Minneapolis, United States
15 years experience
Hello, I'm Sonja! Your houseplant-obsessed, pastry-loving, super organized online BFF.
I'm a board certified health and wellness coach (NBC-HWC) who brings 15 years of experience in coaching, behavior change, and project management systems to people who want to change their lives. My professional experience includes:
→ Building products that apply behavior change science
→ Leading learning and development initiatives for large coaching teams
→ Teaching coaching skills to over 200 new health coaches
→ Setting up project management systems for teams of 1-1,000
→ Consulting with CEOs and executive teams
→ Over 5,000 hours of 1:1 and group coaching experience across private practice, small business, and corporate wellness
I’ve spent the last decade studying how humans change, how habits truly stick, how identity evolves, and how people can ditch self-limiting beliefs and finally make their dreams a reality. I’ve invested tens of thousands of hours in becoming exceptional at helping people change their lives through the power of coaching, and the depth of that experience allows me to tailor every layer of my coaching framework to your specific story.
When I'm not coaching, consulting, or teaching, you can find me:
→ Hiking in the mountains
→ Snapping photos of everyday moments
→ Reading next to an open window with a mug of tea
→ Listening to a podcast while walking my dogs
→ Advocating for environmental policy changes that protect people and the planet
→ Experiencing gratitude for the simple things in life
→ Watering my 50 houseplants or propagating tiny new plants
→ Searching for the best pastries all over the world (if you know of a good bakery, please tell me about it!)
