If you're tired of just getting through the week, I'll help you change your approach so you can do less, feel calm, and start enjoying your life again.
Life coaching for overwhelmed working women
You worked hard to build this life. You shouldn’t have to feel exhausted living it.
Life coaching for overwhelmed working women
Does this sound like you?
You're wide awake at 2 am, replaying what you said to your boss in the budget meeting and mentally rearranging tomorrow's schedule so you can make it to pickup.
You struggle to say no, so the school fundraiser, the new hire's onboarding, and your coworker's "quick favor" all land on your plate, and you're left to figure out how to get it all done, quietly resenting every bit of it.
You're the one everyone counts on, so when the deal falls apart, the babysitter cancels, or the girls want to plan a trip, your phone rings first.
Your body’s in bed at 2 am, but your brain is still at work, replaying the budget meeting and rearranging tomorrow so you can make pickup.
Does this sound like you?
When carrying it all becomes too much
You feel guilty when you rest, so even your vacation includes checking Slack by the pool.
You feel guilty when you rest, so even your vacation includes checking Slack by the pool.
You need a new approach so you can finally do less. That's exactly what I help women do.
Your life looks great on paper, and people tell you all the time they don't know how you do it. Some days, you don't either, and you can't put your finger on why it doesn't feel better.
You drop everything for everyone else's emergencies, while your own doctor's appointment gets rescheduled for the third time.

You drop everything for everyone else's emergencies, while your own doctor's appointment gets rescheduled for the third time.
You don’t need to do more. You need a different way to carry it.
You're the one everyone counts on, so when the deal falls apart, the babysitter cancels, or the girls want to plan a trip, your phone rings first.
You’re not imagining it, and you’re not doing it wrong. This is what it looks like to carry more than one person should.
If this is your everyday, you're not alone
You don't need to do more…
You don't need to do more…
You need a new approach so you can finally do less. That's exactly what I help women do.

HERE’S WHAT CHANGES
PAUSE
01
Instead of pushing harder, you'll learn to pause and look at what's really going on underneath the overwhelm. Your schedule isn’t the whole story. Most of the stress comes from the way you’re thinking about it. We'll dig into the thoughts, beliefs, and expectations that keep you pushing harder.
And then you practice. Calm isn't a one-time fix. It's a skill, and we'll build it with small shifts you repeat until they become almost automatic. Before long, doing less and feeling in control is just how you live, even in your busiest seasons.

FOCUS
Then you'll dial in your focus. Together, we'll sort out what's in your control and what isn't, and then decide what you can drop, delegate, or simplify. Instead of adding more to your plate, you'll learn to say no and do less on purpose, without guilt.
PRACTICE
01
You don't need a better planner or more willpower. Overwhelm starts with how you think, so that's where we start. Then we make real room in your life, so you can be ambitious and calm at the same time.
Calm becomes your default, and you trust yourself and your new tools to handle whatever life brings

“The absolute biggest thing that helps me feel less overwhelmed was learning to speak kindly to myself.”
What my clients are saying…
“I am a recovering people pleaser... I’ve learned how to set boundaries... I know how to ask for help now... Overall, I am just a hundred percent happier.”
What my clients are saying…
“My overwhelm was so off the charts that I would wake up every day with butterflies in my stomach just thinking about going to work. Since our coaching, my stress and anxiety are at all-time lows, and I’ve found the job of my dreams.”

For years, I lived life on overdrive too.
I was the classic overachiever — a demanding corporate career, two young kids, a picture-perfect home, and a to-do list that never actually ended. I was running on empty and calling it normal.
One ordinary night, folding laundry and half-listening to a podcast, something clicked. Within 24 hours, I’d signed up to train as a coach under Martha Beck — a Harvard-trained psychologist and longtime O Magazine columnist. I was also, at the time, getting divorced and rebuilding my whole life from the ground up. Coaching was the thing that actually worked.
Since 2017, I’ve built a business around calm, intention, and telling the truth. I’ve coached hundreds of women out of overwhelm and into a life that’s actually theirs — and I host Overwhelmed Working Woman, a podcast that reaches the top 1.5% globally, sharing what I’ve learned from 20+ years in corporate America and everything since.

YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
YOUR QUESTIONS. ANSWERED
It’s completely okay to have questions before taking the next step. Here are a few things clients often want to know.
-
In this 45-minute Zoom call, I'll ask a few questions to get to know you — what's going on in your life, why you're considering coaching, and what you'd love to change. I'll also explain how my coaching works and what you can expect, so we can both decide if we're a good fit. It's not a high-pressure sales pitch.
-
Nope, please don't wait. This is exactly the right time to reach out. You don't need to have it all together. In fact, most of my clients start coaching because they're overwhelmed and want support to get unstuck. Just knowing what you don’t want anymore is a great place to start.
-
We'll meet once a week for 6 months on Zoom (24 sessions total).
Why 6 months? Because real change happens in layers. First you see what's actually causing your overwhelm. Then you practice doing less until it feels natural. By the end, the new way of thinking is automatic, so the calm lasts long after we're done. And you'll start feeling the difference within the first few weeks.
-
The investment for the 6-month coaching program is $7,000. Payment plans are available: 3 monthly payments of $2,600 or 6 monthly payments of $1,400.
I know investing in yourself can feel uncomfortable, especially if you're used to putting everyone else first. You're not alone in that feeling. But overwhelm is already costing you: your sleep, your patience, your time with the people you love. This is an investment in getting all of that back, with tools you'll use for the rest of your life.
As my client Abbey put it, coaching was "worth every single penny and minute."
-
Most clients start feeling better after just a few sessions. Simply having someone in your corner makes a difference, and so does finally seeing what's actually been causing your overwhelm. That moment alone brings real relief.
From there, the transformation builds as we shift your thinking and habits, until calm becomes your default.
-
So many!
More peace and less chaos — imagine waking up and actually looking forward to your day because you've built a morning routine that feels calm and doable.
Saying "no" without guilt — picture telling your boss you can't take on another project, and not spinning out about it afterward.
Clear priorities and better time management — you're logging off work by 5 pm, eating dinner with your family, and not thinking about your inbox.
Confidence to make bold life decisions — maybe it's finally leaving the job that's been draining you or starting something that lights you up.
Freedom from people-pleasing — you stop saying yes to every PTA request and start saying yes to what actually matters to you.

Your circumstances don't have to change for your life to feel different. Here's what that looks like:
You say no without guilt, whether it's another committee at work or the PTA bake sale, and you don't spend the next three days spiraling about it.
You become more productive without working longer, with a plan for your week that actually holds up when life happens.
You stop being the default for everything, and you ask for help without feeling like you've failed.
You're logging off by 5, eating dinner with your family, and not thinking about your inbox.
You learn to relax, so you can enjoy a slow Saturday morning at home without a to-do list running in your head, and actually come back from vacation recharged instead of behind.
Your life finally feels as good as it looks, and you feel like yourself again.
