About
I have lived a lifetime of varied and widespread experiences; both painful and joyous, more often than not challenging, and some that may have pushed me to my very edge but in the end only served as lessons. Before being inspired to become a Coach, I spent 25 years working in the Outdoor Recreation industry. I worked with and supported trusted equipment and service retailers, designed and developed innovative camping gear and worked as a guide and instructor for those seeking to push their limits and seek their own possibilities through outdoor adventure.
Most recently, I published a book of my accounts and experiences dealing with personal trauma, narcissistic abuse, inviting the mystical powers of ayahuasca, scratching the surface of spirituality and the beginnings of the healing process. Because of this, I have some perspectives and possibilities to share. Some have called it wisdom, I prefer to think of it as experiences, contemplated and reflected upon, and passed on as knowledge that I am privileged to share.
My goal with my clients is to pass along the possibilities available to you through careful listening, honest conversation, individually designed projects and your own personal reflection as the inspiration for your growth and authentic path forward!
Why should I be your Coach?
Well, you’ve asked a very good question! Officially, I’m an ICF (International Coaching Federation) trained coach; a year long, intensive course at Accomplishment Coaching, specializing in an ontological approach of self-awareness, spiritual growth and leading from ones essence. More personally, I believe that the real possibilities available through working with a Coach comes down to the connection between coach and client, meaningful projects/goals, and a mutual commitment to growth.
To give you some background, along with having long been a trusted confidant of friends, family and colleagues, I have been one of those people you hear about; those people whom strangers feel compelled to approach and explain their life story to in a matter of minutes to. For most of my life I didn’t understand it or truly appreciate it, but now recognize it as a true gift. I have a naturally empathetic, caring and curious nature and because of this I am committed to supporting and investing in the clients I work with.
If the time is right and you’re ready to explore your possibilities, I would invite you step into a complimentary exploratory Coaching session designed to shine a light on your true essence – a way of being to inspire and support your journey towards living the life that feels right for you!
