Meet Our Coaches

For 25 years I have worked in a variety of leadership roles with all ages, from children to adults. I often found myself asking questions to help people discover how they truly desired to grow. I love to encourage and motivate people to reach their goals and realize their potential. When I discovered coaching, I realized that it was a way to take my communication strengths and use them to help others as they navigate transition, go through difficult times, seek ways to improve themselves or set goals and next steps. As a certified coach, I have worked with college students as they navigate their transition into independence and adulthood. I have coached team leaders through staff changes and through strategies to align their teams towards a common vision. I have also coached a variety of adults as they make life decisions, work through relationship challenges, and find work/life balance.

Over the course of being in ministry since 2003, I considered myself to be a person who would coach individuals on a regular basis. Equipped with empathy and the ability to come alongside individuals was something that came naturally to me. Yet, when I was introduced to what coaching really is in April of 2020, I realized that I had a lot to learn and was excited to do so.

In May of 2020, I began looking further into the International Coaching Federation and was amazed at how big of an industry it was and the resources and education that was available. I quickly began to study and further educate myself in the approaches to coaching. Coinciding with my training that I received through the Emerge Coaching Network, I began my own coaching business. After successfully completing the program in December of 2020, I have coached several individuals and observed their growth and confidence in the goals that they are now achieving. It is wonderful to be a part of an industry that brings hope to so many lives as we walk through things together.

Ideal Coaching Client  |  My ideal coaching client is someone who is willing to move forward into the goals they have for themselves, even if the goals are not clearly defined. The opportunity for growth is immense with an individual who recognizes their capacity for change.

For 34 years I have been actively involved in pastoral ministry and am currently ordained with the Assemblies of God. For the past two years, in addition to co-pastoring with my husband, I have been the middle school Bible teacher at Life Christian Academy in Kissimmee, FL. My years in ministry and teaching, as well as raising five children and experiencing the loss of a teen daughter, have provided me with unique experiences and preparation that led me to Leadership Coach training, which I completed in May 2021. I have been coaching clients to help them focus on the goals they want to achieve and to support them in following through with the steps and actions they discover on our coaching journey. I have been able to coach and help various clients:

• Identify goals and work towards achieving their goals while gaining new insight into themselves
• Navigate the pain of loss and grief
• Manage the stress and challenges of caring for aging parents
• Discover strengths and apply those to finding a fulfilling career

All churches are made up of imperfect people, both pastors and congregants, which can lead to difficult and sometimes painful situations. After 34 years of pastoral church ministry, I can offer understanding and support to those who have faced challenges in ministry and can work with them to discover insight into themselves and support them in moving forward with purpose. I am passionate in helping people succeed in reaching their goals and achieving personal growth. Having personally experienced the grief and pain of the loss of a child, I offer empathy, understanding and support to those who are navigating their journey of grief and loss.

Ideal Coaching Client  |  My ideal coaching client is someone who is open to new approaches and seeking a coach to come alongside them as they explore their life and work towards achieving their goals.
