We throw around the term “life coach” … but what exactly is one? Do they fit the stereotype that only the mega-rich executives can benefit from their advice (and afford them)? MetroFamily Magazine asked several local life coaches, including me, their burning questions about this burgeoning field, who can benefit from hiring a life coach and how to find the right fit.

2020 was a doozy of a year that no one saw coming. How did you respond? Did you choose to show up as soda? Or water? Ask yourself these questions to find out. Remember, you always have a choice in your reactions. 💛

In 2018, I stood atop these cliffs petrified with fear. The same cliffs I’d fearlessly jumped throughout my childhood and just a year before. How had so much changed? Who was this girl so afraid of what comes next? Sweet friends, let me remind you, cliffs were made for jumping.

For years, I prided myself on being a rescuer. Whatever was wrong, I had the one solution that would work. Better than them doing it themselves, I would do it for them. It took me a long time to realize that it isn’t my job to “fix” people. In doing so, I assume something is wrong with them in the first place.

Over two years ago, I found myself stuck. I’d been divorced over a year and still couldn’t find my way in this new world. I distinctly remember NOT remembering who I was anymore. I’d been part of a “we” for so long that I didn’t remember what it was like to be ME. Simply me. 

That’s the proverbial question that seems to be on everybody’s mind when they see me. As I mentioned in this Instagram post, I didn’t have all the answers when I first returned. In fact, I still don’t. However, I have a very clear direction of what I want and how to get there. I’d love for you to come along on the journey as I write my next chapter. What’s in store? Glad you asked.
