If you still have a few questions or want to talk through whether this coaching experience is the right fit, I’d be happy to connect for a brief 20-minute Q&A Call

A compass is a tool used to navigate the direction you want to go by detecting the Earth’s magnetic field. 

In this CREATE YOUR VALUES COMPASS masterclass — I teach you to create your own, personal compass used to identify your own “energetic field” as you navigate your life’s direction.  By energetic field I mean your inner voice, inner wisdom, intuition or listening to your body.

Going through any life transition can be extremely disorienting.  Sometimes, it truly feels like the world has crumbled beneath your feet. 

To regain your footing and reorient yourself you must reassess your core values.  Not your core values from last year or a decade ago or back in the 1900s- but those you have now, present day.  

Do you know what they are? Can you name your top 5 values in 30 seconds or less?

Just as we individually grow and change over time, our core values will evolve and change.  This is an unbelievably powerful and empowering realization.  

To see and understand that WE as humans – and our accompanying core values – will change over time is the first step to re-finding your footing.  It’s the permission you need to breathe again and remind yourself you’re not doing anything “wrong.”  You are right on track.

Masterclass held Central Time:
Tues, 12:00 – 1:00 pm
Thurs, 5:00 – 6:00 pm

Resources for the Journey

No one should have to navigate questions of faith, identity, belonging, or healing alone. These are some of the books, documentaries, podcast episodes, and other resources that have shaped my own understanding and supported both me and those I work with.

You don’t need to read or watch everything. Simply begin with whatever speaks to you. Trust that the right resource will find you at the right time.
