Did your life not turn out the way you thought it would or should?

Stewing about what has been, the injustice of it, or bad luck, even if it is true, is not a productive way forward.

Shoulds and supposed-to's don't help.

Victimhood doesn't either.

Even if you are a victim of something - chronic disease, a toxic workplace, divorce, job loss, choices that didn't turn out, regret weighs you down and drags you backwards.

It turns out regret is optional.

Coaching and mindfulness are a way forward.

They help you accept and .... feel angry, frustrated, disappointed, sad, and/or anything else you might want to feel.

They help you choose to feel it.

And then move through it.

So you can connect with clarity about how you want to respond, not react.

And choose how you want to move forward,

And choose what you want to create

Coaching and mindfulness help you figure out the kind of doctor, mother, daughter, wife, friend, advocate, speaker, practice owner, and ... you want to be.

And they help you grow the courage to start making it happen.

One thoughtful, deliberate, and brave step at a time.

As a coach, I don't tell you how to live your life. I help you create a life you want to live.

I see the coaching experience as like the gold glue in the Japanese art form of Kintsugi.

Kintsugi is a technique where broken pottery is repaired with gold.

The end product is more beautiful and valuable than it was before it was broken.

Broken relationships, lives, and medical systems -- any disappointment is not the end.

It can be simply a substrate for something even more beautiful and valuable - if you know how to mend it with gold.
