Why do I coach?
I coach because I understand what it’s like to be caught in the whirlwind of corporate America. Navigating the constant noise while staying true to yourself and the values you believe in can feel impossible. I’ve witnessed the transformation that occurs when you lead authentically. You will gain traction, learn to prioritize, become comfortable saying no, and most importantly, rediscover the joy in each day spent serving others and leading. I struggled with being a leader at first. It wasn't until I learned to let go of my own contributions and open my heart and mind to the ideas of my team, allowing them to set their own goals and objectives, that I truly began to thrive.
