TIME IS FLEETING. This isn’t morbid, it’s true TIME IS FLEETING. This isn’t morbid, it’s true. If there’s anything that the past year has taught us, it’s that we just don’t know what the future will bring. ⁠
⁠
Life is precious. Our time is valuable.⁠
⁠
And while as an executive coach, I can always give you a great productivity tip (or forty), the truth is that I think that at its core, life satisfaction is less about what we’re doing, and more about who we’re being. ⁠
⁠
Trust me, I’ve worked with a ton of successful people who are getting boatloads of stuff done. They’re hitting their business goals out of the park, and are handsomely rewarded for it. But, at the same time, they might feel anything from a mild sense of ennui to deep unhappiness. They might feel like their lives lack meaning - or that something is missing.⁠
⁠
Why? ⁠
⁠
Sometimes it’s because they’re so busy that they’re not fully present enough to even recognize and appreciate all the good that they have in their lives. ⁠
⁠
Sometimes it’s because they wish they were doing something else - but instead they’re living their lives based on others’ expectations. ⁠
⁠
Sometimes it’s because they’ve tied up all of their identity to one aspect of themselves (their work and their accomplishments), and as a result, feel the constant pressure to do more to prove their worthiness to themselves and others. ⁠
⁠
All of these approaches might “work” on the surface, but underneath it, there can be a gnawing sense that something is awry. We might do our best to ignore those internal nudges, but they’re still there - prodding us to explore what those feelings might be trying to tell us. ⁠
⁠
If you’re human and paying attention, you’ve probably experienced moments of feeling a desire for more - a yearning to get in touch with your authentic needs so that you can share more of that with the world. ⁠

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.” ⁠
⁠

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…⁠

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!
