educational empowerment
Folding soul into YOUR Education
For so many students, their education has been a journey away from their authentic self, their Soul self. As a teen or young adult, this can become a crisis for the student and their parents. This crisis is an opportunity! This is where I step in.
My goal is to help student clients unlock their gifts and leverage these talents by learning and using life skills and developing greater self-awareness. In so doing, I help this young person to regain balance and uncover the purpose that their Soul self wants to fulfill.
In the student coaching process, I bring to bear all of my experience, expertise and wisdom from thirty years of working with children, ages 5 to 21. We engage in a unique process in which we work together towards a common goal. Not unlike a coach for an athlete, I work to help you identify your purpose, guide you, and celebrate your successes with you. All the while, you will be learning more about yourself.
Parents, I am here to support you in shifting your own beliefs around what success means for your child. It can be a painful as a parent when all that you’ve been taught is not working for you with your child. I am here to support you in finding a new path that leaves you feeling encouraged, supported, and confident.

what does a STUDENT coaching session look like?
I use a flexible framework for each session in which we cover any of the following:
Explore a variety of options for success in life
Learn about inspirational figures who’ve created great success in unconventional ways
If needed, organizational skills
How to work smarter not harder
Determining one's Learning Style
Developing a toolbox of skills for cultivating inner peace and calm (managing stress and anxiety)
Healthy Living
I address these topics as the opportunities present. For example, if you are feeling overwhelmed, we learn a quick and easy breathing technique that really works.
With my support, you will start to take more ownership for your life and learning, and will eventually feel more empowered and confident.
Let’s explore if we are a good fit for each other.
PARENTS: AN educational revolution is here!
The pandemic has given us all an opportunity to pivot, change, and rethink how we live our lives including how our children live theirs. We all have an unprecedented opportunity right now to reshape and remake what school and education is all about for our children and our world.
Educational systems all over the world have been pushing children harder and harder in a fear-based race to make their nation ahead of the rest. In the meantime, the rates of childhood anxiety and depression have skyrocketed in the United States.
Suicide rates amongst teens is at an all-time high and the U.S. struggles with an opioid addiction epidemic. These are all related and connected in my view. When children are under constant performance review at school, in studios, and on the fields these are not unlikely consequences of that. All of this is not only unnecessary but disastrous in the end.
Children need to be allowed to grow and unfold. They need freedom to become who they were put here to be. When too many adult agendas drive the daily lives of children it is no longer about the children but about the adults.
We have an opportunity to make change!
YOU have an opportunity as a parent to define what is best for your child, to take this power back into your hands instead of following the status quo!
YOU have an opportunity as a teacher to speak up and tell the world all of the things you’ve been required to do over the years that you know in your heart are not right and are not what’s best, but you’ve had to close your mouth and keep your job.
YOU have an incredible opportunity as a student to be the driver of your destiny and your learning experience!
And I am here to help in this revolution!
If you are a parent who would like support and help in navigating all of the options for your child’s education during the pandemic, then I would love to help you and support you in this! I will help you clarify your goals, define what is most important to you and your child, explore your options, and define a direction. I’ll be there to support you as you implement your chosen path.
My promise to you is that you will walk away from the fear-based messages in the media, and walk away from worry, anguish, and anxiety around your child’s education. You will feel empowered and energized! You will build joy and excitement around this opportunity!
