Introduction: I am a life coach for women, and the primary ways my coaching stands out from what others do lies in my coaching philosophy and the advanced tools I use. At Freedom Junkie, we say, "Free Your Mind and Free Your Life!" This is an important philosophy, because the biggest roadblock to clients' success is their own mindset and limiting beliefs. (Note: for more testimonials you can also see my website).
The good news is this can change for the better! I use a proprietary system in my Freedom Sessions that provides my clients with the tools to permanently alter limiting beliefs and mindsets. The provides for sustainable change, and tools that my clients can access themselves long after our coaching sessions have ended.
In addition, I have found that while clients can create beautiful visions and dreams in coaching, without the courage and confidence to take the action to make those dreams rarely manifest. This is why I also focus on cultivating courage and confidence (ziji!) with specific tools I have developed over the years.
Together, these long-lasting mindset changes and the courage and confidence to take the action necessary create deep, true transformation. This radically increases my success rates. Just ask any of my clients!
While most coaches went through a coaching training of sorts as I did, I ALSO bring an additional 15+ years of experience working with women of all ages as a climbing guide and nurse-midwife, which allows me to have invaluable and rare insights into the life of a woman at all stages of her life and in various circumstance: and this is a benefit of coaching with me at Freedom Junkie. Through this life experience, I bring to my coaching even more tools to work with, uncommon perspectives, and the ability to offer uniquely effective, high quality programs that can serve a woman wherever she is at: whether she wants to coach on the phone, join my Adventure Mastermind, complete one of my online programs, have a coaching retreat in the mountains, or participate in one of my unique workshops, for example.
I also have experience with teens and young women (17-24) that many coaches don't have. Some coaches even believe teens are too young to have formed their values yet and therefore don't want to work with them!
In addition to my excellent training through the well-respected Coaches Training Institute and studying with mentors such as Martha Beck and Brooke Castillo, I worked at Outward Bound over 8 years leading 7 to 30-day expeditions in the US and abroad, as well as guiding all-women's expeditions and courses for both adolescents and adults. I also worked as a Family Nurse Practitioner and Nurse-Midwife for 8 years and helped women through their life transitions as adolescents, young adults, motherhood, mid-life, and menopause, gaining important insight into their lives and the unique challenges they face as they move through these stages of life.
I have as my personal mission to help empower women to discover their power and live their truth.
My job doesn't feel like work. I am able to spend my life energy doing something I find important and worthwhile and honored to be able to do. I love working with my clientele and seeing them create the lives they have always wanted to live. For me, this life is too precious to settle for "good enough." There is nothing more rewarding than being a part of the process for another human to live their greatest life and bring their gifts to the world. It is an honor and a passion to be a part of the journey.
I also appreciate how working with clients constantly contributes to my own growth. Coaching people to live a wildly fulfilling life hold me accountable to doing that myself, and I am blessed to work with amazing people every day.
