“Tell me what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?” – Mary Oliver

That’s the thing, it’s YOUR life.  You get to decide.  Sometimes we forget how much choice we have over our lives.

And the circumstances that we’re in that are not of our choosing….well we have a choice there too.

I  believe that everyone has the right to fulfilling and meaningful work.

I’ve had the audacity to live life on my own terms most of the time.  There were some periods due to circumstances that I had to take jobs for the money.  I know how painful it is too feel like you’re trapped doing something that’s meaningless and how not having engaging work that you love skews your entire existence.

Bridge Architect?

Many people think that changing careers or abandoning your steady job to start a business is like jumping of a cliff into an abyss.  Actually, it doesn’t have to be anything like that.   I use the bridge metaphor in my work because I help people build a strong, sturdy, bridge from where they are to where they want to go.

Once the bridge is constructed, you walk over it one step at a time.

The more people that I can help down this path, the better.

And you know all of this because?

I’ve started two businesses and helped my husband transition from a 20 year career in the insurance industry to his dream job of working in television news. In addition to helping people find their path to meaningful work I help people grow their small business.  I was the director of marketing for a major tour company in New York City and prior to that I worked for PR agencies that represented restaurants and gourmet food companies.

I work with my clients to identify what it is they truly want in their lives and then together we construct a plan for making that happen.

Coaching sessions take place over the phone and last 45 minutes to an hour.
