What i help with
Professional Mentoring
Whether you're managing difficult personalities, strengthening communication, or expanding your influence, you'll be guided on how to navigate workplace challenges with clarity, confidence, and a sense of your own authority. Through reflective practices and practical tools, you cultivate the skills and insight needed for professional growth while honoring a balanced, healthy approach to work and life.
Career Strategizing
You gain clarity and confidence in your career by identifying long-term goals, exploring opportunities that resonate with your strengths, and making intentional decisions that honor who you are. Your values, gifts, and professional context come together to create a clear, adaptable roadmap that supports work that is meaningful, fulfilling, and aligned with your authentic self.
Job Transitioning
You step into career transitions or life shifts with clarity and confidence, reconnecting with your inner authority and honoring the full scope of your experiences. Through reflective practices, gentle guidance, and supportive encouragement, you uncover work that aligns with your values and gifts, allowing you to move forward with purpose, authenticity, and the assurance that your next steps truly fit who you are.
Coaching Services
You reconnect with your inner authority, clarify your direction, and pursue goals that honor who you truly are. Through gentle yet strategic reflection, practical tools, and compassionate support, you build trust in your own wisdom, express yourself authentically, and reclaim your inner power, moving forward with confidence and self-trust.
Leadership Development
Your nonprofit team strengthens leadership at every level, from emerging managers to executive directors and boards. Through coaching, skill-building, and practices rooted in your organization’s mission and values, you lead with clarity, confidence, and a sense of shared purpose, empowering your team to grow and make an even greater impact.
Strategic Vision for Nonprofits
Your nonprofit reconnects with the deeper purpose at the heart of its work, refines its strategic direction, and translates vision into clear, intentional action. As your organization grows from informal, volunteer-driven efforts into a more established and professional operation, you strengthen internal systems, develop leadership capacity, and align daily practices with your mission and values, turning passion into focused, lasting impact.
The journey that guides yours
I’ve spent 30+ years in nonprofit leadership, and higher education. Through various roles, I've mentored and guided organizations and individuals toward meaningful growth and impact. From directing programs at the American Academy of Religion and the North Carolina Museum of Art to teaching for over two decades in academia, my work has always focused on equity, empowerment, and lifelong learning.
Along the way, I discovered a deep calling: to mentor those navigating life's transitions. My aim is to partner with you during those moments when life shifts, and you are designing your next era. As a partner, I'll help you reflect on how to reconnect with your inner authority, clarify your vision, and move forward with intentional authenticity. For nonprofit leaders, this same clarity and self-trust extends to your organization. I help you return to your organization's core purpose, align its values with action, strengthen internal capacity, and build systems that keep strategy and daily operations moving in harmony. My approach integrates science and brain-based methods with insights drawn from philosophy and spirituality.
I hold an MA and PhD in religion and culture from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and an MA in ancient history and religion from North Carolina State University. Currently, I'm training as an associate coach with the NeuroLeadership Institute. More importantly, I bring decades of leadership experience, teaching, mentoring, curiosity, and a commitment to holding space for people as they grow into the purposeful work and life they are meant to have.
If you’re ready to design a life and career aligned with your values or discover your next path, let’s connect and chart your horizons together.
