Hi, I’m Nancy!

Did I mention that in addition to a coach, I’m also a nature girl and a lover of 80’s music (I freely admit it too!)

I’m a Mom of two amazing teens, an entrepreneur, a half marathon runner, a lover of life, and a work in progress (aren’t we all?)

I teach women to shut off the auto pilot and step into their authentic selves so they can intentionally create a life that is fulfilling and joyful every day.

The past ten years have not been easy. In 2013 I lost my Mom to cancer. In 2014 my husband and I separated. In 2016 I went through a divorce. In 2018 I lost a dear friend to violence, and six months later I had a complete emotional breakdown. During these challenging times, I learned many strategies and life hacks, and I had realizations that blew my mind. I brought myself back from depression through journaling. I became a half marathon runner. I unearthed trauma that had me living in survival mode, and I began addressing it.

No matter what life threw at me, I kept going. Believe me, there were many days when I didn’t want to. But I saw a bigger picture and knew there was more inside of me. I knew there was a new life awaiting once I got out of the tunnel I was in. So I began being intentional with my time, with my habits and with my life. I became an observer of myself, and I took action based on how I interacted with and responded to the world. I built myself back from nothing, I decided who I want to be, and I am now the best version of me that I’ve been so far. (I’ll always be a work in progress and will continue learning and growing).

I now share what I’ve learned, and I create spaces for others to step into their own power and create their future on the daily. We work together to celebrate all that you are and to bring out all that you have yet to discover about your amazing self.

Life is challenging, but we don’t have to be a victim to it, nor do we have to go through the motions and wait for someday to be happy. Living with intention allows us to be in control of life and to find joy in each day, even on our most challenging days.

I am obsessed with self growth and with learning about how our human brain works. I’ve worked hard to create strategies that help me thrive despite life’s challenges and my own (real or imagined) limitations. These strategies are part of what has allowed me to create a life I now love.

I have become adaptable where once I was rigid in my ways. I’ve learned to question myself and my actions before questioning anyone else. Looking in the mirror was hard, but I gathered up the courage to do it and my life has completely changed.

This, along with cultivating self love and allowing myself grace, is what has allowed me to keep a positive attitude, a strong sense of hope, and an ability to remain bright and cheerful despite the challenges that life throws my way.

We are all in control of our lives, much more than many of us realize. Bringing a positive attitude and a willingness to improve oneself to each day is a choice. Tapping into our courage to keep going when life is hard is a muscle we can strengthen. Learning to push through fears to create a life we love is a characteristic we can cultivate.

Having someone on your team to help you do all these things - now that is the ultimate recipe for success!

That’s why I became a coach. Helping you to become the best version of you is my passion. I want to support you in your quest to push through what is holding you back.

Why do I call myself “Mama of Reinvention”?

I have reinvented myself many times over the course of my life. And you can too. Reinvention doesn’t have to mean changing everything about you. On the contrary, it generally means letting more of the real you out. It means making conscious choices in our day to day life, so that we can create a life that feeds our soul and that allow us to bring the best version of ourselves to each and every day.

What we all know is that if we keep doing the same things, we will keep getting the same results. So if your life isn’t how you want it, imagine the following for a moment:

  • Imagine showing up as your best self every day

  • Imagine living full of love, with joy and gratitude for each day in your heart

  • Imagine no longer getting upset and angry at how others treat you

  • Imagine knowing how to tame your anxiety and worry

  • Imagine feeling confident in yourself and no longer caring what others think about you

  • Imagine making decisions based on what you want, not based on what you think you should do

  • Imagine being able to experience emotions without having them ruin your entire day

  • Imagine feeling confident that you are not alone, that someone has your back, all day every day

We have everything within us to create an amazing life that we love.

Just like software and our iphones, we have to upgrade ourselves once in a while. We have to evaluate where we are, and then make intentional choices to improve the inner workings. Sometimes we have to delete some old files too.

Sometimes we are aware that we need to change but we have no idea how to begin. We often think that if we change our surroundings, or job or our relationship that the problems will be solved. I’m here to tell you that while those things may help, it goes much deeper than that. Instead of looking outward, the solution is looking inward.

We can change our lives by changing ourselves. Investing in yourself is money well spent. Once you learn the tools to look inward, you can face any challenge with confidence.

Self-care and self-growth is a gift - for yourself and for your loved ones, Having guidance to discover the whats, whys and hows of how you operate and how to grow is a game changer. I’m here to add to your mental toolbox so you are equipped to handle anything life throws your way with grace and calm. I’m here to guide you through life’s challenges and life’s experiences. I’m here to help you become the best version of you that you can be, and to help you build a life you love.

Sometimes life throws us curveballs or we feel powerless. Maybe you have experienced one of the following:

  • Losing someone you love

  • Ending a significant relationship or experiencing a divorce

  • Taking on caring for an aging parent or sick family member

  • Realizing that your life is not what you had hoped

  • It’s hit you that you’ve let your dreams sit on the back burner for too long

  • Somehow between marriage, family, children and work life, you have lost yourself

  • You feel overwhelmed with the day to day of life and don’t see a way to change it

No matter what life throws at us, we are faced with a choice:

  • We can try to ride out the storm and stay stuck in survival mode, hoping to hold on until things change

    OR

  • We can decide to take control of our lives, and learn how to focus our energy on making the most of this beautiful opportunity we have - to live and thrive, and create a life we love.

I believe that more happy people living fulfilling lives helps our entire world, and I want you to thrive!

Together we will dig deep, find strength within, and learn how to navigate through change and the day to day challenges of life. You will learn strategies to outsmart negative self-talk, and face the fears that are holding you back from being wildly successful.

Whether success to you means being CEO of your own company, incorporating a regular exercise routine into your busy life, surviving emotionally intact through a divorce, or learning how to deal with being a stay at home Mom to three young kids without going absolutely insane, we can work together to get you there.

Support, guidance, motivation and inspiration are all here waiting for you. Are you ready? Let’s work together to create the reinvention that you’re seeking.
