Social workers, lawyers, artists, doctors, nurses, designers, engineers, business owners, caregivers, executive directors, etc.:

You chose a career of service because you love people, but you are burnt out. Your cup never seems to be full or stay full for long, and you find yourself always fulfilling others’ needs, before your own.

You are over functioning and exhausted. You believe you have to work to the bone to earn your worth.

As much as you are afraid to change, you want more for yourself. You know that if you didn’t have to settle, you’d want it all: a meaningful career that lights you up, pays well, honors your boundaries, and empowers you to have everything else you desire in life.

My belief: If you are brave enough to love, you will know grief. It is our nature to experience this duality in a lifetime. As a grief coach, it is my job to provide a powerful space for a client to become undone and mourn meaningfully. Rarely do we have the opportunity to connect with this part of ourselves- that aches, yearns, leans all the way into despair without fear.

Despite what society has told you, this level of mourning is important. We must generously nurture our sorrow in order to relearn how to trust ourselves. We must soften the layers of fear in our heart, in order to connect with our truest values. From there, our values will lovingly guide us into a new world.

My work does not offer an end date for your grief. It is designed to strengthen your trust in yourself, in life, and live meaningfully. Grief is more than pain and sorrow, it is the birthplace to loving deeper and living more intentionally.

To grieve well is a sacred art.
