My story

My story is probably not so different from yours! After a significant amount of time spent in one field (for me, this field was teaching), I have chosen to make a mid-career pivot in order to pursue what truly inspires me and ignites my passion.

When it was time to begin the post-teaching chapter of my life, I decided that it was time for me to do what I genuinely wanted, what actually brought me joy!

As a teacher, I found that a significant part of my job was to provide my students with life and career guidance. Most of these students were unsure of what steps to take after high school or college.

Many of them struggled academically and were uncertain as to what career path to follow. Reflecting back on my professional life, I discovered that the most rewarding part of it and the part which had brought me the most joy was the time that I spent guiding students in the process of figuring out what their goals were and helping them to devise strategies to achieve them.

So, I made the decision to define and pursue my own goal of becoming a life coach so that I could do just that full-time. I did become a certified professional life coach, but in addition, I chose to become certified in CBT coaching, confidence coaching and (my personal favorite!) happiness coaching.

I am a positive and compassionate person by nature and I am excited to apply the skills that I have learned in terms of active listening and asking powerful questions, goal setting and action planning and maintaining accountability partnerships.

So, whether you are just looking for some clarity with regard to specifying goals and creating a plan to make them a reality, or you want to increase your confidence and/or happiness level, I can guide you through the process of getting unstuck and discovering your happy!

I look forward to our time together.
