You have a personal goal, a big dream, or an undeniable inkling that you could do more.
Or you are ready to make a creative and lasting impact in your organization.
Or it's time to stop living on survival mode and start living your purpose and passions.
You found a book or website on the subject. You discovered some wisdom, but parts of it didn't quite fit your situation.
You started to change, but it was hard to stay committed.
You talked to a friend. They want to be supportive, but they don't know what to say. Or they do know what to say, but going into that much depth might hurt the friendship.
It's timefor Urban Nomad Life Coaching.
Maybe you want to reach one specific goal. Maybe you want to increase your overall wellness.
Either way, we'll touch on as many areas of your life that you feel are relevant to the conversation. After all, everything in your life works together.
Or doesn't work together.
Which is why you need a life coach.
As the Urban Nomad Life Coach, I have experience in a wide vareity of areas with a wide variety of people, but I mostly work with smart, creative, spiritually-minded people. We'll talk about who you are at the core, the patterns and habits you have set up in your life, what you can do to make positive personal changes, how to have an impact on the people around you, and how to stay motivated through the process.
Yes, really. We'll talk about all of that, and maybe a few other things.
I love huge, dramatic leaps forward (I'm an actor, after all), but I also know that true change happens through steady progress built on daily habits. You may be surprised at how much leverage you get from one new insight or habit.
How could I possibly know how to help you? I actually have many traditional qualifications: two separate master's degrees in Lutheran theology and organizational psychology, specific training and certification as a life coach, and many hours of coaching experience.

Within the first 10 minutes of talking with Dawn I felt better, and within 20 minutes I had figured out what I need to do next. Her combination of skills in so many areas made a huge difference for me. Now I'm thrilled with my new contract for a dream job!"- Amanda, creative professional
