changes can be personal or professional, or both.
A coach is different than a therapist. Therapists work with the past and the why's. Coaches work with now, the future, and how. We do talk about how the past affects you, but most of the focus is on who you are today, and who you want your future self to be.
Most importantly, coaching is action-oriented. That means we try things to see what works- and whether it works or doesn't work is an answer. Knowing what you don't want is as important as knowing what you do want.
WHO DO YOU WORK WITH?
I work with people who want to understand themselves better so they can feel more confident and lead happier, more fulfilling lives. You may be frustrated by the big ways your authentic self is missing in your own life. You could feel frustrated or angry more than you used to, sometimes at nothing. You might not even like yourself or who you are. You might not be sure what you want, but you know this isn't it.
You aren't alone. The pressures of modern life can be overwhelming. I know from experience that remembering yourself as an individual (self awareness) can create a sense of inner strength and confidence that makes life feel alive again.
Personal development coaching helps you start to feel like a person and not a robot. You connect with yourself, so you naturally connect with others. You feel like you matter. You love yourself and who you are. And it's such a relief.

CAN'T I JUST FIGURE OUT MY LIFE ON MY OWN?
If you're like me, things make more sense when you think out loud with someone who listens deeply and has your best interests at heart, someone who supports you. You tend to make lasting changes when someone holds you accountable, challenges you, AND gives you the freedom to be curious and try things out.
If that's true for you, then I'm here to guide and support you as you develop and grow who you are.
