As a coach, advisor and facilitator, I am here to help guide you as you navigate a challenging moment. Perhaps you have a big question that you - or your team - are wrestling with? Maybe you need to pause, take stock, and assess the situation? Or maybe you just need a sounding board - someone who can listen deeply, hold space for discernment, and help gain clarity and make a plan. Whatever the case, I’m here for you. Let’s do this - together.

I work most with individuals, leaders and organizations that are navigating the following:

Individuals and Leaders

  • Approaching or considering major life & career transitions 

  • Considering or planning for  a sabbatical

Organizations and Boards

  • Navigating an anticipated or current leadership change

  • Recognizing the need to pause, reflect, and assess their path forward

  • Seeking to develop policies to: build organizational culture and support flourishing of staff and volunteers
