  • What is your "why"? Why do you do what you do?
    At one of my lowest points in life, I found myself trying to manage a full time corporate job, $1MM Commercial Cleaning Business with 40 employees and no management staff, two ailing parents and my family. I was completely burned out and felt like a failure! I knew it was a lot for anyone to manage but I had never been in a situation where I was completely overwhelmed...I was a high achiever! The death of my father sent me over an edge. With the help of formal and informal coaches, I was able to build a plan and gradually remove things from my plate and clear my mind. I realized that everyone needs help or a coach sometimes. I want to be that resource for others so no one ever feels the frustration, sadness and shame that I felt on my worst day. Helping someone to transform their business can transform their life!
  • Qualifying Questions: What are three questions we can ask clients to help pave the way for a referral? List them here.
    Do you know any business owners or business leaders that say that they are having trouble finding the time to figure out how to grow or never have the time to unplug and think?
    Do you know a small business owner who is afraid to take a vacation because they are afraid the business will fall apart?
    Do you know a business owner that has a growth plan but is struggling to determine the right steps to acquiring the people or money to execute it?
  • Unique Selling Proposition
    I believe that helping individuals transform businesses can transform lives. I have a passion for growing businesses and helping people, so I decided to take my 20+ years of corporate experience as well as experience owning and operating four businesses of my own to establish a coaching practice fulfilling my personal mission. I have seen the good, the bad and the ugly of the corporate world and entrepreneurship, so now I help business leaders manage through the challenges associated with things like time, team, money, and future planning to help eliminate the uncertainty, frustration, and stress of business ownership that I once felt.

    We offer a variety of solutions such as 1 to 1 coaching, group coaching, workshops and assessments to help clients gain insight and chart a path forward. Our goal to is make business coaching resources available to those who desire help and would like to transform their businesses and lives.
