Coaching is taking action in your life!
What is coaching?
Identifying your current situation.
Ever feel like you're running the same program on repeat, but suddenly it's not working anymore? Maybe the way you used to handle stress just makes things worse now, or that people-pleasing strategy is leaving you completely drained.
We've all been there—continuing the same patterns because, honestly, what else are we supposed to do? It's like being stuck in a loop where you know something needs to shift, but you're not sure what or how.
Sometimes it shows up as staying in a job that pays the bills but makes you want to hide under your desk by Tuesday. Or you keep attracting the same relationship dynamics and wondering why nothing changes. Other times it's not even that dramatic—you just have this nagging feeling that there's got to be more to life than this.
If any of this sounds familiar, that's exactly where coaching comes in. Because here's the thing: you don't have to figure it out alone.
Working with your whole self.
Here's the thing—you're way more complex than whatever brought you to coaching. We're all these beautifully messy, multi-layered humans, but sometimes we get tunnel vision and only see ourselves through one lens.
That issue you're dealing with? It's usually just the tip of the iceberg. What we're really looking at is how you've been navigating life—which strategies you've been leaning on so hard they're worn out, and which parts of yourself you've been ignoring or underusing.
We work together to get you back into alignment by looking at your whole life, not just the presenting problem. Maybe you're amazing at taking care of everyone else but terrible at advocating for yourself. Or you're a master at planning but struggle to trust your gut. We'll identify where you're overdoing it and where you could use some strengthening, then build practices that help you find that sweet spot of balance.
As we develop these new skills and awareness, something cool happens—that original "stuck" feeling starts to shift, and other areas of your life (relationships, work satisfaction, confidence) often improve too.
You are not in it alone.
Let's be real—diving into personal development takes guts. You're essentially saying "I'm ready to look at all my stuff," which can feel both thrilling and terrifying. Sometimes you'll discover things about yourself that make you go "Oh, that's why I do that!" Other times you might uncover feelings or patterns that are harder to sit with.
Here's what I've learned: this work can be absolutely life-changing, but it's not always easy. You might find yourself questioning relationships that no longer fit, or realizing you're more dissatisfied with certain areas of your life than you thought. Some people hit these uncomfortable truths and bail—because let's face it, staying stuck can feel safer than facing the mess.
That's where having a coach comes in. I'm your safe space to process whatever comes up, your cheerleader when you need encouragement, and your gentle push when you're ready to step outside your comfort zone. I'm also your accountability partner and your shoulder to lean on when things get heavy. Because this journey? You don't have to walk it alone.
What coaching is not.
Let's clear up some common confusion. Coaching isn't therapy. While we might touch on your past to understand current patterns, we're not diving deep into analyzing childhood trauma or treating mental health conditions like depression or anxiety. We're focused on where you are now and where you want to go. (And if you're already working with a therapist, coaching can actually be a great complement to that work.)
Coaching also isn't consulting. I'm not here to swoop in with a magic solution or tell you exactly what to do—because honestly, that wouldn't serve you in the long run. You're the expert on your own life. My job is to help you build the skills and self-awareness to navigate challenges on your own, even after our work together ends. We're creating sustainable growth, not quick fixes. I'm here to help you access that inner wisdom you already have, ask the right questions, and develop the capacity to trust yourself. We're in this together, but you're the one holding the compass.
