My story…

I believe in the power and potential of every individual to chart a path that allows their unique strengths to flourish and for them to achieve their goals. It is the simple yet challenging task of being our best selves—mind, body, and spirit—that allows us to thrive, nurture healthy families and communities, create life-affirming organizations, and ultimately change the world. As a national board-certified health and wellness coach (NBC-HWC) trained at the Mayo Clinic, I am passionate about supporting individuals and teams that are committed to ongoing learning, reflection, and making positive change for themselves.

Before becoming a health and wellness coach, I was an organizational consultant who designed and facilitated organizational planning processes, facilitated retreats, and provided leadership coaching to teams and individuals. I saw many leaders experiencing the negative physical and emotional effects of burnout and other job-related stressors.  In response, I made a commitment to re-focus my life’s work on wellness as an important strategy for how I can contribute to the success of organizations. In addition to health and wellness coaching, I still design and facilitate planning processes, workshops, retreats, and other meetings that increase organizational effectiveness—now with an approach grounded in values that link individual and organizational health and wellness.

Through fits and starts and the inevitable ups and downs of life, I have committed to the practice of personal wellness through my enjoyment of fitness, cooking healthy foods enjoyed with others, and a love for the outdoors. I have practiced yoga for 20 years and look forward to spending time in a small community garden plot with my partner and other gardeners. My guilty pleasures include napping (passed down to me from my father) and binge watching cooking shows (especially if they include an element of travel).
