Do you feel different on the inside than how you portray yourself to others?

Have you ever felt unloved or are you in a relationship that isn’t giving you what you need?

Have you ever asked yourself, “Is this all there is?” or  

“Why is this happening to me?”

I have navigated these questions at different points in my life, and perhaps you have too.

I urge you not to wait for the metaphorical two-by-four to hit you upside the head or become so stressed out that you land in the hospital, which both have what happened to me.

I ignored that subtle voice trying to guide me to slow down, to heed the messages my body was conveying, and to reconnect with myself. I didn’t listen to the whispers, “No, not that…yes, this” until they became so loud I had no choice but to listen.

Through my journey, including my training as a Certified Professional Life Coach (PCC) and as a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP), I discovered the profound importance of tuning into our intuition and the signals our bodies send. Building a relationship with our nervous system can guide us toward our true path. Once I began to embrace the inner wisdom and heal from my past, my life started falling into place. I reclaimed my health, my self-worth, and the strength to and the power to unapologetically be me.

If you choose to work together, we will explore the areas of your life that you wish to transform, seeking greater balance, joy, and fulfillment. We’ll delve into your hopes, dreams, and unmet desires, tapping into the wisdom of your body so you can cultivate a relationship with it, rather than dismiss its messages. This practice can help you relish the positive aspects of your life, prioritize what truly matters, and create space for what you’ve always desired, ultimately leaving you feeling more at ease and joyful.

That sounds like a refreshing change…


Is it selfish to want more out of life? I believe that we all deserve gratification in our lives. It doesn’t matter if you’re an awesome stay-at-home mom who keeps your family together or a career-minded woman—perhaps you’re balancing both. You may be searching for that elusive happiness that slipped away somewhere between diaper changes and your kids’ high school graduation.

 What I do for my clients…

I will bring to our sessions my coaching training with Martha Beck, my somatic training, my experience as the CEO and COO of my family, and the wisdom I gained after I stopped ignoring my intuition and developed a relationship with my body and nervous system. As your coach, I will help you get from where you are today to where you want to be. Between my coaching and somatic training, energy work, attachment strategies, I have developed the tools and confidence to help you find your way to peace—to regulate your nervous system, quiet your mind and gain clarity and insight about your most pressing issue(s). Exploring the topics you bring to our sessions will begin to develop a path that will lead you to your dreams and desires.

I also bring a somatic piece to my coaching. Somatic means a body-oriented therapeutic approach. The word somatic comes from the Greek word soma, which means “body.” Somatic healing therapies fall within the spectrum of mind-body therapies and specifically refer to the therapies that work with a bottom-up approach. Peter Levine, PhD is the developer of Somatic Experiencing®, a naturalistic and neurobiological approach to nervous system regulation and healing trauma.

Somatic healing resolves symptoms of stress, shock, and trauma that can accumulate in your body and nervous system. When you are stuck in patterns of fight, flight, or freeze, somatic exercises can help you develop more resilience and create a greater capacity to be with the discomfort instead of pushing it away.

Weaving somatic healing exercises into my coaching allows you to connect with your body more deeply. It helps you feel the sensations in your body, use guided imagery, observe your responses, understand how you show up to the outside world, and make meaning of it so you no longer stay stuck in old patterns.

I also provide a welcoming space so you feel safe to tell your truths, even those you've been afraid to tell anyone else. You'll have a moment to breathe and have a place to not “do” anything if that’s what you choose. Together, we’ll take small steps each week so you can find more happiness in your sometimes turbulent life. Over time these small steps will add up to big changes.

When you gift yourself this time, you’ll discover more focus, creativity, resilience, presence, and happiness in your life. You’ll learn to let go of the unimportant details that used to bog you down, so you can feel closer to yourself and your loved ones.

Reading self-help books is another way to set goals and get inspired. I’ve read many: The Untethered Soul, The Power of Now, Braving the Wilderness, The Four Agreements, Waking the Tiger: Healing Trauma, Attached, and many more. I’ve taken away nuggets from each one, but sometimes you need a compassionate witness to support you on your journey.

Time is a valuable commodity, and having the right support can keep you moving toward the life you were meant to live.

If any of these challenges resonate with you, schedule an inquiry call today so I can answer your questions and discuss how we might work together.

I look forward to connecting with you!!
