Supporting Young Adults
Young adulthood is a season of enormous change. It’s a time when many people are figuring out who they are, what they believe, and what direction they want their lives to take. While this stage can be exciting, it can also feel overwhelming and uncertain. For many years, I’ve had a deep heart for encouraging young adults as they navigate these important transitions.
What some people see as a difficult stage of life, I often see as a window of great potential. I love helping young people recognize their strengths, build confidence, and move forward with greater clarity and direction.

Why This Work Matters to Me
Part of my passion for supporting young adults grew out of personal experience. As a parent, I watched my own teenager struggle with procrastination, anxiety, low energy, poor sleep habits, and discouragement. It was a difficult season for our family, and at times it felt overwhelming to know how to help. That experience opened my eyes to how much support young people — and their parents — often need during these years.
When I later discovered coaching, I immediately saw how powerful it could be. I realized that the same kind of encouragement, accountability, and thoughtful conversation that helped my own family could also help many other young people move through challenging seasons with greater clarity and confidence.

From Mentor to Coach
Before becoming a coach, I co-founded a nonprofit mentoring program dedicated to helping underserved teens get into and through college. I dove into this work wholeheartedly, investing nearly two decades encouraging young people and helping them see new possibilities for their lives.
As the volunteer Executive Director, I spent nearly twenty years walking alongside students as they navigated school, relationships, and important decisions about their future. During that time, I personally mentored more than 400 disadvantaged young people. There was nothing more rewarding than watching their confidence grow and seeing them begin to believe in what they were capable of achieving.
Becoming a certified coach felt like a natural next step — a way to build on those years of mentoring experience and support young people in an even more intentional and structured way.

How This Fits into My Work Today
While much of my coaching work today focuses on supporting women through seasons of change and transition, encouraging young adults is still something I care deeply about. These years of mentoring shaped my heart for coaching and remain one of the most meaningful parts of my life’s work.
When the opportunity is a good fit, I’m always glad to have conversations with young adults who are looking for guidance, encouragement, and a safe place to think through important decisions about their future.
Helping people gain clarity, build confidence, and move forward one thoughtful step at a time continues to be one of the most rewarding parts of the work I do.
If you’re a young adult looking for clarity, encouragement, and thoughtful guidance for your next season of life, you’re welcome to reach out and start a conversation.
