I would like to give gratitude and big hugs to the people in my community who have raised me, loved me, bestowed wisdom on me, coached me, and in many cases, continue to support me to channel my eccentric and creative energy in meaningful ways.
π
Thank you to my first clients who helped give me the opportunity to test out my career confidence program, provided feedback, and helped me discover my coaching style. You have helped me mold and shape this into something even more valuable for changemakers!

A big thank you to Libby Morley, Kristen Cory, Net Impact Boston, and Rising Tide RI who helped co-plan and facilitate my events, helping to spread the self-love and tools!
π
And a shout out to the people whose work and insights have informed my coaching and business practices, as well as my beliefs which have gone into creating my methodology and toolkit. Iβm grateful, no matter whether Iβve worked with you face-to-face or received nuggets of wisdom from afar.

I want to give credit where credit is due. I appreciate and have gained useful insight from elements of their work I think are worth sharing. I do not necessarily endorse all actions, beliefs, and teachings of the individuals and their organizations. This list is a work in progress as I develop my practice, dive deeper into the lineage of these peopleβs works, and recognize the impact that people have on my worldview.
