Coaching that combines modern mental health with ancient wisdom and sound leadership development strategy. It's coaching for the whole person.
We coach leaders who feel burned out and stagnant. There is an imbalance in their lives, and they don't see a way to change it. They want to rebalance their life and work without losing the influence they’ve worked so hard to get.
You’re in the right place to do inner work that will spark a huge impact in your leadership and life while honoring the constraints and commitments you already have.
I am an Educational Psychologist (Ed.D.), Licensed Professional Counselor with a Mental Health Service Provider designation (TN #1835), angel investor, TEDx speaker, and workshop facilitator.
In 2010, I left my clinical practice and went to work as an internal service provider for a venture capital firm. I served as the Director of Happiness and resident shrink for four years before starting my own hardware technology company. In 2018, after recovering from deep burnout, I felt a strong call to integrate my experience and passions in psychology, business, and leadership development to eradicate burnout and help others recover from it. This led to the creation of Big Self School.
I am a student of the Chestnut-Paes Enneagram Academy and am committed to integrating the Enneagram into my coaching. The Enneagram is a personality system that reveals our drives, motivations, mental traps, blindspots, and growth paths for psychological growth as a human and as a leader.
