You’re unfurling. Hooray!

Let’s be clear : your unfurling is an incredible opportunity to tell the truth. Your truth.

Telling the truth means inviting courage and clarity to the process of investigating who you are and how you’re living your life. It means looking fear straight in the eye. And strengthening your self-love muscles — the ones you use to steer this process.

Unfurling is you stepping more powerfully into the version of you that has been waiting in the wings long enough.

Coaching is phenomenally effective when you are hungry for change. Within the safety of our coaching relationship, you invite change by working first within your inner landscape, and then making your way outward. You build a framework that will support you in identifying what you want, and in mapping the way forward.

As your coach, I see you.

I welcome your honesty and hold space for what you bring forth. Together, you and I co-create a safe environment for you to explore new directions.

Along the way, I’ll help you learn from your challenges, and I’ll watch you step more fully into your power. You’ll merge what we uncover in our sessions with your life out there, and it will transform you. Joy and fulfillment will show up, pushing confusion and dissatisfaction to the background. You’ll have new tools to look at old challenges that will turn up again and again, only now you’ll find that you have effective ways to deal with them.

It’s up to you to decide the playing field for our work together. It may be your career, your relationships, or your life purpose – it’s the part of you where your hunger is strongest. The place your unfurling lives.

Amy’s coaching is a remarkable tapestry of courage, intuition and love. By minute 3, she had catalyzed a breakthrough for me, through her keen listening and bold questions. By minute 25, I’d experienced several powerful realizations and shifts, each effortlessly unfolded by Amy’s skillful coaching. In one session, I moved from “stuck” to “charging ahead” in a central aspect of my career. Give yourself the gift of working with Amy! – Tara Sophia Mohr, author and speaker, San Francisco, CA

Expect these results

Coaching is equal parts inner journey and outer action. I set the stage for you to dive deep and reclaim your truth by clearing away outdated beliefs. First we’ll celebrate what makes you YOU; your values and your strengths, your passions and your gifts. These gems become your guides, helping you navigate the uncertain terrain of your inner landscape. As you begin to get out of your own way, you find that fear and your inner critic — the voice that holds you back from becoming who and what you truly want to be — can be seen as a part of the process rather than a deal breaker.

I want you to recognize your brilliance, and to use it. Once you’ve rooted yourself in your authenticity, you’ll begin to see what’s unfurling in you and you will nurture it. Your unfurling will bring you:

Clarity, vision and new perspective
Answers and action plans for “what’s next” in terms of career, relationship or life
Healthier relationships
Ditching limiting beliefs and old habits that don’t serve you
Better self-care and balance
A boost in self-esteem and self-confidence

I have helped many women figure out how to listen to their own persistent whispers. My clients have changed careers, ended unfulfilling relationships, regained confidence, and written their own job descriptions. They use what they rediscover through our work to stare down demons, gain clarity and motivation, and kickstart the next chapter in their lives. The one on thriving.

Amy has a direct style that creates a safe, compassionate space in which to process the stuff of life. Her deep-dive approach invites me to access my own intuitive wisdom, and after a session, my perspective is inevitably expanded. Result? I’m quicker to see choices as well as move forward with more focus. Big thumbs up! – Lynn Baldwin-Rhodes (Power Chicks International), Seattle WA

Private coaching

Hire me. I’m here to shine a light on what’s unfurling and what’s in the way. Private coaching is like having a compassionate mirror, a sounding board, and an ally — all fully committed to your success. You’re ready for coaching if you are hungry for change and serious about rolling up your sleeves. Further clues that you’re ready: you get butterflies in your belly when you think about our first call, you find yourself nodding when you read the words on this page, you are eager for input on stuff you’ve kept hidden long enough. Act on this.

To get started, contact me for a complimentary 30 minute session. We’ll discuss the basics of coaching and why you want to hire a coach. By the end of our call we will know if coaching is for you, and if we’re a good fit for each other. This session is offered at no cost and with no obligation.

What will private coaching look like?

(It’s not scary. Promise!) We’ll talk via phone or Skype three times per month, 60 minutes each time. In our sessions, my powerful questions lead to your answers, which lead to deeper discoveries. Trust and vulnerability are earned and revered. I listen, I notice, I hold space, and I share with you what I hear you saying — and not saying. You adopt new tools and techniques. We laugh. Maybe we’ll cry. We create an alliance that supports you in an ongoing way. Our conversations are targeted to what’s most important in your journey, and we dig beneath the surface to find the information you need to navigate your path.

The coaching relationship is extraordinary and powerful.

Burst Into Bloom Group Coaching - Get on the list for upcoming sessions!

Do you have an idea that’s burning a hole in your heart, something you know will be life-changing? Is there a novel that wants to be written, a business waiting to be launched, a gig that’s tailor-made for you? Are you ready to commit to that meditation program, restructure your eating habits, learn to dance? Doesn’t matter if your idea is big or small, if it’s an internal goal or one that will impact the entire world.

Burst Into Bloom group coaching is a six week program designed to take you out of your idea and into inspired action. In this group we’ll discover the alchemy of you and your Big Idea, and it will enable you to move forward with ease and confidence.

Because of who I am the group will be equal parts deep-dive conversation around topics that might make you squirm, exercises that provoke instant insight, belly laughter, and quiet time for processing. I create a safe container for the work you’ll be doing, which is sacred. Our time together will be enlightening, healing and productive.

The program really inspired me to get into action with an art project I’d been imagining for a very long time. Amy’s coaching and the group structure of the course gave me so much inspiration and a very real, tangible time frame for my project! I loved the support, the inspiration and the deeper looks at my idea, my vision and my fears….all of it helped me get clearer on my project, and really helped me take action to make it happen. Even if you don’t think you are ready to bloom….bring the seed of an idea…no matter how small, and watch it develop, grow and bloom with Amy’s expert tending! – Tifin Kutch Dillon, life coach, San Jose, CA

At the end of the session you will leave with deeper insight into your life today and tools to help you invite the change you wish.

Soul Strategy sessions are fabulous as standalones; you’ll have a game-plan and some newfound resolve to move in the direction your soul wants for you. The call will be recorded so you will have an mp3 to listen to again and again.
