Personal Development
Are you tired of feeling empty all the time and hustling for your worth?
Do you long to live a more authentic, purpose driven life?
Are you ready to let go of what the world says you are, so you can embrace who You Are?
Let's Talk !
Self Awareness
Self-Awareness is a key factor in any kind of growth. We have to acknowledge where we are before we can move forward. In personal development coaching, we start with raising your awareness of “self.” How do you see yourself? How do you communicate with yourself? In what ways do you support your growth? In what ways do you sabotage your personal growth? This is a very personal, individual process. It is also very empowering. Once we see something, we can’t “unsee” it and often times it will become a catalyst for change.
The one thing that stands in the way of Everyone’s personal growth is their “Ego,” or sense of self-importance.
Ego is one of the biggest sources of turmoil and disconnect inside each of us. Why? Because its never happy! It is perpetually in a state of unrest. It’s constantly comparing, competing, jockeying for higher position, and shouting “look at me!” It pushes us to strive for things that are unrealistic because we becomes convinced that we “need” whatever it is to be happy. The reality is that our ego will never be satisfied and neither will we as long as we allow it to run the show. It divides us against ourselves and deprives us of what we innately crave above all else: harmony and wholeness.
The good news is, we have the ultimate authority over ourselves. We can choose to release our ego-driven patterns and start living in the present. We can choose to bring our hearts and our minds into harmony and we can use our self-awareness to do it!
“My life coach toolbox of strategies is bursting with skills to share, however, what I’ve come to find is the single most powerful thing I can do is to help someone cultivate a soul-deep connection with themselves.”
Self-Discovery
We’ve been internalizing mixed messages our whole lives. Who we are and who we aren’t. Who we should be and who we could never be. We are never taught to listen to our own inner voice for guidance, much less to value it over the voice of others. As a result, we grow up without ever knowing ourselves and lose touch with what makes us unique along the way.
This causes a disconnect deep within our beings. It may tell us we are unworthy or unappreciated or perhaps unloved. In some way, it tells us we are “unseen,” and this sends us in search of the validation we so desperately crave. We see what other people do to earn recognition and attempt to emulate them, but we only end up feeling empty because whatever we do doesn’t resonate with who we are. We aren’t living our truth.
Are you ready to break the cycle? To stop squeezing yourself into a mold that doesn’t fit. To start discovering what makes you unique. To start distinguishing between the voice of doubt and the voice of truth, your truth. It is time to discover who YOU are.
What are you designed to do? What are you made to give? How can you contribute to the world in ways that are life-giving rather than life-draining? What drives meaning from the inside out?
If you want to know the answers to these questions, you are being called to take a journey of self-discovery!
My goal is to empower you to cultivate inner strength that grows with your ability to discern between the voice of truth and the voice of judgement. This practice will ground you in certainly and in the knowledge that you are well able to persevere.
Spiritual Growth
If you are reading this, chances are you’ve already found that nothing on the outside can ever satisfy our deepest longings. The ego (our sense of self importance) is forever trying to convince us that the world can fill the emptiness within. That “more” is the answer. I have found the opposite to be true. When we live to satisfy our egos, we are constantly in a state of unrest. Scrambling for significance and external validation, for a feeling of fulfillment that never comes. Emptiness is the absence of connection to Spirit, which does have the power to fill and sustain us.
Everyone is born with a spirit inside of them. It is what connects us, beyond the walls of religion, to our Creator and to each other. I use the term Creator in hopes that everyone can identify with the unconditional love therein. Please know that I respect your religious preferences and will not challenge your belief system. On the contrary, what I am offering you is a a safe place to explore how the development of a spiritual practice can deepen your faith.
Spiritual coaching is about helping you come to know the spirit that dwells inside you and cultivating a honoring relationship with that eternal entity that embodies the essence of who you are. It is a living portal allows us to engage with our Creator and receive unconditional love. How we connect to it is entirely personal. Some use art, nature, music, meditation, books, praise and worship… That’s the way it should be! I may walk along side you to support you, but this truly a personal quest.
How do we get in touch with our spirit? What can fostering a deeper connection to it do for us? These are the types of questions I’d like to explore with you. Whether you are deeply religious person or exploring a faith-based belief system for the first time, establishing a living connection with your inner-being will help to bring your life into alignment and allow you to experience it more fully.
"I was introduced to Anne’s practice by a dear mutual friend. I was in a space in my life where I needed encouragement and direction after a hard divorce and loss of a relationship I was in. Anne immediately gave me a wonderful sense of peace and support as I began to unravel the thoughts and emotions. Anne’s professional guidance was just the piece I needed personally to make positive consistent changes in my life that have now been paramount to my emotional happiness and overall personal wellness!"
