Frequently Asked Questions


What is coaching?

Coaching is partnering with individuals in a thought provoking, creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal & professional potential. It is development dedicated to growing you so you can overcome obstacles and challenges. Coaching is a lot of listening and asking powerful questions, focused on your future.

Who is coaching for?

It is for anyone who is at a crossroads or an inflection point in their life, and seeking an accountability ally to help motivate them to maximize their current path or determine a new one. Anyone seeking a new career,  an industry shift, in a major transition (a move, relationship, new job, etc). Coaching is for anyone who is seeking a more "resonant" and fulfilled version of their life.

What is the process?

  • Start the work: We’ll kick off with a complimentary 30 minute session to give you a sampling of coaching. From here, we’ll determine a cadence to meet and the right package to move forward with. We’ll begin our partnership with a deep dive discovery session where we’ll evaluate higher order goals and get into the good stuff. 

  • Coaching process: We’ll meet virtually for 60 minute sessions. We'll begin our program with foundational work that is self knowledge for you and knowledge for me. All of which will inform how we approach your goals. Following our foundational work, any free form coaching sessions look like this: you bring the topic; I bring powerful questions to help expand perspectives or help you feel ‘unstuck' in either a professional or personal circumstance. I’ll help identify your saboteurs (the voices in your head that hold you back from being your most courageous self), and will relentlessly challenge and champion you. You’ll have homework after each session which will continue to deepen the work between sessions. We’ll stay connected and have follow-ups throughout. 

  • Results: You will have a more clear understanding for what you really want next [in your career or personal life] and the actionable steps and confidence needed to bring you closer to it.

How long will I need coaching?

Clients tend to start with a 3-6 month program, adding on sessions as needed. This is entirely dependent on what you are wanting to work on. Because we are aiming to get the results you desire, the time together will be dependent on the person. A minimum of three months allows ample time for us to build trust, unblock limiting beliefs, take action and have results to reflect upon.

How do you work with CPG clients?

I work with professionals looking to segue in or out of the CPG industry and our partnership is tailored to their unique goals. Many clients are seeking support in setting realistic career goals, guidance on acquiring new skills, help building a professional network, and/or support positioning their resume and LinkedIn.

How much does coaching / cost?

Find the support that fits you

Whether you're navigating a career pivot, building something new, or seeking deeper clarity, I offer two types of packages:

Career coaching + consulting for hands-on support with professional transitions, and coaching-only for inner work focused on values, mindset, and life direction.

Every package includes thoughtfully tailored exercises and tools to deepen our work and support real-life momentum between sessions.

*Once your container is complete, if you’re desiring continued support, we move to individual sessions.

How often will we meet?

Depending on your schedule, we can meet 3x/month, every other week or monthly for each session. We will meet via google hangout or phone and each session duration is 60 minutes. 

My clients are located all over the world and I am flexible with scheduling. My calendar is open Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 10am-4:30pm PST, with limited hours on Tuesday and Friday. I recommend clients book their next 2 sessions in advance to guarantee their preferred time slot. 

Do we have to meet virtually or can we use the phone?

Phone is absolutely fine. I just ask that my clients devote full attention to our sessions and limit distractions where possible.

Do you give advice?

I guide our conversations through empathetic listening, curiosity and powerful questions. If necessary for the client, consulting / advisory is available. This will be discussed on a 1:1 basis. 

Will there be homework? What are the expectations?

You'll start to find that it's outside of our calls where a lot of the magic happens. You will have light homework following most sessions. This can range from an inquiry to journal on, a challenge I've offered you, listening to a podcast, or a specific task to complete. 

Action steps that you feel inspired to take will also organically unfold from our conversations. 

Do you guarantee results?

I cannot guarantee results although from experience, I do know that an energetic time and financial commitment will naturally get things moving in the right direction. What you put into this you will get out of it.
