Smart, confident women over 40
living a fast paced, often hectic lives.
If this describes you, we need to talk.

You may have lost touch with your creative, spiritual side, and recognize change is on its way whether by choice or by circumstance. In fact, you may be in the midst of some significant changes already. While you have lived enough life to know this isn’t going to last forever, you are looking for a way to move through these issues smoothly with harmony and grace.

You are compassionate and caring toward the people in your life and you enjoy being of service and making a difference. Yet, lately with all the changes, you feel thwarted and ineffective. You know you are a spiritual individual and you are interested in deepening this important part of your life.

You have reached a point in life from dealing with the chaos life has thrust upon you that you are left asking yourself “Is this all there is to life? Isn’t there something more? What do I do with myself now?”

You may find yourself dealing with some major changes in your life like the end of a job you dearly loved, the end of a significant relationship, the change in a family structure such as all your children have left home or a mother or in-law has moved in, changing the family dynamics. Or it can be the death of a dream that you were sure you would get to someday and now as you face reality, you are clear that dream will never come to pass.
When What’s Worked in the Past Isn’t Working Now
Tail Chasing
You have tried all the typical solutions that have always worked in the past but they aren’t working this time. Working harder and longer is not producing the results you were looking for and has left you drained and worn out, making it that much harder to focus. Talking to friends who are sympathetic and concerned leaves you only more drained and confused.

The social functions you’ve enjoyed attending in the past leave you feeling awkward and out of place, so you go along pretending that nothing has changed but knowing deep inside that everything has. Your attempts to sweep the problem under the rug by ignoring it and pretending everything is okay only serves to drive the pain that much deeper, leading to an overwhelming feeling of being stuck and even resigned – the ultimate condition of being stuck.

You may feel like a dog chasing its tail. You're ready to move ahead in your life but you feel like you're just running in circles.

These typical ways of dealing with issues don’t work anymore because you aren’t the same person you used to be. When you aren’t asking the right question you can’t get the right answers because they don’t get to the heart of the matter.

Shifting from Outer to Inner Solutions

Dealing with external situations that affect us internally and then expecting to solve the internal issue from the external world never works. These problems have to be dealt with from an internal perspective, and it often helps to work with someone who understands the inner landscape of another person and the importance of healing old wounds that can keep you stuck in life -- someone who has gone through many of these issues and come out on the other side.

As a life coach with over twenty years of professional experience, I help my clients reduce stress from such changes in life, by helping them face the truth of their present situation, and then find ways to deal with the changes in effective and life enhancing ways.The situation moves from being a problem to an opportunity for personal growth and development. As this opportunity opens up we explore and develop new ways of catching these types of situations before they become hard to handle and then custom fit the tools to fit you and your life, resulting in a deeply satisfying and fulfilling life.

As a coach, one of my strongest gifts to my clients is listening deeply and compassionately and then asking the right questions. I also teach my clients skills in self-reflection that gets to the root of the matter with a minimum amount of pain. I’ll work with you to develop the best communication skills possible so that you are able to speak to the people in your life in such a way that they understand who you are, what you are going through and how they can assist you or leave you to your own devices.

In the area of spirituality I bring my studies and work with angels to help my clients. Having been interested in angels for my entire life, I bring a deep respect and honor for what is important to each of us in our spiritual life. I am not here to tell you what to believe but to offer new perspectives and questions to help you sort out what is true for you and what you want for yourself.
