Why I Love What I Do
Great things never come from comfort zones. I love working with women of all ages who are committed to learning and moving beyond their growth edge. My process is a co-creative, heart-centered, and aligned-action approach that taps into your creativity, authenticity, and inner wisdom. Ultimately, the more you know yourself, who you want to become, and understand how you respond to change, the more empowered and equipped you can be to make the shifts you deeply want for your life.
“For me, becoming isn’t about arriving somewhere or achieving a certain aim. I see it instead as forward motion, a means of evolving, a way to reach continuously toward a better self. The journey doesn’t end.”
— Michelle Obama, Former First Lady of the United States

Current Offerings
Let's schedule a 30-minute intake to get to know each other and discuss your coaching needs. After we meet, you can select a session from the offerings below or we can design something together that is more personalized. Contact me at [email protected]. Sessions can be done via Zoom or in-person.
There are so many great coaching methodologies out in the world now. Martha Beck's Wayfinder Life Coaching is creative and versatile and can be applied to all kinds of people and life situations. This coaching centers on aligning with authentic self and removing limiting thoughts, letting go of cultural beliefs, shifting mindsets, and opening space for new possibilities. The Wayfinder toolbox is filled with fun and meaningful tools, activities, and other wisdom that can be used to create new awareness, generate ideas, and get clarity on the actions that make impactful change.
Being part of a community of women working on similar goals can be really energizing, affirming, and inspiring. When we circle together, we create community, opportunity for shared wisdom, and the space to support our changes in powerful and surprising ways. Deepen your understanding of what brings you alive, connect and learn from others who are on a similar path, and create next steps to manifest a specific change in your work and/or life. A change can be anything from a shift in perspective, starting a new project, or creating a new personal identity. Send me an email ([email protected]), if you are interested. New ChangeSpace Circles usually require 4-6 participants and launch three to four times per year.
Your Sparketype serves as one of the single biggest clues in your quest to figure out what to do with your "one wild and precious life." Take the free Sparketype online assessment and then we will use your Sparketype profile to dig deeper to understand the work that brings you alive to make the necessary adjustments or create brand new opportunities that feel more satisfying and tap into your full potential.
This is a 120-minute introductory session. Learn more about the five key ingredients for being "sparked" and how your Primary, Shadow and Anti-Sparketype intersect. Use your body compass to get clearer about what sparks you at work and life right now. Understand the relationship between your "satisfaction spectrum" and energy level. Diagnose your current work to understand what's truly working and what's worth doing something about with more confidence and clarity. Important details: Prework will be assigned 7-10 days before the session. The session will be recorded by Zoom, but not shared. You will receive an email summary of our session along with a plan for next steps.
Sparketype “Deep Dive”: Three Ninety-Minute Sessions
This is a three-session package. Each session builds on the next. We will kick-off with a "Discovery Session." We will use the "Sparketype Expression Inventory" to explore your four life domains and then work together on your "Spark Canvas." The “Spark Canvas” identifies complementary drivers, orientations, and preferences that create a fuller profile to help you clarify what else really matters when making a decision about new work opportunities -- ones that arise on their own and/or ones that you want to initiate. Important details: There is homework before each session. Key takeaways will be sent after each session.
100% Human – The Power of People-Centered Work
This is a thought-provoking and experiential workshop that presents a relevant, integrated and holistic view of what people-centered work looks like inside organizations and what is needed to support it. Whether you are a leader, manager or individual contributor, you will walk away with the latest workplace research trends, strategies and tools that can be put to use for yourself and others to find more connection, harmony, and meaning in your professional life. Participants become familiar with the three-part “100% Human” model. This framework helps to better understand the fundamental connection between work and self, how to build healthy and trusting work relationships, and on a larger scale, the opportunity to create and sustain people-centered community and culture within organizations.
Sparketype Discovery Workshop for Teams
Ask everyone on your team to take the free Sparketype online assessment and then leverage their Sparketype profiles to dig deeper to create a shared understanding of the work that brings your team alive. Using the Sparketype as a diagnostic tool can reveal where individuals may feel drained or inhibited to do more. Takeaways from this workshop allow you as the team leader/manager to make the necessary adjustments and/or create new opportunities to leverage the talent and full potential of your group. In addition, participants learn more about the five key ingredients for being "sparked" and how the components of your Sparketype profile intersect, as well as explore the relationship between "satisfaction spectrum" and levels of engagement.
My Unfolding Journey
As a mom of two teenagers, a wife, business consultant, and coach, I aspire to be more of my true self each day. It's not easy, and it's definitely not neat and tidy. I've learned that change requires self-compassion, a growth mindset, and commitment. My heartwork is helping individuals, teams, and organizations connect to their purpose and navigate transition with roadmaps that align values, beliefs and actions. I am currently the chief engagement officer (CEO) and co-owner of Big Tent Consulting with my life and business partner, Howie. I continue to be sparked by being a community builder, employee advocate, work/life coach and experience designer. In 2022, I completed three professional certifications to add to my coaching and facilitation toolbox. I am now a Wayfinder Life Coach, a Certified Sparketype Advisor, and “Scaling Intimacy” Experience Designer. I love finding reasons to celebrate with family and friends frequently, as well as make time for walks in the woods with my dog and camera.
