This is a chance to experience coaching with me firsthand. I look forward to learning more about your challenges, dreams, and the coaching goals you may have already identified.  Not exactly sure what your goals are yet? That's ok! We can work together to clarify your goals during our conversation. I will also send you a follow-up email with a list of possible coaching topics that might be helpful. 

During our conversation, I also want to answer any questions you may have about me, coaching, my approach, etc.

So that we can make the most of our time, here are two important questions to consider:

At the end of our conversation, we can explore options for how we might work together if we both feel like it's a match. However, my primary goal during our conversation is to better understand the challenges you're facing and help you clarify the next steps you'd like to take.

How would you describe your coaching style?
My approach blends honest reflection, steady encouragement, and more than 20 years of corporate and nonprofit leadership experience.  I don't offer a performance quick fix or job-search coaching; instead, I help my clients build a life and leadership style that feels whole, purposeful, and deeply their own. 

Who do you love to coach?

I support genuine and generous leaders who often feel undervalued and overcommitted.  I coach high achievers (often self-described perfectionists) who know they want more than career success; they want lives and livelihoods that feel aligned, meaningful, and intentional. My clients are servant leaders who want to untangle what isn’t working, reconnect with their values, and navigate leadership challenges and transitions with clarity and confidence so they can keep making a positive difference. 

Why did you become a coach?
I've experienced so many transitions and leadership challenges in my life (many times all at once!).  In the last fifteen years alone, I’ve gotten divorced and remarried, bought a house, turned forty, had a baby, cared for my elderly in-laws, unexpectedly lost my job, started my first business in the middle of a global pandemic with a toddler at home, and became an ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC)-- whew! 

Some of these experiences were harder than others, but I now get to be the coach I wish I'd had during my various challenges and transitions.  What a gift!   

Are our coaching conversations confidential?

All conversations are completely confidential and bound by the ICF Code of Ethics.
