Quest is for people who want something more. They've got some goal they want. Most of them have a couple of goals - one they're sharing more publicly with the group and another that's more personal and private. People are making big shifts in their lives and happiness by making small shifts in their day-to-day worlds and tweaking their mindset and approach. It's making the big picture philosophy of life, happiness, motivation, meaning, purpose, and depth an easy, practical reality. The Quest Warriors are people who want to start a business, change jobs, fix or improve their relationships, make a change in their health or fitness, write a book, or simply to find that little change that's going to turn a good life into a great life. Most of the members are women who are mid-life, mid-career and have spent their lives giving to others and now want something more for themselves. Sometimes they know what that thing is that they want. Sometimes they're searching for it. Are you ready to stop holding yourself back? Let me know.

“I’d rather be dead than practice law.” That’s what my lawyer clients often feel. After working with lawyers since 2007, I can tell you that you don’t have to feel that way. When people contact me, they’re often at the end of their rope, wishing that there was anything that they could do to get out of practicing law or out of the stresses that have stolen the joy from their law practice. While most aren’t desperate to change careers, it is the thought that rolls around in their mind during the quiet moments. They want something to be different – and yet, they are terrified of hoping that anything could ever change. They’ve built their lives around setting aside hope for a better way. Cynicism is a survival tactic. I have a Ph.D. in psychology with a strong emphasis in career development. My approach to executive coaching and mentorship is based on years of professional training, ten years providing psychotherapy as a psychologist, 25 years of career coaching and counseling, and 18 years of business ownership and entrepreneurship. And I understand lawyers. I help my clients see the world in a different way, so they find a new or renewed sense of purpose and calm in their lives. Occasionally, they change careers, but most often, they reconnect with their enjoyment and satisfaction in practicing law. After working on changing their mindset and approach to their career, people enjoy getting up in the morning again. They are glad to be part of a profession where they can make a difference.If you want to enjoy your life again, or even consider whether you could enjoy your career again, email me. Let's talk.
