Current Career Experience:
I presently have the privilege and joy of working as a professional life coach and relationship coach. I received my professional life coaching certification from International Coaching Academy and then went on to be trained as a relationship coach through Relationship Coaching Institute. After becoming certified as a Heart Virtues coach and trainer, I went on to train life coaches in a coach training program that I co-developed. For the past ten years I have had the pleasure of coaching hundreds of people from all over the world, some in person and most by phone. I get to do what I love when I inspire others to be themselves, transform their lives and make a difference in the world.
Past Experiences:
My current career path that led me to where I am now has included such experiences as earning a bachelors degree in psychology, counseling adolescents, families, and individuals, as well as working in a psychiatric hospital. Many years ago I also (mostly) enjoyed jobs such as instructing skiing in Germany, packing fish in Alaska, waitressing, teaching English as a foreign language to adults, as well as being a home educator and a full time mother.
It's All About the Journey
I am a person who loves fun, diversity, adventure, and new challenges. I am dedicated to living a life I love, not necessarily conventional and not always easy but very exciting and in alignment with my values and priorities. I believe we are all on our own unique paths in life. I am passionate about supporting others on their jou eys towards more love, joy and freedom. My mission is to inspire and empower myself and others to live an INCREDIBLY rich and fulfilling life filled with love, joy and freedom. Click here if you are ready or curious about coaching with me.

How You Can Reduce Your Stress Level by 90%
If you're like most people, you probably think the stress in your life is something you continually have to monitor or manage. Think for a moment about the word "management". For me it conjures up control, systems, strategy or supervision. An underlying assumption within each of these words implies that by "managing" my stress I will develop a better way to deal with the inevitable. But what about the possibility that stress is optional? What if stress isn't something you want to keep around like a mean pit bull on a long leash?

Doing Impossible Things
Around this time each year I've found it helpful to spend some time writing out the intentions I have for the upcoming year. Sometimes I use them in an almost daily, structured way to create the results I want; while other years I write them once and tuck them away with only an occasional glance later on. Both methods have worked for me at different times. You've probably read a lot of self improvement advice - perhaps even at Inspiring-Self-Improvement.com about the topic of intentions.

The Art of Non-Attachment
Attachment to anyone or anything betrays an underlying belief that there is not enough of the "good stuff" in the world. Being overly attached is a signpost of our fear that we might lose whatever good we tenuously have. But it rarely serves you well to hang on tight, attempting to keep whatever fragment of good is left in a life based on lack. Hanging on too tight constricts the flow of creativity, joy, appreciation, and most especially, peace.
