Hi I'm Cheryl, and this is my story.

 

At the age of 22 I was anything but happy. The "welcome to the real world" congratulatory remarks everyone kept giving me after graduating from college made my skin crawl. So much, that instead of going out and celebrating, I went back to my room, laid on my bed and had a full on panic attack.  I had so many questions and emotions over the next six months: "Did I miss something?" "Is this a joke?" "What did I just spend the last four years doing?" "This is not what I thought I would feel like after college." " These cubicle walls are closing in on me." "Is there a life course I can take - ASAP?" "Who has the cliff notes to life?" and my favorite, "WHO LIED TO ME."

 

It wasn't until I made my first student loan payment that I went on a sheer mission to ensure young adults following along a similar path never felt this way.

 

I've spent the last 20 years coaching myself through the rollercoaster of my 20s and 30s, working with some of the best mentors that helped me navigate life in a smart way. I live by the quote, "You will never live long enough to make all the mistakes." So I asked all the questions and got all the answers, sometimes even from strangers.  

​

I've successfully navigated break-ups to glow ups, wholeness in my singleness, accountability, self-awareness, boundaries, adulting, hard conversations with parents, mindset shifts around self-acceptance, core and limiting beliefs, confidence, and recently, grief.

 

I created a company called Bloom Haus, which houses my coaching practice. It's the culmination of my life experiences and the vast tools I've gained professionally as a project manager/consultant, and now life coach, in the Washington DC Metro Area.
