MY STORY
The Heart of My Mission
What does a coaching session look like? Imagine a conversation that leads you to inspirations, answers, and discoveries. I aim to help you discover your visions and goals. I don't advise, correct, or counsel. Sessions include a series of questions that assist you in clarifying a vision and the necessary steps toward achieving your new way.
I'm an active, inquisitive person. I've always felt the drive to discover new things and hone my gifts. Along the way, I met mentors and guides. I discovered that these companions were vital to my growth. I want to help you discover your goals and the steps along the way. I'm a certified coach, dedicated to helping you reach your personal and professional vision. I'm also trained with a focus in equipping leaders shape their discipleship goals. I have over 30 years of experience mentoring and equipping clergy and secular professionals.
