Passionate About Inspiring & Empowering People
Why hire me as your Empowerment Coach-Transition Partner?
Over the years, I've stood between two priorities and choices, feeling sandwiched and wanting clarity about which decision to take. Residing in an uncomfortable comfort zone, I uncovered my truth: the fear that each potential path was perilous! Then I realized another compelling truth: I could stand in my fear and do nothing, or feel my fear and do something. So I chose the more "dangerous" route and redesigned a life aligned with my core values.
​
Redesigning my life followed a progression—from loss to change to transition to adjustment—and it involved so much grieving. I mourned many life losses: my couple, family, home, friends, pets, possessions, community, and dreams. Facing such a life-altering event meant changing my perspective and breaking HUGE leaps into small steps, sometimes moving through my transition one moment at a time. It was a painful yet bittersweet process, filled with many more gains. I learned to listen to my inner voice and trust that life unfolds according to the miracle it is and a greater plan, not necessarily my plan!
​
InfiniteU Coaching & Consulting grew out of my life's work, empowering you to reach deep inside for your innate knowing and move past whatever anchors and holds you back from growing forward, especially during a life transition. If I could experience such a life-changing transition, and grow from it, what might that look like for other people? I wanted to leverage my learning to help individuals experiencing loss: career/job, family, partner, fertility, mobility, lifestyle, dreams, home, and more.
