Life Abounds Wellness, L.L.C.
Helping You Create a Life That Supports Your Mind, Body & Spirit
About
I believe wellness isn’t about perfection. It’s about creating greater balance, making meaningful progress, and learning what helps you thrive in your own life. That’s the philosophy I bring to every coaching relationship, and it’s one I strive to live every day myself.
A Whole-Person Approach to Wellness
As an integrative wellness and holistic life coach, I believe the different parts of our lives are deeply connected. Our thoughts affect our emotions. Our emotional well-being can influence our physical health and daily habits. Our sense of meaning, purpose, and connection can shape how we experience all of it.
That’s why my approach considers the whole person through four interconnected dimensions of wellness: mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual.
When one area feels out of balance, the effects often show up elsewhere. Rather than looking at a single challenge in isolation, I help clients step back and explore the bigger picture. Together, we can identify what may need attention, recognize patterns that are no longer serving you, and find realistic ways to create greater balance and well-being.
This isn’t about trying to create a perfectly balanced life. Life changes, circumstances change, and so do we. It’s about becoming more aware of what you need and developing the tools, habits, and perspective to respond to those changes in ways that support the life you want to live.
My Approach to Coaching
I combine holistic wellness principles with practical, sustainable strategies that fit real life. I don’t believe in quick fixes or one-size-fits-all solutions, because what works beautifully for one person may not work at all for another.
Instead, I start by listening.
I want to understand where you are, what matters to you, what’s working, what isn’t, and what you would like to be different. From there, we work together to identify meaningful changes and practical next steps that fit your circumstances, priorities, values, and vision for your life.
My role isn’t to tell you how you should live. It’s to help you gain clarity, recognize possibilities, work through obstacles, and create changes that feel authentic and sustainable for you.
My Background
Before becoming a coach, I spent years in the higher education and corporate worlds educating others, helping people solve complex problems, and developing systems designed to make things work better. Those experiences taught me skills that remain central to my coaching today: listen before assuming, look beyond the obvious problem, understand how the pieces fit together, and meet people where they are.
My coach training began with completing the Holistic Life Coach program through the Spencer Institute. I am continuing my professional development through the Integrative Wellness and Life Coach program at the Integrative Wellness Academy (IWA), with additional Holistic Life Coach certification training through the Holistic Life Coach Training Institute beginning in January 2027.
I believe effective coaches should continue learning, growing, and refining how they support the people they serve.
But my perspective on wellness doesn’t come from training alone.
I’m not here because I have everything figured out. I know firsthand that creating a balanced, intentional life is an ongoing process. There are seasons when things work beautifully and seasons when life requires us to reconsider our priorities, routines, expectations, and even what wellness means to us.
I continue to learn, adapt, and challenge myself right alongside my clients.
A Supportive Place to Create Change
Above all, I want coaching to be a place where you can show up as you are.
You don’t need to have the answers. You don’t need to have a perfectly defined goal. And you certainly don’t need to have your life together before asking for support.
Whether you’re navigating a transition, feeling stuck or overwhelmed, trying to develop healthier habits, seeking greater balance, reconnecting with what matters to you, or simply realizing that something in your life needs to change, we can start where you are.
My goal is to provide a supportive, judgment-free environment where you can explore your mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being and feel empowered to make meaningful changes that reflect who you are and how you want to live.
Because ultimately, wellness isn’t about becoming someone else.
It’s about creating a life that feels more abundant, authentic, balanced, and aligned with what matters most to you.
I would be honored to walk alongside you on that journey.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is holistic life coaching?
Holistic life coaching looks at you as a whole person rather than focusing on one goal or challenge in isolation.
Your habits, relationships, work, environment, values, priorities, physical well-being, emotions, and sense of purpose can all influence one another. A challenge in one area of life may be connected to something happening somewhere else.
Holistic coaching gives us the opportunity to step back, look at the bigger picture, and explore changes that support not just a particular goal, but your overall quality of life and well-being.
What is integrative wellness coaching?
Integrative wellness coaching takes a whole-person approach to well-being through four interconnected dimensions: mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual wellness.
Rather than treating these as separate parts of your life, we explore how they may be influencing one another. For example, stress may affect your sleep, poor sleep may affect your emotions and ability to focus, and all of those things may influence how connected or purposeful you feel.
The goal isn't to achieve perfect balance in every area. It's to become more aware of what you need, recognize areas that may need attention, and make meaningful changes that support your overall well-being.
What does “spiritual wellness” mean?
Spiritual wellness doesn't necessarily mean religion.
It can include your sense of meaning, purpose, values, connection, and what gives your life a deeper sense of significance. For some people, spirituality includes religious faith or spiritual practices. For others, it may come through nature, relationships, creativity, service, community, or living in alignment with deeply held values.
Your beliefs are your own and will always be respected. There is no particular spiritual or religious perspective required for coaching.
What can a life coach help me with?
Coaching can be helpful when you want to create positive change, gain clarity, or become more intentional about how you're living.
You might come to coaching because you're navigating a transition, feeling stuck or out of balance, trying to develop healthier habits, working toward a personal goal, facing a decision, reconsidering your priorities, struggling to follow through on changes, or simply wondering what you want the next chapter of your life to look like.
You don't need to be in crisis — or even know exactly what needs to change — to benefit from coaching.
What is the difference between coaching and therapy?
Coaching and therapy can both provide valuable support, but they serve different purposes.
Coaching focuses primarily on where you are now, where you would like to go, and the changes you can make moving forward. It may involve goals, habits, lifestyle, values, choices, personal growth, and overall well-being.
Coaching is not therapy, counseling, or healthcare and does not diagnose or treat mental or physical health conditions. When someone's needs fall outside the scope of coaching, support from an appropriate licensed healthcare or mental health professional may be a better fit.
Will you tell me what I need to do?
Not exactly — and this is one of the ways coaching may be different from what you expect.
Unlike working with a professional who may assess your situation and prescribe a specific plan for you to follow, coaching is a collaborative process. I don't begin with the assumption that I know what your life should look like or that there is one “right” solution for you.
Instead, I'll ask questions, help you look at your situation from different perspectives, identify patterns or obstacles, and help you clarify what you really want. I may also share tools, resources, ideas, or practical strategies when they could be helpful.
From there, we work together to determine what changes make sense for you — your circumstances, priorities, values, strengths, and goals.
You remain in the driver's seat. My role is to help you gain clarity, recognize possibilities, create a realistic path forward, and support you as you put those changes into practice.
Will we work on all four areas of wellness?
Yes. My integrative wellness approach considers mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual wellness because these four dimensions are interconnected and together contribute to your overall well-being.
While we may spend more time on a particular area depending on what is happening in your life, we won't intentionally isolate one dimension while ignoring the others. Part of the value of a whole-person approach is recognizing how one area may be influencing another.
For example, what begins as a desire to improve a physical habit may lead us to explore stress, emotional patterns, mindset, priorities, values, or your sense of purpose. Likewise, a challenge that initially seems emotional may also be affected by physical routines, thought patterns, or a lack of connection and meaning.
This doesn't mean every session will devote equal time to all four dimensions. Instead, we'll regularly consider your well-being as a whole, paying closer attention to the areas that need it while continuing to recognize how all four work together.
The goal is not perfect balance. It's greater awareness, alignment, and well-being across your life as a whole.
What happens if I need support that is outside the scope of coaching?
Part of responsible coaching is recognizing when another type of professional may be better equipped to support a particular need.
If something comes up that requires specialized expertise beyond the scope of coaching, I may encourage you to seek support from an appropriately qualified professional, such as a physician or other healthcare provider, registered dietitian, licensed mental health professional, personal trainer, financial professional, or another specialist.
That doesn't necessarily mean coaching has to stop. Coaching can often complement the work you're doing with other professionals by helping you explore your goals, choices, habits, priorities, and how those changes fit into your life as a whole.
Do I need to have a specific goal before starting coaching?
No. Some people begin coaching with a very clear goal. Others simply know that something feels off, they're feeling stuck, or they want something in their life to be different.
You don't need to figure that out before we meet. Identifying what matters to you, what may be out of balance, and where you would like to begin can be part of the coaching process itself.
Is coaching confidential?
Yes. What you share during coaching is treated as confidential, subject to the exceptions outlined in your Coaching Agreement.
It's important to understand that a coaching relationship does not have the same legally protected privilege that may apply to certain licensed professional relationships. Your Coaching Agreement explains the confidentiality policy and its exceptions in greater detail.
