Ready to find more time and space for yourself and the things you value most?

I see you: you're juggling all the things in your full life, your calendar is organized and color-coded, and you're using all your resources to manage the needs of your work, family, health and social life. There's so much activity that weeks pass before you're able to make time for that book on your nightstand, that language you’ve been wanting to learn, that trip you’ve been wanting to take. You wish you could magically have more time to devote to enjoying the activities and people you love.

The last thing you want is to arrive at your next milestone birthday feeling depleted, looking back and regretting not spending more time on the things that matter most to you. You know there’s got to be a way to feel some balance. You’re certain that ignoring this will cost you peace, joy, and fulfillment, but you're not sure how to make it possible or where to start.

I get it because I’ve been there too.

I've run myself into the ground taking on more than I could handle, not being clear on my priorities, and putting the needs of others above mine. Let me tell you, I’ve paid the high cost of stress and overwhelm as a result. The worst part was looking back on a span of time and thinking, “Wait, why didn’t I ever follow-through with X?” It took me a long time to discover the recipe that worked for me so that I didn’t feel exhausted, overrun and not enough. Having felt the difference, I'm committed to helping you find your own recipe to feeling more in-balance and in the right groove.

So how can we course-correct?

Take a moment to daydream about what it would feel like to have more balance, to have a handle on the "musts" and have time for yourself to create, learn, relax, enjoy. What might that look like for you? What might it feel like? Pretty dreamy to imagine, right? Like your shoulders can relax and you can exhale a little easier? Let’s make this a reality for you.

Wellness Coaching: a one-on-one partnership to help you get from where you are to where you'd like to be

My coaching approach is simple: I help you find clarity and keep you accountable to the changes you most want to make for your best life. The best part? I listen to you! Together, we’ll unpack the best way forward, set realistic goals and small actions steps to get you to where you want to be. Here are all of the areas health coaching can work for you:

• lowering and managing stress

• increasing joy

• improving sleep + rest

• setting boundaries for nutrition + lifestyle

• creating routines for physical activity + fitness

• finding creative ways to increase your sense of fulfillment + purpose

• adjusting your physical environment for more calm and ease

• increasing mindful awareness

• cultivating and immersing in community

What the wellness coaching process is like with me:

Since you’re the expert on you, we’ll:

• explore your vision of best health

• explore how your personal values tie to your vision and hopes

• establish and set realistic SMART goals that work with your schedule

• create action steps to start working toward your goals

All sessions are confidential and virtual via Zoom so we can meet from the convenience and comfort of your own space. Here’s a coaching series road map:

Step 1: Discover

We start with a free 30-minute discovery call to explore your hopes and intentions for coaching.

Step 2: Decide if coaching is right for you

If you’d like to continue, I offer several options that suit different budgets and schedules.

Step 3: Get started

Your first session is 60 minutes where we cover ground rules and expectations for the series and will start exploring your focus area in depth.

Step 4: Make progress

All subsequent sessions are 30 minutes and held every 1, 2, or 3 weeks based on your preference and availability.

Here’s how others have benefited from coaching

Intrigued, but not sure if this is right for you?

You have a high standard for quality, good service and the right fit, especially when working one-on-one. It’s natural and expected to want to be certain of something before committing.

That’s why we start with a quick chat. We’ll use the 20-minute discovery call to discuss what you’ve noted in the interest form and answer questions and to make sure it feels right for you. Then it’s up to you! You can choose whether you'd like to commit to a coaching package or not. Low commitment, low risk, your choice.

Does a package of sessions feel like a drain on the calendar?

The goal is to keep this process as doable as possible for you given your existing commitments. If you decide to commit to the package, we’ll:

• kick-off the package and schedule the first session when timing is right for you.

• schedule the remaining sessions at a pace that make sense for your schedule, meeting every 1-3 weeks and during the days and times that work best for you.

I ask for 24-hour notice if rescheduling is needed, but also understand that life doesn’t always give us a 24-hour heads-up. In those (let’s face it: sometimes inevitable) cases, just let me know as soon as you can and we’ll work together to find a better time.

Wellness Coaching isn’t for you if you:

• want a one-size-fits-all approach to making change.

• want to be told how to make changes.

• aren't interested in a trial-and-correction approach. (There are no errors, just lessons learned!)

Wellness Coaching is perfect for you if you:

• you'd like to make positive changes, but don't know how, when, or where to start.

• you're willing to consider how you best operate so you can lean into your strengths.

• you'd like support and accountability through transitions.

• you're ready to intentionally make changes to enhance the quality of your life, health, and well-being.

Will you keep rushing through your days, wishing you had more time for yourself and the things you love?

Now ask yourself what it would be worth to you

What would it be worth to make your dream day-to-day a reality? To feel a sense of balance, peace, joy, and energy? To look back on the last week, month, or year and think, “Dang, I’m nailing this!”?

I offer customized packages that suit different needs and schedules starting at $285.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I need to start right after the discovery call?

Since the goal is to make this doable for you, you can set your start date based on what’s realistic for you.

If I decide to purchase a coaching package after our discovery call, what happens next?

I’ll send a contract that details what we’ve discussed in our discovery call including number of sessions, session dates, payment information and confidentiality terms. I’ll also send calendar invitations for our sessions and preparation forms to use if you’d like to note your thoughts between sessions.

How often will we meet?

Typically, meeting every 1-2 weeks is ideal to keep the change momentum going. Since coaching is centered on what works best for you, we’ll discuss what cadence fits best given your schedule.

I'm stuck in a few places; can I work through all of them?

To ensure ample time to address your needs and success with changes, I recommend working through 1-2 areas of focus at a time. If there are more than 1-2, we’ll discuss how to prioritize focus areas.

What if I need more than 5-6 coaching sessions?

Before we meet for the closing session, we will assess together if more sessions are needed and can meet for more check-in sessions before meeting for the closing session.

Does insurance cover the cost of wellness coaching?

While it is expected to change in the near future, health insurance currently does not cover the cost of wellness coaching. It might be helpful to review policies for your health savings account (HSA), flexible spending account (FSA) or health reimbursement account (HRA) if you have them. Also, small business owners often bill wellness coaching as a wellness or professional development expense.

How is wellness coaching different than therapy?

Wellness coaching explores how to identify desired changes and set goals to make those changes over time. We’ll focus on your present lifestyle and your desired future lifestyle, your strengths, and how to use these strengths to achieve your goals.
