About
What’s worse than having all of this inspiration, experience, and vision but not being able to consistently put them into action that creates a meaningful difference?
Basically nothing.
It’s a little unhinging to think about: We’re over-achievers who feel like failures at life. Advanced degrees, natural talent, assets, and advantages out your ears but that’s just what it looks like from the outside.
Inside? It hurts to see where we think we should be. We’re anxious. We’re insecure. We can’t figure out how to stop not being “enough” or doing “enough.” And when we do get a win, all it really means is we have to move the goal post out a little further.
And deep down - we just want to feel calm and happy.
So what keeps getting in our way?
What is that missing piece that’s just out of reach that keeps us stressed out and running around?
Doing things for reasons we don’t like.
And why do we do that?
Our values are conflicting.
Why?
Because your ambition has evolved.
Get rid of the noise and the constantly reactive status quo.
How?
Learn how to really listen to yourself to clarify what you want.
Decide that you’re ready and which answer feels best on how to get there.
Show up for yourself by taking action that feels good until it’s done.
This is more than just believing “you’re worth it.”
This is you showing up for yourself.
*That “for yourself bit” can be kind of a stretch at first - especially if you’re used to putting everyone else’s needs ahead of your own.
How do I know what you’re going through and what you need?
This tapestry of experiences has perfectly equipped me to help you in this process.
From coming up in an Air Force get-it-done-no-matter-what family, to running three businesses concurrently, serving as a project manager for non-profits and leading end-of-life caregiver research, having a series of miscarriages, being a consultant in the Fortunes, and stressing to the point where I nearly quit, I’ve been in the trenches of burnout. It’s when I became a corporate leaders’ consigliere and behind closed doors, those titans of industry shared that they felt like failures, like they were never enough. That’s when it clicked.
We torture ourselves and keep ourselves stuck when we don’t understand how our thoughts work.
But (not news)…
Knowing and doing are two very different things.
I even coach psychologists who know the theory inside and out but stop short of applying it in their lives. This is where coaching comes in.
Taking what you know, from all of those courses, degrees, and experiences, and using it to make a real and lasting difference in your life.
You see, it wasn’t until I learned about coaching and how to coach myself that I was able to put my psychology training together with my real-life experiences, rewire my brain, and put my values intentionally into pride of place in my work and personal life.
The result is clarity. Ease of focus. Simplified boundaries and decision making that’s drama-free.
Life makes more sense and is so much more joyful. Not just because I’m centered and confident, but because I get to teach mission-driven leaders like you the tools for their own focus and clarity.
All the while, I’m back in my home-base just outside of Mobile, Alabama, where my hubs and I have our kiddos and 14-year old puppy in tow.
So, let’s level up your life and work, shall we?
