“The meaning of life is to find your gift.
The purpose of life is to give it away.”
- Pablo Picasso
Coaching the Whole Self
As time has passed and technology has progressed, we have found ourselves valuing our minds more and more: the ability to think strategically, qualitatively, and expansively has certainly helped us to evolve and continue to innovate. Our minds ARE valuable, and at the same time the majority of our Western world has learned to rely too heavily on them. We follow the rules society has laid down for us and we forget to tend to our own needs; we lose our balance.
We have forgotten what it is to listen to our Whole Selves.
I work with you so you can remember how to listen to your mind and body as one, so you can find your gifts and live your purpose. In a coaching session, especially one with a focus on the presence of your Whole Self, I get to fully hear you, and to help you hear yourself. And sometimes, magic happens.
I know that getting there can be tough. Undertaking a coaching journey asks of us a sometimes-scary level of vulnerability that can be uncomfortable to face. If you can surrender to that, it has the potential to open an entire new world of possibilities that involves every part of your being - mind, body and spirit.
As your mind learns to sink into your body to align with your spirit, this practice creates an impetus for movement, a need to take that next step.
Where do you imagine it could lead?

The Coaching Journey
The ICF, whose coaches adhere strictly to the ICF Code of Ethics, defines coaching as “partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential.” In short, we spend time together for you to work towards a goal or dream through exploration, brainstorming, problem-solving, strategizing, and discovery. The coaching partnership is all about YOU and your goals.
Dream
Coaching provides you with dedicated time and space to dive into a thought, an idea, a dream. This exploration allows you to stretch your imagination while ignoring limitations. You decide where and how far you want to go.
Design
Once you understand the possibilities before you and the direction you wish to take, we look at your options to see how you’d like to move forward. Together we determine actionable steps that help you progress towards your goals.
Do
You’ve dared to dream, and started designing a strategy for how to attain that dream. You’ve realized that you have the ability to create the life you want to live. All that’s left is to plan for keeping yourself accountable.
