Why Work With Me?
There is no manual for life:
- No Single Right way of doing things,
- No Perfect Path...educational knowledge, tools, or training
- each person must choose and
- be accountable to choices in order to grow.
- Then…Your success in your life becomes measured in meaning.
I don’t believe in the impossible…
Together we create possibilities. When my clients find they have done the impossible thing…the journey and fun really begins. I bring the tools, support, positive energy, optimism, and unwavering passionate belief in you. You are the magic that is your Hero Story and Self-Actualization Journey.
Why people really
(Enjoy) to work with me…
It’s my belief that why clients really enjoy having me as their coach is that I bring crazy, eccentricity, and weirdness to the table.
- When everything you are doing isn’t working, sometimes the Crazy Choice is the most appealing.
As their coach is my own mindsets, uniqueness, and endless positive energy that I bring to the table transforms the table into a fun creative game.
Professionally Grounded “By the Books Coaching” people work with me…to create movement.
If you are burnt out, exhausted, losing hope…
having challenges:
→ Getting to the goals you intended to hit
→ Escaping the firefighting mode you are in
→ Making bigger moves slowly, and foolish moves quickly
It’s likely because you haven’t “had the time” to be very clear and intentional on what your intentions are and understand the roadmap to reaching them.
I help clients create more time in your life, recover & restore lost energy and develop new ways to generate energy
With a focus on actionable insights and measurable outcomes, I provide the tools and guidance necessary to drive meaningful progress and achieve your goals. My commitment is to empower you with the skills and confidence to navigate complexities and seize opportunities, ensuring that you not only meet but exceed your objectives.
I combine this expertise with a personalized, hands-on coaching style to offer practical solutions that are both innovative and grounded in real-world experience. By fostering a collaborative and supportive environment, I help you and your team overcome obstacles, enhance performance, and build a sustainable path to long-term success. Working with me means gaining a partner who is as invested in your growth and achievement as you are.
I am an expert in Positive Psychology and Post-Traumatic Growth. By helping people advance their Hero Story, we create Post-Traumatic Growth / Robust and Resilience in Life After Trauma.
