You know you're here to make a difference in the world AND you want to enjoy your life.
You're smart, strong, and super capable and you've done a lot of work to grow from hardships.
Yet you feel stuck, like you've hit a success plateau and you're not sure what you're missing let alone how to overcome it.
You are not alone and there's nothing wrong with you!
Brains love patterns. Most of them are subconscious and many are tied to learned stories that block your intuition.
So, of course you feel like your head and your heart are disconnected and you're continuously sabotaging yourself!
You CAN retrain your brain, take back control, and develop the self-trust to confidently create your life YOUR way.
And that's what I'm here to help you do.
Hey there! I'm Valerie.
I help passionate, high-achieving women pulled between work and family to create a fulfilling life that honors their whole self.
Based in Chicago and supporting clients world-wide, I'm a Professional Certified Life Coach with a background spanning more than two decades in science and spiritually-based personal and professional development practices.
If you want to focus your energy, align your head and heart, follow through on your goals, and play full out on your life journey - without burning out - you're in the right place!
Our society has a multitude of limiting beliefs about life, love, and what it takes to be successful as a woman. Many of these beliefs have infused our subconscious with self-sabotaging patterns.
Like you, I know the desire to be a calm, self-confident, and purposeful leader both at home and through my work in the world.
My job is to help you understand your patterns and consciously shift them, reclaiming your power to make an impact AND joyfully live life YOUR way.

My philosophy is rooted in individual empowerment with social system awareness. I advocate being anti-racist, pro-love, and learning-oriented.
I work with clients around time, money, stress, impostor syndrome, organization, productivity, work/life balance, focus, motivation, and more. But we do it a little differently...
I don't use approaches like: think more positive, fake it till you make it, figure out the right way to work smarter, unpack your past over and over, or fix you advice.
In my coaching, we honor your lived experiences, acknowledge where you are now, and help you:
💜Deprogram harmful internalized stories
💜Relearn to hear and trust your intuition
💜Reclaim your authentic way of living life
💜Cultivate a graceful resilience for when life happens
In this way we connect your head and heart, so you can get off the emotional roller-coaster of indecision and take consistent, energized action toward your goals – without sacrificing what's really important to you (ya know, like your health).
Okay, so how?
