Do you ever feel like you’re holding your breath, waiting to hear what others think of you?
You are the people pleaser – never rocking the boat and always trying to make everyone else happy, even if that means hiding who you really are?
As an accomplished opera singer with years of of training focused around breathing and voice, you might never have guess that I struggled with unencumbered breathing and freely expressing myself. I kept quiet and struggled to be seen – in many ways it was ironic. Years later, after unfortunately losing my voice from surgery, I realized the voice that I was really missing was the one giving me the ability to speak up for myself.
Finding a connection to myself – my true authentic voice.
While grieving the loss of my voice I realized that I was more committed to silence that kept others comfortable than making the loudest physical noise possible without electronic help.
Now I’m using my voice in a different way to connect with others. And the best part is I can truly be all of who I really am!
I used to be people pleaser who constantly worried about what others thought of me. I was afraid to be my real self. Uncomfortable in my own skin, I was always trying to be what I thought others wanted me to be.
I understand what it’s like to be frozen in fear to the point of not wanting to breathe or even exist.
Through coaching I completely turned my life around. I lost 60 pounds in 6 months, healed myself of Crohn’s Disease, shifted my relationships, left my job and launched a new career. Whatever challenges you face, I know that when we work together, I’ll help you discover that more is possible than you can even see now.
Do you feel disconnected from yourself and others? Do you want to be heard?
I help people who want to be heard. I’m compassionate, gentle, honest and sensitive. I love the arts, especially music.
