The Yearlong Hero’s Journey
Creating lasting change is not just about achieving short-term goals; it’s about fundamentally shifting how you relate to yourself, others, and the world around you.

3 Main Pillars of The Hero’s Journey
Owning the Narrative
Creating a more beautiful world starts with you. Your story matters. Together we can live into an empowering narrative that leaves a lasting impact, not only in your own life but in your community and the generations yet to come.
Breathwork
As you engage with your breath, you will begin to nurture empathy—first for yourself and then for those around you. This transformation will enrich your relationships, enabling deeper connections and fostering a sense of belonging within your community. You’ll rebuild trust in yourself, creating a foundation that supports your growth.
The Reparenting Process
Reparenting is a transformative process that not only aids individual healing but also profoundly impacts our relationships, particularly in romantic partnerships and close friendships. Many of us struggle with true self-regulation and co-regulation because these skills were often not modeled for us by our caregivers. This gap creates patterns rooted in multigenerational trauma, where understanding our needs and offering empathy—both to ourselves and others—becomes challenging.
“ I really want to work with you, but a year is a very long time that feels unrealistic, unreasonable, and inconvenient for my lifestyle.”
This is a common concern and I want to address it early. A year can feel like a significant commitment, and I completely understand if that seems inconvenient for your lifestyle. However, I’ve found that shorter coaching blocks, with an expectation for deep personal transformation, can often be unrealistic when dealing with wounds that many of us have carried for decades—or even generations.
Life is inherently unpredictable, and while I offer a year-long coaching commitment, I know that weekly meetings may not always be feasible due to illness, vacations, or simply needing a break. It’s perfectly normal to take time off, and I actually encourage it! If you ever need to step away for a few weeks or even months, we can certainly accommodate that.
During these breaks, I’m happy to provide check-ins at no additional cost, if you find them helpful. I’ve successfully worked with clients over 3, 4, or even 5 years who juggle demanding lives as parents, business professionals, and more. My approach is highly flexible and accommodating, ensuring that coaching remains a supportive element in your life—something you genuinely look forward to, rather than an added stress.
If you're ready to embark on your coaching journey, I invite you to schedule a consultation. During our initial conversation, we’ll discuss your goals, explore how my approach aligns with your needs, and determine the best path forward for your growth and transformation.

Great question! I typically ask my clients to set aside at least 60 minutes for our sessions. However, I personally block off 90 to 120 minutes to ensure we have ample time to dive deep when needed. I don’t charge by the hour or count minutes, because your transformation is what matters most!
I often provide more time and additional sessions within our coaching container, allowing us to explore and land where we need to go each time we meet. Sometimes, if the stars align, I might even work with a client multiple times a week!
That said, I completely respect your schedule. If you only have 30 to 45 minutes available, we can absolutely work within that timeframe. Your needs are my priority, and together, we’ll make it work!

In our coaching sessions, you can expect a warm, welcoming environment where you feel safe to explore your thoughts and emotions.

Each session will be a collaborative journey aimed at empowering you to overcome challenges and achieve your goals.

Life happens! I get it and I strive to be flexible with your schedule. Even with short notice, or no notice for that matter, lol. Something that I extremely proud of and is very unique… I don’t ever charge for canceled or missed appointments, so you can truly feel at ease. You’ll actually never lose out on missed time!
That said, I believe in respecting each other and honoring our agreements. If being late or “no shows” are a regular thing, we’ll definitely create space, without shame or judgement, to get curious on problem solving together as a team.

Life happens, right? Whether it’s a surprise vacation, an unexpected illness, or simply needing a breather, I’m here for you!

If you feel that our coaching partnership isn't supporting you or meeting your needs, I’m happy to refund the remaining time you have left. Your satisfaction and comfort are important to me. I will even help you find something that works better for you and offer other recommendations. With all my heart, I really want you to to be happy, even if its not working with me.
