Start today to find a path forward.
Life is hard. Human beings were not designed to go through the journey of life alone. Everyone needs a community of people to help them maneuver the ups and downs, adversities and challenges that are part of life. Do you have those people in your life? After leaving the corporate world after many, many years, I became a life coach because I care about people and have a great desire to help others live their best life. Having the human connection with others is so vital to living a fulfilled and happy life.
A New Space Life Coaching is designed to help you find the space you need to make your life the best it can be. What are you struggling with? Grief? Transition? Relationships? Addiction Recovery? Overall well-being? No matter what your struggle, there is a path you can take to help you determine the roadblocks and learn how to move past them. What do you want your future to look like and how do you plan to get there? Having a life coach is the first step in determining goals that will help you move forward and accomplish the things that are important to you. I would love to walk alongside you on the path to self-discovery and work with you to identify and develop your next steps in moving toward your best life.

The timeline for results varies depending on individual goals and commitment.
