Why I am here

I know how it feels to feel stuck and overwhelmed. To be ready to grow, to be in transition, and feel worthy of more. To feel out of balance or alignment and feel disconnected. To need support, accountability, and a path forward.

I’m here to be in this with you, especially when things are busy, messy, challenging, and unclear. I work with individuals, teams, and organizations to initiate change through exploration, growth, and restoring well-being. Together we take stock of where you are, what you need, what’s in the way, and how you want to get there. Our work is to build the bridge between what’s ahead for you and what’s inside of you.

Let’s talk

That right there is Rachel Coady! ”
