About me
I began career in coaching while pursuing a successful legal career and teaching yoga on the side to drive my spirit. During my eight years as an attorney, I watched my colleagues, clients and friends - some of the most talented professional women out there - move through life without clear direction. They passively took work given to them and accepted any promotion or position change thrust upon them even when it clearly didn't further their life goals. Watching others live such uninspired and reactive lives made me wonder - how can they expect to move forward with no clear direction or plan?!
As I made my way through two positions that many attorneys would call dream jobs, I saw that I was falling into the same trap. I realized that being an attorney didn’t take advantage of my greatest strengths or support the life I wanted to live. So, I completed my coaching certification with the Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching in 2014 and have been coaching full time since 2015. Sidestepping from the role of counsel to coach, I now find tremendous enjoyment watching my clients take charge of their corporate journey in a way that supports the life and future they want as they become more engaged in their work and fulfilled in life.
I help my clients advance or transition their careers in a more strategic way than most professionals have historically approached it. My coaching will help you:
- clarify your long term career path and how to get there
- answer - once and for all - what you REALLY want to be when you grow up (no matter what age!)
- align your career future with your values and the life you want to live
- develop habits to reduce stress and gain mental clarity and confidence
- manage your career so you are working your career instead of being worked by it
I work primarily with successful, mid-career professionals. Most of my clients are middle, senior or executive level managers that want to recharge or redirect their careers and take control of their lives.
