One of the largest causes of anxiety in our culture today is our individual avoidance of change. As a CTI-trained coach, I work with clients to create habits of change, in order to help them break through the walls they've built around their comfort zones. We work together to build more meaningful and expansive perspectives and lives by leaning into a regular practice of embracing the unknown. I've led workshops on overcoming your fears in public, written hundreds of posts on the topic of choosing change as a regular habit, and created a better life for myself through the practice of pushing past my comfort zone daily. Having left the education industry to become a freelance actor and singer, I fully understand the need to get comfortable with the variable nature of freelancing and entrepreneurship. This practice is ideal for anyone looking to grow in confidence, enhance their perspectives, and evolve to handle the countless changes facing us as individuals and as a global society.
