Coaching.

One-on-one support for those ready to walk a more intentional path.

Sometimes a school assembly or a moment of inspiration is just the beginning. What someone really needs is a guide—someone who can walk alongside them as they reconnect with who they are and figure out where they’re going.

That’s where this work goes deeper.

I offer one-on-one mentorship and coaching for:

  • Teens navigating self-doubt, stress, or big life questions

  • Young people who feel lost, stuck, or unsure of what matters to them

  • Adults in transition, burnout, or misalignment—ready to walk a new path

Whether I’m working with a high school student or a 40-something professional, my approach is the same:

Support the person in front of me—without pressure, without judgment—and help them move forward with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

What this work looks like.

This isn’t therapy.

It’s not a motivational pep talk.

And it’s definitely not about quick fixes or empty affirmations.

This is real, human, grounded support rooted in presence, reflection, and meaningful action.

Together, we’ll:

  • Identify what’s actually getting in the way

  • Build self-awareness and emotional resilience

  • Let go of unhelpful narratives or external pressure

  • Strengthen decision-making and values-based action

  • Create space for new habits and aligned growth

What I bring to the work.

  • Certified mindfulness teacher, trained one-on-one by a former Buddhist monk

  • Certified life coach focused on values-based living and sustainable habit change

  • Certified yoga instructor and nature therapy guide

  • 15+ years of experience helping people reconnect with what matters—and live it

I don’t just talk about this stuff. I’ve lived it.

From walking away from a life that felt out of alignment, to hiking 2,000 miles in search of clarity, to building a life rooted in purpose—I bring the real-life experience of someone who’s been there.

Session details:

  • Virtual sessions (via Google Meet), 60 minutes

  • Weekly or bi-weekly options based on your needs

  • For youth clients: parents/guardians are included in intake and receive light updates throughout

  • Between sessions: tools, prompts, or mindset shifts to help integrate the work

Is this for you (or your child)?

You don’t need to have it all figured out.

You just need to want something different—and be open to discovering what that looks like.

This work may be a great fit if you’re:

  • Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to go next

  • Tired of running on autopilot or living for others’ expectations

  • Ready to slow down and start listening inward

  • Curious about what it means to truly walk your own path
