Coaching is an investment to consider seriously, and part of the consideration is financial cost.

However, there are other costs to consider:

• Time and energy spent stressing out and saying "yes" to everyone but yourself
• The cost to your health and well-being because you aren't taking physical or emotional care of yourself
• The eventual financial costs of running yourself ragged
• The cost of not living your one life NOW and constantly waiting for "some day" because you can't "afford" it

In the end, only you can decide if the financial cost is worth it. However, I suspect that continuing to feel frustrated and stuck is doing damage that you really can’t afford. (You can also ask me about a payment plan.)

Our weekly coaching sessions are one hour long. Between sessions you'll implement the practices and skills taught during coaching at your own pace, during your everyday life. 

Therapy typically focuses on figuring out the root causes of your difficulties. It uses a medical model that diagnoses an underlying issue, then uses particular therapeutic modalities to help “heal” the patient. Those modalities differ depending on the training of the therapist or psychologist.

In contrast, coaching is focused on your present and future. Coaching considers past experiences, but it is less to unravel what happened (which will be more appropriately done with a therapist) and more to help you understand the origins of your current thinking and feeling patterns – and how to interrupt them NOW when they prevent you from taking the actions you want TODAY.

In addition, my perspective as a coach is that there is nothing “wrong” with you that needs "fixing." I teach that you have protective thought and nervous system patterns in place that developed when you were young, and that are still in play despite your no longer needing those defenses. My Empowered Life Process™ combines both mindset and nervous system modalities to help you eradicate the engrained thoughts and fears that no longer serve you.

Some of the modalities I use include Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT or Tapping), Insight Meditation, and Somatic Experiencing, as well as coaching modalities from the Life Coach School, Tiny Habits, and Positive Intelligence.

The foundational theories of my work comes from neuroscience, polyvagal theory, studies on intergenerational and developmental trauma, and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).

I combine these modalities and foundations to create my own unique system to support clients in understanding their human operating system and then empowering them to use it proactively.

The Empowered Life Process™ is an individualized coaching program that helps you gain clarity on what’s keeping you stressed out and stuck, teach you how to handle challenging people and circumstances with confidence, and help you feel empowered in your own life, exactly as you are, without needing to people please or say “yes” to everything to feel like you’re good enough.

In addition, I have a unique understanding of the issues faced by high-achieving first-generation people that other coaches and therapists do not necessarily know or understand – things like feeling like you’re caught between different worlds, that you don’t belong in any one place, and feeling like you must keep working hard to survive.

When you do this work, you'll have deep shifts that stick. You'll discover the unconscious beliefs that have kept you locked in exhausting patterns. And you'll let go of thinking that doesn't serve you.

The things you learn about yourself will have a huge impact on your whole life – not only on your relationship with yourself, but with your partner and with your family of origin. You’ll develop self-trust and confidence that no matter where you are, you truly belong and deserve to be there – which will make a huge positive impact on everyone around you.

Therapy and meds can be useful, but they don’t always take into account nervous system work - specifically, the importance of creating nervous system safety in your body while also changing your thoughts.

The Empowered Life Process™ incorporates both top-down (changing the brain and your thinking) and bottom-up (working with your body) nervous system work to help you build emotional self-regulation. I use cognitive behavioral practices AND somatic experiencing practices to help clients develop stronger emotional self-regulation. 

Numerous clients have worked with me while working with therapists and found my coaching more effective and faster than what they were receiving from their clinicians. In some cases, clients stopped working with their therapists after working a few months with me because of the simple and effective coaching tools they learned with me.

My program is weekly for 6 months (26 weeks) because that guarantees that you will get the results you want. The process of coaching is uncovering the disempowering thoughts and feelings that limit you so you can then create awareness and retrain your brain to challenge the old thoughts and think new empowering thoughts and beliefs. So, consistency is important.

The work we do requires weekly regular sessions. This is because we will be digging deep each week and then checking in on how the previous week went. Momentum is built by regular ongoing coaching and practicing of the strategies that you’ll learn. If we do every other week, I can't guarantee that you'll get the same results or as quickly, since they build on each other.

Not a problem – we can skip any vacation or travel weeks and then add them on the back end of the 26 weeks.

Yes, the engagement fee may be split into payments, with the first payment made at registration and subsequent payments automatically charged at regular intervals. Feel free to ask me about my payment plan when we chat!

Let’s schedule a quick chat to make sure this is right for you.

We'll talk about what's working in your life and what's not. We'll explore what you want for yourself and start to identify roadblocks that might be in your way. I will also answer any questions you might have about coaching together.

This is a no-pressure zone and I will help you make a no-regrets, empowered decision about whether this is the right time for you to do this work.
