Retreat to Advance. In order to progress, it is essential to pause, reflect, be inspired, get clear... and then and only then...step forward. After a time of advancing, it is again time to pause, look at the feedback we are receiving, reflect, shift beliefs or perceptions that are in our way, and then advance again, perhaps in a revised direction.

Our culture rarely acknowledges this essential, natural process. We are taught that to be successful we must advance nonstop. Because of this, it takes tremendous discipline to proactively create retreat opportunities for ourselves. If we choose to ignore our natural hunger to retreat, it will be created for us. We may experience painful or abrupt "wake up" calls. Physical health weakens, relationships deteriorate, jobs end, businesses that were wildly successful, suddenly falter. These times of forced retreat are precious turning points that are potent with possibility, if we listen carefully. Deeper self knowledge, wisdom and clear vision arise as we experience our emotions, silence our mind and clear away what is no longer serving.

Integrating coaching and private retreat throughout your career creates a powerful structure that supports this vital process of "retreat to advance" in its most effective form. Together we navigate the "retreat to advance" landscape insuring your progress. Coaching illumines your blind spots and keeps you from getting lost or entangled, alone in your own inner process.

Guiding Principles:

-Create Beautiful, Comfortable, Safe Environments
I create private, safe environments for self-discovery for the sake of your professional development. We work in beautiful surroundings - places that offer inspiring natural or architectural beauty. Coaching sessions and retreats are designed to pull you out of the intensity of your day to day and connect you with your truth.

-Beyond Balance
There is value in slowing down - coming to deep stillness - in order to gain new perspectives. Once you learn to access stillness, we incorporate it into your work and life every day.

-Move Things Along
I am professional - all about business - enhanced by a creative, spiritual spark.
I manage the process to keep you on track.
I move things along - we get things done - and focus on results.

-Focus on the Goal
Structure and focus are important.
We allow things to unfold in their natural order - to see the full range of options as we move forward.
I combine business expertise with spiritual principles.

-Walk It with You
When I'm with you, I'm with you and we put the focus where it's needed.
I customize our work based on intuition and empathy.
