What is Conscious Lifestyle Coaching?

Conscious Lifestyle Coaching is a sacred space for those on the paths of self-development, healing, and spirituality. Through significant lifestyle changes, authentic embodiment, and deep present awareness, we are able to transition and ascend to our highest and chosen life paths. I will not provide you answers or solutions to your journey, but I hope to inspire, motivate, and empower deep knowing and learning of your True Self by sharing my own stories and lessons. Through connection and awareness, or awakened consciousness, we can then set intentional action steps and goals to transform our lives to live our dreams. Much of my journey I share with you flowers from deep immersions and practicums in world healing arts and medicines. 

What can I benefit from the services you offer?

Life coaching has been shown to enhance self-confidence, satisfaction of major life choices, awareness of values, connection to life purpose, and individual goal setting and attainment (Lefdahl-Davis et al., 2018). Yoga, meditation, and mindful exercise are known for healing anxiety and depression with no apparent negative effects (Atezaz Saeed et al., 2019). Conscious Lifestyle Coaching sessions offer healthy and non-invasive tools to reduce stress and make healthier and holistic lifestyle choices while bringing clarity, peace, and presence to your day. While there are way too many coaches and guides out there in the universe, I believe that genuine connection and "vibes" ultimately create the perfect match for a transformative and fun experience. If you have arrived here, then I welcome you, and the light in me honors the light in you.

How many sessions do I need?

It is estimated that it takes 2-8 months to break and form a new habit (Lally et al., 2009). I encourage making self-loving care, exercise, an organic diet, deep connections, authentic expressions, meditation, and mindfulness a daily part of your regular self-care routine. My goal is to empower you to make your lifestyle your medicine. Start with weekly sessions, followed by once a month, and then stop by whenever you need a Conscious Lifestyle boost on your journey through life.

What is a session like?

Clients often experience profound awareness, clarity, and peace once given guidance and sacred space to be fully present and embodied. You may experience strong release of emotion. Nothing is ever forced, and guidance is gentle but directly focused on your goals and intentions determined at the start of your session.

How can you help me heal from my trauma?

Conscious Lifestyle Coaching is ideal for those who have already processed severe trauma, or currently having support by licensed professionals. In our sessions, we do not dive deep into the past and what has already happened; we acknowledge the present, and look to the future and what is possible to create. While I wish I can support all folks, I am a strong advocate for professional therapy and critical doctoral care, and will not hesitate to refer clients to those avenues for healing.

Is this therapy?

No this is not therapy. I am not a therapist; I am a lifestyle coach, author, poet, speaker, and spiritual healer. I specialize in mindfulness. We will not process past or current trauma together. I am here to help you remove fear and blockages on your path to your life goals and dreams based on accountability to the best choices you can make here and now, the present moment.  I will ask hard questions that some individuals may find triggering. I will hold you compassionately accountable to achieve your goals, upon agreement that we are both imperfect humans with dreams worthy and capable of manifestation.

Where are you located?

All services, with the exception of the retreats, are currently offered online and in person! I am willing to travel to destinations for live events, workshops, speaking engagements, and sometimes private guided sessions. I am currently based in the Asheville, North Carolina area and travel to Florida often.

Why are sessions so expensive?

For our session to yield profound transformational healing, there must be an energetic sowing (commitment and intention) on your part that will hold you highly accountable to what you learn and recieve from our session. It also holds me accountable to offer you my most professional service. Furthermore, you are "purchasing" a sacred space, or seed, for healing that we will honor and respect with our direct time and investments. Conscious Lifestyle Coaching offers free and affordable resources to take advantage of until you are ready to dive deeper. Occasionally, I will take clients for free or by donation. Please inquire if you have special circumstances.
