If you’ve found your way here, chances are that you feel a subtle restlessness.
That is, a background unease that arises from the intuitive knowing that there exists a potential within you that remains untapped but somehow still feels essential to who you are.
What I’ve come to understand is that this feeling is not a problem that is meant to be solved nor troubleshooted. In actuality, this feeling is a blessing! This is the impulse of Life itself calling you into greater authentic expression, into Who You Truly Are.
1-1 Coaching
Transformative Life Coaching
I absolutely promise you that what you don’t need is another productivity hack or someone to “give” you all the answers.
What you need is to take off the mask, stop pretending, and simply be Who You Are.
This is what I can help you to do. In working with me, the version of you that’s trying to emerge will finally get room to breathe.
In this, we are not trying to “fix” anything, but rather we are seeking to reimagine, reinvent, rebuild, and ultimately remember the grandest possibility, the greatest vision that you ever had about yourself and all of us.
Presently, you’re likely navigating a threshold. Perhaps it’s:
Working a career that does not light up your soul.
Inhabiting an identity that feels old, outdated, and used up.
Realizing that you've been seeking validation or approval from external sources rather than trusting your inner wisdom.
Persistently sensing that you are going through the motions without feeling genuinely engaged or passionate about your daily life.
Constantly distracting yourself with low-quality stimuli to hide from the discomfort of truly leaping into the Unknown.
Feeling that you have a high level of spiritual awareness but have found yourself unable to bring these higher truths into the embodied realm.
Your soul is ready to emerge.
Just by reading this, you are already close.
Let’s begin.
Philosophy/Methodology
ICC accredited coach
As a coach/mentor/guide (trained by Integral Coaching Canda Inc.), I consider my role as being the facilitator of the becoming of your authentic self, which can also be phrased as the “emergence of the soul.” I’ve found that this is only possible within a container of multiple months, which is why I have never offered single sessions.
The word “soul” is important here. To live from Soul is to inhabit our true, ultimate place in the world. This is the niche we fit into within the larger fabric of life, where our individual uniqueness becomes a gift to the collective whole.
To live soulfully is express ourselves naturally, truthfully, and as we are. Given that we live in a soul-suppressing, ego-driven culture, to start letting the armor of our ego drop to reveal our shining soul can seem like an arduous process, it can even seem like death sometimes….but this is where I come in.
The coaching process with me is not for the faint of the heart, which is why I am only interested in working with people who are deeply feeling the call to Soul at this moment. It will feel like you just cannot keep living like you are now. It will feel like there is “something more” to you, to life that might be hard to name but still feels essential to your full blossoming as a human being. You will know it if you feel it.
Through embodying a wide, warm, attuned container while holding an extremely comprehensive map of human development (seriously, I’m too obsessed with studying this stuff), I’ve helped dozens so far in stepping into deeper alignment with their truth, aiding in integrating spiritual experiences, navigating career changes, transcending people-pleasing patterns, integrating shadow, and harmonizing one’s inner family, all so that one can claim what is uniquely theirs to claim (their soul, their true place in the world, their core gifts and finding meaningful ways to deliver these gifts).
If this resonates, consider booking a 45 minute Discovery Call with me to see if we are a fit to work together.
WAKE UP
This path involves accessing higher states of consciousness so that you can see the reality of yourself and your situation with more clarity.
From a theoretical standpoint, this discipline refers primarily to the realm of spiritual awakening, which represents the transcendence of the ego’s limited perspective, leading to the visceral recognition of our fundamental oneness with all of existence.
While the aim of our work together would not be to induce a spiritual awakening, from a more practical standpoint this discipline can also refer to the clear, luminous, penetrative insights we can receive in more everyday contexts such as taking a hike in nature, sitting in meditation, being in a flow state, or in having a conversation with a wise friend.
In working with me, we will be taking an active approach to utilizing states of consciousness in order to pierce through your limitations, cut through the ego’s bullshit, and ultimately see the fullness of your situation with increased clarity.
GROW UP
Growing Up involves progressing through the increasingly complex stages of maturity (from ego-centric to ethnocentric to nationcentric to worldecentric and beyond).
This path expands our identity, along with our circle of care and concern. Each stage includes and transcends the previous ones, meaning higher stages incorporate the capacities of earlier stages while adding new capabilities.
Implemented practically in a coaching context, typically we focus on a couple individual lines of development within this larger discipline of Growing Up, such as cognitive (how we think), moral (our sense of right vs wrong), emotional (how we relate to our emotions), interpersonal (how we relate to others), somatic (how we relate to/inhabit our bodies), and the spiritual.
In addition, I also focus on personality type (primarily the MBTI and Enneagram typology systems) as each individual’s unique path of growing up will take on a slightly different flavor based on their unique personality type. What I often find is that the curious, inquisitive, highly sensitive souls who usually work with me have often had their personality gifts suppressed by our capitalistic, high-pace, high-achievement, high-productivity culture.
My job as the coach is to help you unearth the unique gifts that someone with your unique type might hold, while also incorporating practices that will help you develop along the particular lines of development that will help you develop the capacities to aid in stepping into your greatest version.
This path involves healing and integrating the psychological wounds, traumas, and shadow material that we've accumulated throughout our lives.
Cleaning up recognizes that unresolved psychological material creates unconscious patterns that limit our capacity to show up fully. The shadow includes not only our "dark" disowned qualities like anger or vulnerability, but also our "golden" shadow - the positive qualities we've rejected, such as our power, creativity, or worthiness of love.
In working with me, we approach cleaning up through multiple pathways to the unconscious. We might explore your dreams to uncover symbolic messages from your psyche, engage in stream-of-consciousness speaking or writing to bypass mental filters, or work somatically with where these patterns live in your body. We'll also examine projections and triggers - recognizing that the qualities in others that most activate us often point to disowned aspects of ourselves.
This work is particularly crucial for sensitive, intuitive types who often carry extra emotional residue from their environments. My role is to create a safe container where you can explore these deeper layers of your psyche, freeing up life force energy that's been bound up in psychological defenses.

FAQ’s
-
The 45 minute Discovery Call is a free call for those who are interested in working with me to discuss their goals, aspirations, challenges, blockages, and overall intention for desiring coaching. This call serves to determine whether we are a good fit to work together in a long-term context.
-
While both are highly valuable services, life coaching focuses primarily on growth through moving forward and actualizing goals, whereas therapy focuses heavily on healing, past trauma, and treating existing mental health conditions. What I offer is NOT therapy. There will not be an emphasis on “healing” in my coaching. To work with me, you should be of sound mental health. If we decide to work together and you are seeing a therapist, please continue to work with them as you see fit and not see me as serving the same function as them.
-
My coaching offers a unique blend of being both a highly structured container as well as a warm and relaxing space in which you feel safe to explore whatever is needed for your growth. The coaching is highly structured in the sense that, together, we will collaborate and co-create a “new way of being” for you that transcends what limits your current way of being while including the aspects that are serving your current way of being. Stepping into a deeper embodiment of this new way of being will be the primary focus of the coaching program. You can reasonably expect to spend approximately 4-6 hours per week on activities regarding the coaching program (calls, practices, journaling, etc.)
-
My coaching is best for people who feel ready to step into a more deep, conscious, intentional, and authentic existence. I work best with open-minded individuals who have a passion for learning, understanding, and exploring their inner depths, who recognize that growth is a long-term process rather than a quick solution, and for those who have an insatiable calling to become the most they can become for themselves, for others, and for the world.

Ultimately, that is something for you to decide. What I have found for myself is that the most sincere, genuine, wise, and conscious individuals invested heavily in themselves, both with their money and with their time. If you really think about it, there is not much, if anything at all, that is more worthwhile than utilizing your time, money, and energy into becoming a more whole, authentic, potent, lively, wise, loving, and conscious being. If this perspective does not resonate with you it probably is best we do not work together.
