What’s it like to work with me?
Here are some basics to know about how I operate…
As a coach, I believe that you are whole, creative & resourceful on your own.
As a parent to three, I bet you’re doing all the things all the time and don’t have a lot of time for you & want you want.
So, I’m not here to tell you what to do or what your life should look like.
I’m here to support you in leaning into your intuition, challenging the stories that are holding you back & to help you focus on wellbeing as a foundation so that everything else that you want in your life, feels possible.
Really, everything.
Who do I work with?
TL;DR: Really cool humans. I bet you’re one of them, too.
If you’re ready to shift something in your life, or maybe even figure out if a shift is right for you, I’m ready to work with you.
I support parents, caregivers, bonus parents, empty nesters or soon to be empty nesters and nurturers alike. You might identify as a high achiever who tends to have perfectionist tendencies. If you’re like me, that includes being a pro at procrastination, too. I won’t tell anyone ;) Maybe you’ve worked your butt off and done all of the ‘right’ things but there’s something missing. Maybe you feel it but don’t even know what it is. Maybe you have big dreams for you and your family and this world but feel really stuck in the day to day. Transforming overwhelm and lack of self-care into clarity and wellbeing are my specialty. From there, we take small steps to change your world for the better.
Ready for a promotion, a new job, a raise, to start a family, find your person or passion, build confidence or start a business? Ready to just find time for you and your wellbeing?
To date, I’ve worked with:
stay-at-home moms who want to transition back to a salaried job
entrepreneurs ready to scale
C Suite executives who want to know what self-care is
mid-level managers and individual contributors who want to improve their leadership skills and not burnout
working moms fresh off of parental leave
and more.
That means I’ve worked with some of the words biggest companies and yet find that there’s a lot to connect us all on a smaller scale. (Think people just like you working for places like Google, Salesforce, HP, Autodesk or even the US Military).
We can do it all. You can do it all.
You don’t have to do it alone.
I believe we need more humans who give a shit taking up space and making the world a better place.
I believe your dreams will make the world a better place.

What is coaching, by the way?
What my clients say…
“… it's specific to each person. A coach is there to listen to your hardship or health problem and reflect. They support you in creating sustainable goals to help you get to a better space. It's about reflecting and asking good questions!” -R.G.
“[Coaching] helps people discover confidence. It helps people realize the answers are inside them, and it's a safe space to be truly seen and heard without judgement..” -B.G.
“Your coach sits on the same side of the table with you looking ahead together. Coaching aims to elucidate what you want for your life and help you bridge the gaps between where you are and where you want to be..” -N.Z.
How is it different than therapy?
Great question! I get that one a lot…
I like to use a visual to describe how coaching and therapy are different (get cozy for a moment with me, will you?):
If you can imagine yourself in a giant boardroom, sitting in the middle of a giant, conference room sized table, a consultant might be at the head of that table.
The consultant will tell you the five things you need to do to get what you want and send you on your way.
A therapist might be on the opposite side of the table from you, also in the middle. With a therapist, you tend to look into the past. Why things are the way they are, why you might react to a certain situation the way you do.
The coach, on the other hand, gets to sit next to you on the same side of the table and with the coach, you look into your future and where you want to be. The coach gets to be support and accountability along the way to get you from where you are to where you want to be. It doesn’t mean we don’t talk about the past and it’s my job to keep things in scope, not yours, so don’t worry about that, either :) It just means that with a good idea of where you’ve been and where you are, you don’t have to get to where you want to go, alone. It also makes getting ‘there’ feel a lot more possible.
Is coaching right for you?

You are welcome here.
To fulfill my mission & vision, I must take into account our society’s systematic inequalities, including those based on race, class, gender, ability, and geography.
I believe in inclusivity & access to wellness tools for all. I’m a part of a building a world where every person can achieve what they choose to pursue without exclusion due to systemic privilege.
Through my scholarship program, it’s my dream to fill in those gaps. Please reach out if you’re interested in learning more.
