Imagine what we can do together.

You don't have to go it alone.

 

Hiring a coach is a commitment to taking your work and your business seriously. It's a next step in moving forward towards your goals, rather than treading water and maintaining. Our work together is collaborative; we work in tandem to help you get a better sense of where you can improve and how and what you have the capacity to do more (or less) of. A coach is a gentle blend of a cheerleader and guide.

You can share your ideas, concerns, rants, raves, hopes, fears, dreams, and goals with me. I do my part by actively listening, asking inquiring questions, and reflecting back to you what I hear (or don't hear) you express. I hold the space for you to explore, experiment, question, and discover new pieces of your work, and gently stand alongside you when you find pieces to release, let go of, and move beyond.
