Strength & Resilience Coach for Women

I believe real change begins when you stop softening the truth. My approach blends gentle honesty, body-based awareness, and actionable guidance to help people move differently in their lives — from how they relate to themselves to how they engage with others. Healing is rarely tidy, but it’s always meaningful, and I’m here to support people through every messy, powerful step of that journey.

I’ve lived many lives: married, widowed, divorced, mother, daughter, friend — a woman who has rebuilt more than once. I know the ache, the unraveling, the questions, and the quiet victories that mark the way back to yourself.

I don’t show up as someone perfect, and I don’t expect you to be. I show up honest, curious, and deeply invested. Working with me creates a space that’s real, honest, and rooted in what’s true.

Growth rises in the middle of the chaos — not outside of it. My work is about helping you reunite your mind and your body so you can move through life with honesty, confidence, and a renewed trust in yourself. The moment you stop performing and begin hearing your own voice, everything begins to shift.

Healing, as I see it, isn’t about aesthetics or quiet rooms. It’s about truth. It’s about tending to the mental, emotional, and physical parts of you that have gone unheard. Some days that looks like somatic practices or conversations that open what’s been held tight. Other days, it’s as small as slowing down, breathing deeply, washing your face with intention, or saying “no” without apology. These simple acts aren’t indulgent; they’re how you come home to yourself.

Healing isn’t fixing what’s wrong with you — it’s remembering who you are beneath the ache.

I guide you through a mind–body–spirit approach that gently brings forward the parts of you that were muted by survival. Through somatic practices, intimacy support, and mindful self-care, you learn to build safety in your body and honesty in the spaces where you love and are loved.

Healing doesn’t demand perfection. It asks for presence — the willingness to sit with your emotions, to trust your body’s wisdom, and to honor your needs rather than dismiss them. Transformation isn’t becoming someone different; it’s returning to the truth you came into this world with.

This is the path:
• Feeling what’s been left untouched and pushed down.
• Naming what’s real and honest.
• Choosing peaceful connection instead of intense control.
• Coming home to your own heart.

Scope & Safety

As your coach, I'm here to support your personal growth, decision-making, and behavior change. However, I am not a licensed physician or mental health professional. My coaching services do not diagnose or treat health conditions. I do not provide crisis intervention or emergency support. If you're experiencing a health emergency, please contact 911 or go to the nearest emergency room immediately. You remain responsible for your own decisions and actions throughout our work together. By choosing to work with me, you acknowledge that coaching is not a replacement for professional health care or medical treatment.

About Heatherwell FAQs

Quick answers to common questions.

What’s your coaching style?
Supportive, structured, and direct when needed. I balance compassion with practical next steps so you leave sessions with clarity and momentum—not just insight.
What does AHNCC mean for a client?
It means you’re working with someone who values professional standards and ethics. You can expect clear agreements, a client-led process, and an emphasis on accountability and measurable progress.
Do you work with women outside Traverse City?
Yes. You can work together virtually from anywhere. In-person options may be available locally depending on fit and schedule.
How do I know if I should choose coaching vs therapy?
Coaching is best when you want forward-focused change: goals, boundaries, decisions, and consistent implementation. If you need diagnosis, treatment, or crisis support, therapy is the right starting point (and coaching can complement therapy when appropriate).
What outcomes do clients usually come to you for?
Recovering from burnout, rebuilding identity after a transition, setting boundaries, and regaining self-trust and confidence in decision-making.
What’s the best first step?
Book a free discovery call. I’ll talk through what you’re navigating with you and decide the simplest, most supportive next step.
