If you are wondering what coaching actually is, you’re not alone. It’s a question I get often—and it’s a good one.
For me, coaching is about creating a space where you feel safe to explore what’s really going on beneath the surface. It’s about helping you get clear on what you truly want, identifying what’s been holding you back, and working together to shift those patterns.
As your coach, I walk beside you—not to tell you what to do, but to help you access your own clarity, confidence, and direction. I offer support, accountability, and a new lens to see yourself and your circumstances with greater honesty and compassion.
Coaching is not therapy, advice-giving, or a quick fix. It’s a process of transformation that invites you to take empowered steps toward the life you want—with guidance, encouragement, and tools designed to help you get there.

Coaching with me is designed to be flexible and supportive, so it can meet you where you are—both emotionally and practically. Whether it’s over Zoom, on the phone, or in person, I offer different options so you can choose the setting that makes you feel most at ease.
Some people begin coaching with a clear goal in mind. Others might think they know what they want to work on, only to realize something else is pulling at them underneath. And sometimes, you just feel stuck or unsure—and that’s completely okay. You do not have to have it all figured out before we begin.
My role is to help guide you through the process, to ask the right questions, and to hold space for you as we uncover the deeper patterns and possibilities together. You bring your real, honest self—and I’ll bring tools, insight, and compassion to support your growth.

Empathos Coaching is where academic research meets real life. After years of teaching at the university level, I took my analytical research on empathy and created the Circle of Empathy, a three-stage process rooted in self-awareness, perspective shifting, and intentional action.
But this is not just theory. I have lived it. My own experiences with people pleasing, poor boundaries, and choosing the wrong partners are what led me to do this work. Empathos is different because it combines research driven tools with the emotional honesty of someone who has been there. I help women not only understand their patterns but finally break them.
