WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE BOOK TO READ WHEN YOU NEED WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE BOOK TO READ WHEN YOU NEED A BOOST?⁠ ⁠ Mine is The Alchemist by @paulocoehlo. It’s a deeply inspiring story of a shepherd who travels the world, following his dream. Along the way, he experiences challenges and learns a lot of valuable lessons.⁠ ⁠ Two of my favorite quotes from the book:⁠ ⁠ “And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.” ⁠ ⁠ “There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.” ⁠ ⁠ Which books do you turn to when you could use a pick-me-up?⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #favoritebooks #business #goals #entrepreneurlife #smallbusiness #businessowner #mindset⁠ #inspiration #leadership #highperformance #executivecoaching #success #motivation #entrepreneur #coaching #productivity #mindfulness #career #stressmanagement #mompreneur #success #leader #emotionalintelligence #EQ #softskills⁠

A SNIPPET OF LIFE AS A MOM:⁠ My son is an early A SNIPPET OF LIFE AS A MOM:⁠ My son is an early bird who naturally wakes up every day at 5 a.m. For the past several mornings, he has been waking me up at around 5:45 to tell me very considerately that I can sleep in until 6:15. 😣 Always followed with a sweet, “I love you mom.” I have told him that isn't necessary, and he is happily choosing to ignore me. Ah, the joys of motherhood…⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #momlife #workingmoms #business #goals #entrepreneurlife #smallbusiness #businessowner #mindset⁠ #inspiration #leadership #highperformance #executivecoaching #success #motivation #entrepreneur #coaching #productivity #mindfulness #career #stressmanagement #mompreneur #success #leader #emotionalintelligence #EQ #softskills⁠

SOME THINGS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW ABOUT ME AS A COACH SOME THINGS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW ABOUT ME AS A COACH. You might know that I have a PhD in psychology, but you might be surprised to learn that I have been able to apply my training as a psychologist in a LOT of different ways during my career. In the business world, I’ve worked with people unsure about what career path to take, high-performers who are getting ready for bigger and better things in their careers, people in their first leadership role who are getting their legs underneath them, and CEOs who want to make sure they’re doing all they can to support their people. And, although now, my focus is primarily related to helping people to find fulfillment and success in their professional lives, early on, I also counseled university students, couples, people with serious and persistent mental health issues, and clients with depression, anxiety, ADHD, learning disabilities, eating disorders, and a range of other presenting issues. I’ve taught university courses, conducted workshops for organizations and community groups, and even supervised graduate students who were training to be psychologists. I’ve also done loads of personality testing - both to help people to have a deeper understanding of themselves, and to help organizations to determine if a candidate is likely to be a good fit for a particular role. I even wrote a book, called “The Consummate Leader: a Holistic Guide to Inspiring Growth in Others…and in Yourself.” One of the things I love about my experience is that I’ve had the opportunity to work with SO many different people, while having a lot of variety in terms of the work that I’ve been able to do. It’s incredibly gratifying. What this means for you is you're getting a coach who has a ton of experience working with people from all walks of life with a wide range of goals. It also means I can meet you where you’re at, regardless of what you might be facing in your life. My work is grounded in science, but I’m also deeply spiritual, so if you want to incorporate your own spirituality into your coaching, I’m happy to do that too!

IS THERE A PLACE FOR SPIRITUALITY AT WORK? ⁠ ⁠ IS THERE A PLACE FOR SPIRITUALITY AT WORK? ⁠ ⁠ I work with a lot of clients who would describe themselves as spiritual. They believe in a higher power, or feel that there’s a deep purpose in their lives - something bigger than themselves that is important to their sense of identity and their place in the world. Still, although this might be something that they draw on in their personal lives, when the focus turns to their professional endeavors, exercising spirituality at work often doesn’t even cross their minds. Therefore, a big part of themselves - that brings them such a sense of meaning and renewal - is completely ignored.⁠ ⁠ I get it - business tends to be a very cognitive field. There’s an emphasis on goals, metrics, and empirical data. Still, if your spirituality is something that renews you and gives you strength, why wouldn’t you tap into it when it comes to your career? Check out my latest blog post for more of my thoughts on this issue. Link in bio!.⁠ ⁠ Do you think there's a place for spirituality in business?
