Questions and Answers



What is causal coaching?

It is the process of identifying the root cause of what it is that is bringing us pain or keeping us from making change. We believe that it is our environment and circumstances, where we have little to no control, when it really all begins with our thoughts.

I use a coaching model (STEER) that helps you to find the connection between thoughts in your head and emotions that prevent you from creating the outcomes that you want. Once you begin to see the relationship, it becomes easier to create thoughts that will move you in the direction you want to go.

You walk away with a mastery of that model that you can apply to any challenge you face going forward.

What is the difference between therapy and coaching?

There are a lot of similarities. The biggest difference is that coaching is focused on forward motion, and changing your tomorrow, more than digging into past history. I once saw it described this way: When you need extended healing, seek a therapist. When you're ready for the creation stage of life, a coach is the answer.

How do I know which of your programs is right for me?

In 1:1 coaching, you are getting direct and personal support to uncover thought errors and apply the teaching. It will always have a greater impact.

The audio series will help you to understand many of the same principles, but the application piece and uncovering all of the limiting beliefs will be up to you. The series will absolutely give you new awareness and cause you to think twice about things going forward. But big changes to thinking, emotions and behavior probably require the 1:1 component (which of course is always an option after you complete the course as well).

What does a 30 minute free session look like?

It can look however you’d like it to. Everyone is needing something a little different. It can be a brief coaching on a specific issue that you are struggling with, or you can ask me questions about coaching and my process, and just kind of see if we are a good fit. It is not any kind of high pressure sell. I know that I can only help those who are really committed to the process and am never looking to force a relationship.

What if I know I’m ready to start a coaching package now?

Then let’s get started! Sometimes it’s best to just jump in. You can purchase your package and get your sessions set up on my scheduling page. We’ll work out how to get you and extra 30 minutes somewhere, in exchange for the free pre-call that you are waiving up front.

What are your qualifications as a coach?

I am professionally certified as a Life and Mindset Coach l, and hold a bachelors degree, and other expert designations in communications, human change behavior and continuous improvement.

Before starting my practice, I spent decades as a coach and consultant in those areas for front line teams through executive level leaders in a Fortune 100 company

Some level of coaching has been my jam for a long time!

I’ve also faced my own share of life challenges, and made big changes in my life as a result of my study and understanding around the workings of our mind. I know, first hand, how much control we give away and want to share that with as many women as possible.


How do we meet for 1:1 coaching?

All sessions are held over Zoom. You will receive a link when booking sessions through my scheduling page.

What all is included in a 1:1 coaching package?

The current package consists of 12 weekly, 45 minute sessions. You receive a recording of each conversation and a degree of interim coaching, via email or an app called Voxer if you are struggling.

Do you only coach midlife women?

I focus mostly on midlife women because I am close to the kinds of issues that challenge us at that phase of life. And because it so often becomes a time of resignation instead of the celebration that it should be. I am, however, certified as a general life and mindset coach and able to work with women of any age. The root causes of the issues we face are actually very universal.

Do you offer group workshops or presentations?

Absolutely! I’m happy to customize basic teachings around mindset to your audience, team or social gathering.
