FAQs

  • Coaching is a forward-focused partnership designed to help you unlock your potential and move toward the life you want. It’s a creative, collaborative process grounded in curiosity, insight, and action — and rooted in the belief that meaningful growth is possible.

    Rather than focusing on what’s wrong, coaching helps you explore what’s possible. It supports you in clarifying your goals, deepening self-awareness, and taking aligned steps toward the future you want to create — personally, professionally, and relationally.

  • As humans, and as a culture, we tend to focus on problems and dwell in the past. In coaching, we may acknowledge your history, but our focus is forward. We orient toward possibility, potential, and growth.

    This process is practical and grounded — yet it invites you to stretch, to dream, and to grow. Coaching is applicable to almost any area of life. And when you begin to shift your attention toward what’s possible, you may be surprised by what becomes possible for you.

  • While both coaching and therapy involve reflection and growth, they serve different purposes. Therapy often focuses on healing — exploring past experiences, processing pain, and working with mental health diagnoses. It’s a vital, often transformative process for those navigating emotional wounds or clinical concerns.

    Coaching, by contrast, is present and future-focused. It’s designed for individuals who are already functioning well but want to grow, stretch, and move more intentionally toward their goals. Coaching helps you clarify what you want, expand what you believe is possible, and take aligned action.

    It’s not about fixing what's broken — it’s about evolving into who you’re becoming. Coaching is a catalyst for this process, bringing focus, attention, our clearest thinking, and our best selves to the process.

  • If you’ve made it this far, chances are you’re wanting more — more connection, more friendship, more of a sense of community in your life. Maybe there was a moment that made you stop and say, “Enough. I have to do something about this.” That kind of moment is powerful. It marks the beginning of a shift.

    If you're like many people — navigating fear, social anxiety, avoidance, resistance, or competing priorities — it can be hard to stay the course. That’s where coaching comes in.

    Connection coaching can help you:

    • Get clear on what you want and what’s getting in the way.

    • Shift unhelpful beliefs and patterns.

    • Build confidence through small, consistent steps.

    • Stay accountable and supported when it gets uncomfortable.

    • Integrate connection into your life in a sustainable, meaningful way.

    And here’s what makes the most significant difference: you don’t have to do this alone. Doing this work in relationship eases the path.

    Whether with a caring guide or in a supportive group, being in connection makes the process feel lighter, more doable, and less lonely. When you’re witnessed, encouraged, and walking alongside others, the work doesn’t just get easier — it becomes more possible and more meaningful.

    This isn’t about a quick fix. It’s about creating a life where friendship and community can take root and grow — with support along the way.

Group FAQs

  • This is for you if…

    • You want more connection — close friends, community — but feel like you’re starting over.

    • You’re introverted, shy, or just more comfortable alone.

    • Career or family took priority, and friendships faded.

    • You’ve outgrown your old circle and don’t know how to find a new one.

    • You’re unsure how to move acquaintances into real friendship.

    • Past hurts make you cautious about trying again.

    • You’re new in town and don’t know where to begin.

    • You’re surrounded by people but still feel lonely or unseen.

    • Bottom line: friendship just feels hard

  • No. Great groups are magic. You can expect:

    🌈 Shared insights and fresh ideas

    🌈 Support and encouragement to keep going when it’s hard

    🌈 Collective energy, momentum, and inspiration

    🌈 Space to reflect, recalibrate, and celebrate wins

    🌈 Real-time feedback and authentic connection

    🌈 The relief of realizing: “It’s not just me.”

  • Because real change takes sustained effort over time. This group is designed as a focused dive into your social life — a chance to do some honest excavation, realignment, and action-taking, all alongside others who value community and connection. Ten weeks gives enough time to build trust, experiment with new habits, and see real momentum. It’s a commitment, yes — but you’ll be surprised by how quickly it flies by.

  • You're in the right place. This coaching is perhaps especially for folks who feel like socializing doesn't come naturally, or who’ve spent years masking or second-guessing themselves in groups. You don’t need to be outgoing or “good at people” to be here.

    The space is gentle, supportive, and paced so you can engage in ways that feel manageable. You’ll be invited to participate in ways that stretch you, but you’ll never be pressured or forced. We’ll work with your strengths and sensitivities—not against them.

  • Our weekly group sessions are 75 minutes.
    You’ll also have reflection prompts or exercises between sessions, which usually take 20–45 minutes.

    That’s it — about 1.5–2.5 hours per week of focused time to invest in building the connections and confidence you want.

  • Life happens, and I totally understand things come up. That said, I ask that if you choose to join, you're willing to commit to showing up consistently. This group is intentionally small, and your presence matters — not just for your own growth, but for the safety, trust, and cohesion of the group as a whole.

    Each session builds on the last, and consistency is part of what helps the experience feel supportive and transformative. If you do need to miss a session, I ask that you let me know in advance. I’ll provide light reflections or prompts to help you stay connected between meetings — without pressure to “keep up.”

  • Let’s find out!

    More seriously, you might — but the real goal is to help you start showing up differently, so friendship becomes more possible. In ten weeks, you’ll build self-awareness,  practice new ways of connecting, and gain the confidence to take real steps toward the friendships you want.

    Some people do make new connections in the group itself. The real goal of the group, though, is for it to become the launching pad for building meaningful relationships in your day-to-day lives. Friendship takes time — but momentum can build quickly when you have the right support.

  • Yes! And I get it — groups can feel intimidating, and there are plenty of other reasons why individual coaching might make more sense for you right now.

    I do offer 1:1 coaching for the right fit. It’s a more private, personalized option if you’d prefer tailored support, flexible pacing, and space to go deeper.

  • No — this is a coaching program, not therapy. It’s future-focused and action-oriented, with space for reflection, skill-building, and personal growth. If you’re in therapy, this can be a positive complement to the work you’re already doing. If you’re not, that’s okay too — this program stands on its own.
