We believe VUCA times (velocity/unknowns/complexity/ambiguity)
require an internal locus of control or be easily set off course.

Sheltering in place highlights how adept we are at spending time with ourselves.
Social justice unveils the power of the story beneath the given story.
More than ever, human to human interaction depends on the capacity to self-modulate.

Unless you take the reins in your life, the world makes decisions for you.
It takes incredible courage, grit and grace to build the self connection leading to authentic voice, choices and leadership presence.

As a coach I know you are whole and perfect just as you are. There’s nothing to fix.
We offer ways to live into the promise you are.

Talent
noun
strengths, flair, aptitude, facility, gift, knack, technique, touch, bent, ability, expertise, capacity, faculty; strength, forte, genius, brilliance; dexterity, skill, artistry.
