My closest friend would describe me as:
A highly motivated world changer. I like to use my gifts to create paths for others and speak up for those, who may think they have no voice!
My coaching style is:
Caring, reflective and intrusive...I like to make my coachee’s challenge norms and feel SEEN!
One belief that I have that influences my approach to coaching is:
One's path to success does not have to be linear. My own personal and professional journey has been a whirlwind with lots of twists and turns. Every phase, path and relationship played a part in leading me into a career I love and becoming authentically me....I believe we should find ways to spend more time doing what fulfills us. It doesn’t have to make sense to someone else, as long as it matters to you! #whatbox?
One way I’ve challenged a norm or taken a leap in my life is:
One wild pivot….
From: Stressful corporate job with great salary, travel and perks
To: Award winning high school business teacher, IN LOVE with her career. More time to harness the creativity and capacity of others. #grateful
My story:
I started on a path to elementary education but switched to pursue a career in higher education administration. A tech company enticed me with an opportunity to train adults and nearly double my salary. SO MANY wonderful opportunities came from that.
At the end of the day, I’m just a girl from the country, one who attended school in a small town with less than 10k pp. One who wasn’t sure she’d be able to finish the first semester of college, but managed to earn 2 degrees. I’m a wife and mother who draws strength from my faith and family.
