My Journey

I didn't set out with the ambition of becoming a life coach.

In fact, it happened quite by accident.

I was, and still am, a romance writer.

I had written and published two books, and while working on the third, my husband changed jobs and we had to move. This was difficult enough, but when my youngest daughter decided to set out on her own at the same time, it was extremely difficult for me. I had been a mom for over thirty years, and I found myself asking, "What now?"

I felt completely lost and alone. I found it harder and harder to find my happiness or any sense of joy.

I was crying every day. I had no energy to do the things I usually liked to do. I didn't even want to leave the house.

I went thru some very difficult times trying to find my purpose now that my children didn't need me as much, and there were many, many times, I just didn't know what to do.

It was only after I hired a life coach that I began to have hope for my future.

This person gave me the tools I needed to grieve thru the process, to work thru new obstacles I was facing, and finally, to help me find my purpose now that I was no longer a full time mom. She gave me someone to talk to. Someone who understood what I was going through, when so many others simply could not.

Over time, I began to feel better. I began to cope, and even thrive, as I started to heal.

After our sessions were over, she encouraged me to become a life coach myself, and the more I thought about it, the more I realized that she was right.

Having gone through my own journey as an empty nester, I truly felt that I could connect with people that were dealing with the same issues that I was.

So I decided to get my life coaching certification.

And now, I help my clients work through this very difficult time in their lives by helping them to be more confident, by giving them encouragement and support, and by supplying them with the tools they need to lead a fulfilling life.

I believe that everyone deserves to be happy.

My greatest joy is watching my clients find their happiness and joy again.

When their clarity of purpose emerges and transformation unfolds, it’s magical!

This is an exciting new chapter in your life. And if we work together, I will be with you every step of the way.

My methods are encouraging, supportive, non-judgmental, and empathetic.

I look forward to working with you!
