I’ve always been creative, analytical and a self-starter. This took the form of being a solopreneur in various areas.
My love of sharing stories with my children led to training in the ancient art of storytelling and story crafting. I started a storytelling and speaking business using the old folktales and personal stories. I presented stories in schools, libraries, for parties, women's retreats, and corporate retreats in Seattle and Bellevue and the surrounding areas. Stories are such a wonderful way to understand ourselves and each other. I still use them in speaking engagements and whenever a good tale is called for.
My experience in human behaviour, conflict resolution and problem solving led to an interest in psychology. After learning and growing through significant changes in my life I found a love for life coaching.
Since our lives are impacted so much by our career choices, it was a natural extension of my education to get trained for career direction. I have seen wonderful results through the use of the Career Direct assessment and my consultation with clients.
Receiving training in Mental Health Coaching gives me greater insight into mental and emotional challenges.
I believe that we are all beautifully made. That we have the potential to make a profound impact in our world. Whether it is to many or a few, we are made for greatness. Someone is counting on us to step into that. And in fulfilling what we were made for is joy.
That we live and move and have our being in God. Whether we believe that He exists or not.
That the principles of forgiveness, of gratitude, of moving intentionally through life are as relevant today as they have always been. Scientific studies are proving the immense impact on our mental, emotional and our physical health.
I love working in this field of possibility. It is a huge honor to journey with others.
