I didn't look for life coaching.  It found me.

When I first stumbled upon life coaching, I had no idea it would lead to one of the most profound transformations of my life.

I had never even heard of "life coaching"...

Ahhh, September...

There's something about this time of year that feels like "possibility" to me.

Maybe it's the fact that for nearly 20 years of my life, September brought newness with it.  New teachers, new classes, new notebooks.  Sometimes a new school.  It always...

In the journey of life, going through a divorce is one of the hardest things someone can face. It brings a lot of emotional pain, uncertainty, and the need to figure out what comes next. But, like driving, getting through this difficult time often means focusing more on where you want to go than...

We’re all guilty of it. 

Taking care of everyone else’s needs/wants long before we see to our own. 

And we wonder why we start to feel exhausted and cranky? 

Taking care of everyone around us before taking care of ourselves may seem noble, but it’s actually...
