"I love helping individuals and leaders to apply their strengths creatively and courageously to advance their careers, health, and joy. They become highly satisfied with their life, strengthening their performance, relationships, and wellbeing! Clients build mindsets, behaviors, and skills such as:
- Influence, recognition, promotions, confidence, joy, peace, fun, passion, enthusiasm, and love
- Work-life balance, focus, boundaries, self-compassion, and relationships, productivity, delegation, collaboration, teams, and motivation.
- Replacing habits like stress, procrastination, judgement, social media use, over spending with habits like exercising, healthy eating, meditation, sleep routines, decluttering, etc.
- Decreasing burnout and conflict while improving alignment, execution, systems, strategic planning.
- Clarifying Values and goals answering questions like: Imagine your life in 1, 5, 10 years. What is in it? Who are you surrounded by? What are you passionate about? What do you cherish? How do you spend your time?
- Overcoming limiting beliefs such as perfectionism, self doubt, imposter syndrome, people pleasing, workaholism, scarcity/life is hard, and more.
I’m a project manager at heart. I'm outcome oriented and customer focused. My style is calm, direct, exploratory, and celebratory. I listen for unique perspectives, needs, goals, and assumptions to discover root causes of problems. I use proven processes to create systemic, sustainable change. My approach to coaching very fluid and customized to each individual.
I’m scientific and spiritual. Science and research provide proven, replicable methodologies for improving life. While some universal truths apply to most humans, everyone is unique. My clients and I partner to create a hypothesis of what will work for them, test it, learn, and pivot as needed. We each have a unique relationship with spirituality, and I am very comfortable supporting people in this way as well. I find that as my clients connect more deeply with the best part of themselves, life becomes so much easier and more joyful.
My experiences give me tremendous faith in what my clients can create for themselves.
Over my 30+ year career I've managed projects, teams and organizations to increase their profitability and effectiveness. I lead teams to envision what's possible, unearth root causes of issues, resolve conflicts, strengthen collaboration and communication, and implement solutions to create step changes. I've done this with Procter & Gamble, Essendant, school districts, non-profits, a law firm, and an IT business.
I've been happily married for 30 years and have two wonderful sons. I love psychology, business, science, health, fitness, cooking, skiing, hiking, and gardening. I've won Toastmasters speech competitions, successfully transitioned careers and industries, overcome shyness and chronic pain, managed multiple interstate moves, and reentered the workforce after staying home with my children.
I have a BS in Psychology, a MBA in Marketing, formal leadership training through the Center for Creative Leadership as well as Six Sigma Green Belt and Neuroscience training. I've earned four coaching certifications and am pursuing two additional certifications. I read extensively on communication, negotiation, leadership, and mindfulness. Currently I'm doing a deeper dive on strategy.
I’ve come to believe that my purpose in life is to be joyful and open to possibilities. As my ability to do that grows, my ability to help others do this grows too. This is how I make a difference in the world."
Your mind is your best friend. But it can also be your worst enemy. Your mind is constantly sabotaging your potential for both performance and happiness. All your negative emotions, including stress, are the result of self-sabotage. Build Powerful Habits for a Positive Mind. Most attempts a positive change fail because we stop at insight and don't build habits. Sustained change towards a more positive mind requires laying down neural pathways to form new habits through consistent daily practice. And that's what this program is designed to do. Our PQ Program grows your three core mental fitness muscles within six weeks. Breakthrough app delivers personalized daily practices that result in powerful new habits for a positive mind. Daily Practice - 15 minutes/day of app-guided practice enables you to establish mental muscles (neural pathways). These exercises are bite-sized to fit your busy schedule and customized based on how you self-sabotage. Weekly hour-long video delivers deep experiential exploration of the week's focus. You'll feel inspired and energized to practice during the week in order to sustain the benefits experienced during the video sessions. Community Support through the app as well as coaching support.
A revolutionary emotional processing system that leverages body awareness and imagination to dip below logic and dissolve the root cause of issues, core beliefs, and distorted thinking. The RIM® process uses imagination and body awareness to illuminate the root cause of an issue. Once identified, emotional memory can be regenerated to be positive and affirming. Our emotional memories and factual memories are stored in different parts of the brain. While the intellectual mind still knows what actually happened (you don't get amnesia), we redo history in terms of our body's memory, resulting in a new empowering emotional interpretation. RIM®, discovered by Dr. Deborah Sandella, is validated by the latest neuroscience findings. In research specifically applying RIM® techniques, participates had a significant reduction in the hallmark symptoms of stress-related illness and experienced increase in their quality of life. RIM® has been likened to psychedelics in terms of effectiveness and experience with the added benefit of no drugs and remaining in complete control.
In today's workplace, we all know that soft skills make or break a leader. As a Professional Certified Executive and Well-Being Habits Coach, I help leaders and high potentials develop key soft skills and create habits and routines to support their careers and life. My clients build stronger relationships and teams, get recognized and promoted, have more time for family and personal passions, and improve their health, confidence, and joy! You are in the best position to develop your own solution and plan. I help you get there by: - Asking thought provoking questions, pointing out what I'm observing, helping you synthesize and clarify your thoughts. - Sharing targeted tools, ideas, articles, videos, and other resources to help you reach your goals. - Designing "homework" that blends easily into your work and life so between sessions you can learn what works best for you as you start to develop new skills and habits. - Helping you celebrate your strengths and growth. Clients often come with several goals. We identity and address the core issues. Then other issues often disappear or can be handled with ease.
Still need more clarity? Here are answers to some commonly asked questions.
Why work with you instead of reading a book?
I've worked with hundreds of individuals on time management. I've seen what works well in different situations and with different challenges (too many responsibilities, ADHD, distractions, lack of boundaries, difficulty delegating, etc.). Coaching with me helps clients get results much faster and in a sustainable fashion.
What if I don't have time to do the work between sessions?
If you are looking for help with time management, I assume you are already very busy and don't have time to add much more in. We will discuss what is realistic for you to do. From week to week, we learn what works and doesn't work for you, so you come away with a set of tools that work for your unique situation without adding administrative burden from the tools themselves.
