This is my story

How fulfilled are you feeling right now? Seriously, be honest with yourself. Do you find yourself wanting to make a professional change, but don’t know what it is you want to do next? Or, are you crystal clear on what you want to do next, but either don’t know how to make it happen or are terrified of giving it a try? Or, are you currently checked out in front of your television, wondering where it all went wrong, trying to remember if you still have some ice cream left in the freezer (no judgment, I’ve been there!)?

I’ve been in your shoes. I’ve wanted more. I wanted something that was more aligned with my values, strengths, and passions. I’ve longed for the type of work that fed my soul, in addition to paying the bills. I’ve fought my way clear of the inner narratives that told me I couldn’t, I shouldn’t, or that I wasn’t even capable of stepping into what I truly wanted. Let me tell you, being on the other side of that fight is an AMAZING place to be!

Sound like something you’d be interested in? Let’s talk!

I serve leaders at all levels who are looking to make any sort of change for themselves!

Leaders who…
  • are new or newer managers and are developing their leadership style and professional brand
  • are looking to develop essential skills like giving quality, actionable feedback, delegating effectively, shifting culture, and managing stress and burnout
  • are looking to do some deep work on their imposter syndrome, limiting beliefs, and professional insecurities
Professionals who…
  • are looking to make a career or role change
  • want to get to the bottom of what they truly want out of their professional lives
  • need help with their resume, interview skills, and preparing for professional development conversations
People who…
  • want to love their professional lives!
  • need help with procrastination and avoidance when working toward goals
  • need help with setting boundaries

My Coaching Approach

I take the time to truly connect with and get to know each and every client on a deep level. I tend to start coaching engagements with some values work, so that both myself and the client can have a base knowledge of what’s truly important to them (this helps me to ground/challenge them when necessary when they’re navigating things like they’re making decisions, making changes, etc.). Clients can expect a lot of empathy and compassion, as well as direct (yet polite) challenges. They can expect to laugh a lot, even while we’re doing the hard work. I like to partner fully with my clients to co-create the life that they truly want. My coaching is comprehensive, meaning nothing is off-limits if they want to work on it. I encourage them to bring their whole selves to sessions.

What my clients say

“Tricia is just what I was looking for in a coach. She is upbeat, welcoming and has a great sense of humor all backed by deep professional expertise. She gently and firmly helps me sort through superficial distractions so we can get to the heart of the matter. Then, she supports me as I put together a plan that creates real momentum toward my goals. I always come away from our session with a renewed sense of energy and clarity about what I want to do next. Having Tricia as my coach has been like having a partner and a champion. I recommend her very highly!” – Elizabeth E., SVP, Market Research (IRi/Chief)

“Tricia is an incredible coach who has supported and guided me in both my personal and professional endeavors. She leads with empathy and understanding, which creates an open space for growth. I walk away from every session feeling seen and heard. This alone has made a major impact on my life. One of the most wonderful tools Tricia has taught me is reframing. She brings warmth and compassion into every conversation. But still has the ability to kindly challenge me to reframe the way I see or interpret a situation. This practice has helped me handle difficult situations and tough decisions as well as to be more compassionate with myself. I am so grateful for the eye opening conversations and revelations we’ve had over the last two years. Tricia has been a true light in my life and I’m very thankful for the many gifts her coaching has brought me.” – Hailey T., Marketing & PR Director (Redbull)

“Working with Tricia is one of the best decisions I have ever made! Since our first coaching session in June 2021, my personal and professional confidence has skyrocketed. I went from feeling ‘stuck’ to gaining a better understanding of my values, what I want from my work and where I have been holding myself back. As a result I can truly say that I feel a new sense of freedom and agency in regard to my own life. In just 9 months with Tricia, I have made a mid-career switch, transitioned into a new sector, negotiated a better salary and title for myself and am now sketching out a plan to go freelance. I can safely say that I would not have initiated these shifts without Tricia’s expertise and support which is astute, perceptive and radically empathetic. She picks up on what is said but also unsaid, and has a way of disentangling even my most jumbled thoughts and feelings! She is also incredibly fun and easy to talk to. I cannot thank Tricia enough- not just for her clarity and insight, but for equipping me with the tools and confidence I need to tap into my own.” – Safia M., UK Public Policy Writer (The City of London)

“I greatly appreciated working with Tricia, she was a wonderful coach and I learned a lot out of my sessions with her.” – Heidi H.
