When Life is Uncertain
Coaching is the Language of Hope
Change is inevitable. Grief and loss can be some of life’s most profound challenges, and still they also offer a unique opportunity for transformation. When faced with loss —whether at work, the passing of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or any other change, navigating the crossroads can make the difference. My mission is to support clients through transformation, coaching them one step at a time. Coaching is the language of hope.

I have worked with Barb for the past 2 years. She was able to help me evaluate my life as a whole and move forward in the areas of home, finances, career, health & wellness, and relationships. An area that I was struggling with was alternative job possibilities. Barb was able to guide me through this area and help facilitate me making a really hard decision.
Once I was able to make the career decision, it allowed me to focus more of my energy on home, health & wellness, and relationships.
