Program structure

1. Reset Program Structure

Button

Reset is a short-term coaching engagement consisting of six one-to-one sessions. Sessions are intentionally focused and paced to support clarity, decision-making, and forward movement around a defined issue.


Early sessions focus on clarifying the specific issue or decision to be addressed and identifying what matters most right now.


Subsequent sessions are used to work through that focus area, explore options, address obstacles, and refine direction as insight develops.


The engagement concludes with a clear wrap-up, consolidating learning and clarifying next steps aligned with the client’s current readiness.


Throughout the Reset engagement, coaching remains focused and responsive rather than following a fixed sequence or preset program.

"

I’m an executive leader turned health and leadership coach, blending 20+ years in public service with evidence-based mind-body wellness. I help people strengthen their center—clarity, confidence, and wellbeing—so they can navigate life and leadership with more purpose and ease. My clients come to me for support with health, stress, clarity, and personal growth, and often discover they leave with a deeper sense of alignment in every area of their lives.

 

My Style

 

Calm, thoughtful, steady, and deeply supportive. I help clients feel grounded and safe while exploring meaningful change. I ask strong questions, simplify complex situations, and offer a blend of compassion and clarity. My style empowers you to reconnect with your center so you can move forward with confidence and ease.

 

My Approach

 

My coaching blends executive-level insight, whole-person health coaching, and a calm, grounded presence. I help clients slow down internally so they can see themselves clearly, make strong decisions, and build habits that support their wellbeing. My approach is collaborative and compassionate—rooted in deep listening, curiosity, and practical tools that create real change without adding pressure.

Podcast

 

I host a podcast called The Unmuted Voices of Leaders with another friend / colleague / coach with a city executive background, Kellye Mazzoli. Together we talk through struggles and offer a way forward. We aim to unravel the professional muting that keeps city executives isolated and show other leaders they don’t’ have to carry everything in complete silence.

FAQs

Still need more clarity? Here are answers to some commonly asked questions.

Is this therapy?

Button

No. This is a coaching engagement focused on reflection, clarity, goal-setting, and forward-moving change. It does not replace therapy, counseling, medical care, or mental health treatment.

What if I don't know exactly what I want to work on yet?

Button

That’s completely okay. Many clients begin without a clear focus. Part of the coaching process is clarifying what matters most and identifying meaningful areas to work on together.

Is there a set program, curriculum, or worksheet-based system?

Button

No. This is personalized, one-on-one coaching. Sessions are guided by the client’s goals, priorities, and needs rather than a fixed program or prescribed materials.

Do I need to prepare for sessions or complete work between sessions?

Button

There is no required preparation. Some clients choose to reflect or take action between sessions, but this is shaped collaboratively and kept realistic. There are some upfront minimal assessments when we begin our work together.

What kind of topics can we work on?

Button

Coaching topics vary by individual and may include health, stress, leadership, decision-making, boundaries, transitions, values, or overall life direction. The focus is determined together.

What happens at the end of the coaching package?

Button

Toward the end of the engagement, we review progress and clarify next steps. Some clients choose to continue coaching; others take what they’ve gained and move forward independently. There is no obligation to continue.

How do I know if this is a good fit?

Button

A free discovery call is offered to explore fit, answer questions, and ensure this coaching engagement aligns with your needs before committing.

How are sessions held?

Button

Sessions are held virtually via video call. Details are shared after enrollment.

What if I need to reschedule?

Button

Life happens. Sessions can be rescheduled with reasonable notice. Ongoing or last-minute cancelations may limit availability, so consistency is encouraged. The contract between client and coach will provide more information about cancelations and rescheduling.

Is everything we discuss confidential?

Button

Yes. Coaching conversations are confidential, except where disclosure is required by law.
