Do You Feel POWERFUL ?
Like many of you, I’ve fought battles with limiting health conditions, chronic pain, stress, anxiety, depression, and self-doubt. I’ve also learned to overcome obstacles to improvement, and to rise from the ashes. I understand what it can take to experience the things you really want from life, from the most basic to the complex.
To rise above my challenges, I’ve consistently sought resources and education to teach me how to overcome them. I learned that through resilience and by investing in myself, I could more quickly overcome or even eliminate negative, unproductive, thoughts and feelings. I learned instead to reframe my situation, focus my attention on the present, and make choices for my future in ways that are healthy and productive.
I experienced so much success with these techniques, that I found myself crossing goals and dreams off my bucket list, one after the next.
There came a point where I realized I was living my dream life, and I was able to fully embrace my purpose: To Inform, Inspire and Empower others. I embraced that one of my greatest passions is to provide life coaching and support to people who need and want to grow. I pursued training as an ICF-certified life coach, opened my business, and the rest is history.
I chose the name “Infinite Futures” for my coaching business because of the inspiration I feel when I consider that each of us have infinite paths we could follow — infinite futures we might choose to live. And while each of us have infinite path choices, we as a society also have infinite directions we might take. Visualizing these thoughts inspire feelings of empowerment, hope and excitement about life’s possibilities.
I’m a big fan of education in many forms, and a lover of change. My own love affair with learning started before I moved to Texas, before ever working at Harvard University or MIT, before completing college, before getting PADI Advanced Open Water diver certified, or becoming a certified Yoga Teacher or Master Gardener.
Before all of that, I had become a Licensed Cosmetologist, and for several years I was a hairstylist in a few Boston neighborhoods and suburbs.
My years spent as a hairstylist is really the foundation for all the other things. Especially, my desire to become a coach. Coaching is my calling, yet rewarding in ways not entirely different from my work as a hairstylist…
As a stylist, I enjoyed using my artistic skills to problem-solve, design, formulate, sculpt and treat people’s hair in ways that would help them look and feel their best. Yet I was always invested in the whole person, rather than just their hair. I spoke with my clients about every topic under the sun: health, careers, work projects, mental health, personal relationships, work relationships, confidence, science, mindset hacks, self-expression, creativity, traveling…
Through the experience of their appointments with me, people left feeling far better than when they came in. Having received high-quality and genuine support, their problem-solving abilities improved, and they were able to move forward with confidence & clarity.
I experienced happiness, fulfillment, and financial success because I could express my abilities, connect with and support others. That was what “made the magic happen” for me, and my clients.
Since then I’ve learned and grown and my goals are different. My vocation has changed. Now I’m using my passions and skills in different ways. Using concepts and techniques from my own personal and professional development and my training to be a Whole-Person Coach, I’ll help you transform into the person you want to be.
For those of you who appreciate a good metaphor:
Do you know the feelings you get from a GREAT appointment with your hairstylist?
You start with a relaxing shampoo. You might feel a bit vulnerable but you don’t mind, because you know you’re safe, and you’re giving yourself something you need and deserve. You know you’re in good hands and you find yourself breathing deeply. You feel a warm towel wrapped around your head, asked if you’re comfortable, and asked what you need and want. When you get it….you feel like a million bucks!
Do you know those feelings?
After a coaching appointment with me, you’ll experience feelings of safety and well-being similar to but much greater than those you feel after your hair appointment…and there are NO bad haircuts! You will experience support, encouragement, breakthroughs, excitement and progress!
Over time, you’ll notice shifts in your thinking, choose actionable steps, and experience real transformation and real changes in your life. You’ll gain an overall feeling of safety and well-being more and more, in all areas of your life.

Below are just a few examples of people I help and the problems they want to overcome with coaching:
- Young and mid-career adults who are struggling to live their best lives due to stress, lack of fulfillment, overwork, inconsistent confidence, or something else – and want to know what they need to do to change their situation.
- Students struggling with pressure, emotions, fear of failure, motivation, focus, or expressing themselves – and are receptive to encouragement and able to explore and share their own thoughts and feelings.
- People who want to learn how to publish books on Amazon to promote their business or for personal fulfillment – and are determined to publish a book through my training and coaching within 6 months or 1 year.
By working with me and exploring ideas and resources within yourself, you will grow to know and wield your own power.
Your transformation will give you the ability to overcome any obstacle, and make any changes you want for your life.
