About me . . .
My journey in life has brought my seeker’s soul on a path of discovery and learning that I am very grateful for. I'm convinced that we are not created to “play small" . . . that we all have, within us, a special calling to live into the fullness of who we are, with what we are uniquely here to offer the world. We simply need to tune in and "come home" to ourselves to make that discovery. What makes us come alive is unique to all of us. Life becomes an exciting and holy adventure, when we realize that we are all Co-Creators in designing the life we want to be living. It is a delight to support and empower my clients to “Live By Design”!
I see my own life journey as a teaching and healing ground for who I am today. We can all choose to respond to life circumstances or continue to react in a way that not only blocks us from living into our highest good, but actually robs us of our joy and passion for life itself. "Reacting" to life is quite an unconscious way to live. Life is a passage of constant learning. We all get off track and out of alignment with the truth of who we are at times, especially in seasons of great stress. It's our conscious awareness that can bring us back. It is my awareness of my own humanity and commitment to growth and evolution in my personal inner journey that makes me a natural fit for the work I do.
And so . . . my venture into "Conscious Life Coaching Services" felt quite divinely orchestrated and Spirit guided - an organic evolution, based on my past work/life experiences, education and passionate interests. This was far before most people had heard of the Life Coaching field and the word "conscious" was far from being the "buzz" word it is today. Spiritually guided, it was the word given to me for my business over 14 years ago. "Conscious Life Coaching Services" is very much a "call" for me . . . a call I feel privileged to be living out. I truly consider it an honor to do the work I do. The coaching process is not for the faint of heart. It takes courage and a willingness to move into the truth. But in the end, the Truth will set you free . . . in ways you couldn't have imagined. It can actually be a fun, creative, expansive process, full of serendipity, once you get on the train. :)
I am passionate about supporting others in their journey to fulfillment, as they become empowered to live a life of authenticity. Living authentically means living from your core divine essence . . . in alignment with who you were created to be; where the joy and delight of life reside! Living from your essence is about remembering who you are, being congruent with that truth and moving in the world from this inspired place. Coming home to Self!
Life Coaching helps people break free from old limiting beliefs that keep us "stuck" in life. Do you ever feel like there is so much you want to do, but for whatever reason, you aren't moving forward? By becoming conscious of how we "get in our own way" we increase our freedom and power to CHOOSE in the present moment and in the future, living life as the resourceful, brilliant and whole creatures that we are. This is the essence of who we were created to be. It is our birthright! I am truly fascinated with that essence, as I continue to see my clients tap into their own inner wisdom and potential . . . living out the grandest version of the greatest vision they have for themselves.
My extensive, varied work experience and educational background have all helped to hone and refine what I bring to the coaching and holistic health field today, as a Holistic Life Coach, Retreat & Workshop Facilitator.
With a background/education in theological studies and over ten years in the counseling field, my niche is holistic wellness ~ Mind/Body/Spirit consciousness. I received my life coaching training through a reputable institution, affiliated with the International Coach Federation. I coach clients by phone and Skype, worldwide. In addition, I completed training as a Certified Holistic Wellness Coach, to deliver a nationally recognized group coaching wellness process called The Circle of Life. In alignment with my vision and interest in this field, I have further trained as a Retreat Coach, facilitating "Sacred Spaces" retreats . . . bringing people to "stillness," where we are best able to hear the beat of our own drum. I enjoy creating environments and experiences for personal and spiritual growth, to support others on their path of awakening . . . for refreshment, nourishment, renewal and rejuvenation of mind/body/spirit, holding space to come away from the "busy"ness of life to "sacred spaces" within the soul. With this intention, I am also a Certified "Dance Our Way Home" facilitator. As part of the healing and expressive arts, DOWH forms a safe sisterhoood, taking women through a sacred and healing journey into the body through dance. This is about coming home to Self.
