Triumph Through Transition
Work. Play. Thrive
There are many different stages of change and transition. Perhaps knowing what you want but not knowing where to start. Feeling excited yet confused; stress, disappointment; a million ideas but lacking clarity or focus. It can be overwhelming and come with a potent cocktail of feelings of fear, self-doubt and anxiety.
As a facilitator, not dictator I get to work in a way that speaks to the core of what I personally value. Coaching is an authentic, intuitive and trusted process where we create a safe, non- judgmental and inspiring space, to move the action forward. What I love about the coaching relationship is witnessing the insights, growth, success and ultimately joy that I hear when we move from pain, apathy or "good enough" to a place of fulfillment, freedom and fearlessness.
Sleepless nights
What is keeping you up at night? I knew in my heart it was my time to choose a path that was true to everything I hold dear. I knew what I didn't want. But I needed help to find an answer and develop a plan. On one of many sleepless nights I literally asked the universe "what am I supposed to do with my gifts, knowledge, passions and experiences?"

Why invest in a coach?
I did! When I was given the heartbreaking news that my employer and our beloved community newspaper would be publishing its last paper the following week, my first thought was of the impact this would have on my family followed by the desire to reach out to all my clients to reassure them that we would help them through this change. After a period of acceptance and closure, I suddenly nose-dived into crippling fear and self-doubt which left me inexplicably lethargic and completely unmotivated. The more the job offers came in and the more I heard the loving voices of my friends and family reassuring me that there were great things ahead of me, the more I wanted to climb into a hole and hibernate for an indefinite amount of time.

Fast forward to today. I now choose who I work with and how. I have a thriving international consulting and coaching practice where I specialize in leadership and supporting individuals, groups and businesses ready to make the change they desire. With the support of my loving family, friends and iPEC* coach community, I triumphed through my transition to truly be who I was always meant to be.
