All the benefits for a Coach without the annoying whistle...
I have been called a dynamic Professional Certified Coach (PCC) but I also answer to Career Developer and "Brander" of individuals. I inspire my clients, collaborate with them and occasionally kick-them-in-the-ass.
I bring powerful insight and a grounded presence to each of my clients. Expect to laugh. Expect an honest approach. And expect to get out of your comfort zone. However, if you expect me to hold your hand and coddle you, chances are you have friends, family or someone else for that job. I will call you on your excuses and with support, catapult you past them.
Don't hire me because you think I am perfect. I am not. I have made all the same mistakes you have made, but I learned from them and decided to make all new mistakes in the future...and none of the old. That is the difference in working with me. I will help you see how to move past your old mistakes and keep them from cropping up again...and again...and again.
Snapshot of my experience includes:
- Survivor of parental divorce, diverse family structure, family alcoholism, and being left at the altar;
- 20+ years of playing "nice with others" in the outdoor retail and manufacturing industries navigating egos, drama queens, and unstable markets;
- Awarded the Outdoor Industries Women's Coalition Snowsports' Pioneer of the Year Award in 2010 for my achievement in mentoring and leading young women;
- Expert in generating champions who inspire others;
- Business Pioneer on the cutting edge of change, development, and testing the boundaries of what is possible;
- Former Board Member of the Outdoor Industries Women's Coalition focused on providing power, influence, and opportunity for women in the outdoor-related business;
- Sister, Daughter, and Girlfriend who challenges myself everyday to remain authentic, present and grounded;
- And an athlete striving to understand my body, my capacity and my ability.
I ascribe to the highest level of ethical and professional standards in the Coaching Industry. My professional training has included Coachville, LLC, a licensed training provider accredited by the International Coaches Federation, as well as the Coaching Center of Vermont, a premier coaching resource for professionals. I am also thoroughly enjoying getting my Master's Degree with Robert Nash in the Interdisciplinary Studies Program at the University of Vermont, a public Ivy League school that we are lucky enough to have here in the heart of Burlington.
My associations include the Coaching Center of Vermont; where you can partner with Coaches, Experts and Thought Leaders to create something better as well as with GumTree Growth; a haven for small business professionals and entrepreneurial consultants who are on a mission to define their life’s work without compromising their whole life balance or their sense of humor.
My life is based in Burlington, Vermont where I am a firm believer in "getting outside and playing".
Excuses beware, I am on a full time mission to hunt and stomp them out for good! You ready?
