Individual Development

We love working with individuals to help them understand WHO they are and WHY it matters. What are your core needs, drives, talents, communication style, stress triggers and solutions? How do YOU show up in the world with your EQ skills? Clients have frequent “Aha” insights and gain actionable steps that are often life changing.

My Story

Nothing in my life has gone in a straight line and probably never will.

So, here’s my story with some of the bigger twists and turns. Why I do what I do, what I love, and why it matters.

First, I’m a lifelong learner and student of leadership – servant-leadership to be specific. As much as I teach and facilitate, I spend equal time in my own learning and development.

I’m passionate about people and the potential to work better together. I’m naturally empathetic – and like all our gifts, it’s a blessing and a curse. However, it serves me well with clients. Because I’ve been there – in the good, the bad, the ugly, and the transformational.

I don’t take my clients anywhere that I haven’t been myself.

I’m a lifelong fan of Swiss psychologist, Carl Jung – and grew up in a family where we used Psychological Type to navigate our (many) family challenges.
