Career + Wellness Coaching
Encouraging women to pursue life with confidence, ambition, and grace…
With over twenty years of experience in Corporate America spanning three different industries, I have successfully navigated rising the ranks through marriage, motherhood, and caretaking. While my journey might sound smooth and glamorous, it has been hard work filled with unexpected challenges, including moments where I felt like the biggest imposter in the room. I have learned that women can be their own worst enemy. This is why I am passionate about helping other women find their way to realizing and achieving their dreams.
Whether you’re navigating a career transition, striving for the next promotion, dealing with a workplace challenge, or wanting to establish better work and life balance, I partner with my clients to define a framework and action plan to achieve their goals. I bring extensive experience and professionalism to every situation and customize my support as a coach to your individual needs and concerns.
My coaching style focuses on personal and professional development aimed at creating awareness, generating action, and facilitating learning and growth. My goal is to help you develop and sustain new perspectives, attitudes, skills, and behaviors in realizing the life of your dreams.
Areas of Practice
Career Advancement & Transitions
The “Great Resignation” is not a myth, with corporations experiencing a record number of openings. Mid-career employees are reevaluating what work-life looks like to them. If this is you, then transition coaching is the perfect fit for you.
I lead my clients through a creative discovery process, providing insights and guidance during a challenging time. I teach skills critical to managing a transition and prioritizing self-care. As a career coach, I work with people going through significant transitions, such as changing careers, starting a family, or other life changes, to help clarify your intentions and set you on a career and life alignment path.
Leadership & Management Coaching
Are you looking to enhance your executive presence or improve your communication style to achieve the next level of performance? Are you working through a challenging project or need assistance partnering with different personality types? Leadership coaching is a customized and personalized approach for individual leaders that enhances their performance and helps them achieve short-term and long-term organizational goals at any leadership level. I partner closely with my clients to hone in on a specific action plan to achieve performance goals and help them show up as their best selves at work.
Health & Wellness Coaching
Have you felt like you are in a health rut, particularly since the start of the Pandemic? You are not alone. In fact, your overall happiness and wellbeing is a direct result of your habits and outlook. It is hard to name a single person whose habits or outlook have not been impacted in the last two years!
A poor diet and in-active lifestyle are common coping strategies to provide relief from stress and bad feelings. Since the start of the pandemic, Gallup polls show Americans are getting less exercise and have a worse diet.
If this is you, I can help. As a wellness coach, I serve as a supportive guide who helps clients set health goals, whether to lose weight, improve energy, better manage stress, and much more. In addition to being a mentor who holds clients accountable, I support my clients in enacting sustainable and positive behavioral lifestyle changes.
