I know it’s a leap of faith to entrust your personal problems to someone you don't know. While the Internet is an efficient way for me to introduce myself to prospective clients, it does create some hurdles when it comes to establishing credibility.

It may help you to know that I am a Certified Professional Coach with  a decade of coaching experience. I studied with various coaching schools and organizations and achieved my Masters in Energy Leadership with iPEC. I've also studied Nutrition with Precision Nutrition, Divorce Prevention with Robbins Madanes, and Holistic Cancer Coaching. I have 20 years of experience in various other settings, including Crisis Text Line, Red Cross Disaster Action Team and non-profit organizations and churches. I am also regularly invited to lead team coaching experiences with well know corporations throughout the United States and Canada.

​I offer my clients a  hands-on coaching experience: I work with a small number of clients and provide a high level of personal attention.

Personally, I look at life as an opportunity to explore the leading edge and roads less traveled in a way that is meaningful to me. I love travel, road trips, hiking in the mountains, reading, cooking and eating delicious food.

In 2003 I immigrated to the USA from South Africa with my husband and children. In 2017 I moved to a small-backwoods-hillbilly town in the mountains (I say this affectionately) with my husband of 26 years, my daughter, and 2 dogs. My two adult sons are working and studying in Florida, and I have a son in heaven.

Why choose 1 Life by Design?

The coaching industry is full of self appointed "coaches" that come and go. I pride myself on integrity, providing an effective coaching program and complete transparency. I want my clients to be successful. That can only be achieved through an honest and open relationship. I encourage you to call and speak with me personally. I will give you straightforward and honest answers.
