Hi! I'm Carol

A bit about me...

I am a daughter, sister, wife, and mom. The relationship that makes the ones I just mentioned successful, is my relationship with God.  Pretty much, anything that I might do well is because of Him.

​

I have been married to my best friend (cliché I know, but true) for 30 years and together we have raised two boys who are now young men. They are entering the season of striving towards their adult goals, but the cool thing is that we all still love hanging out together!  While we continue to guide and mentor their paths, often they are now the ones teaching us. 

​

I have a master's degree in counseling psychology (because why people do the things they do has intrigued me since I was a kid). I became a certified personal life and health coach and Integrative Health Practitioner several years ago because a life coach changed my life quite unexpectedly. I have 20 years’ experience working directly with young children and their families, which has given me a wealth of experience on personalities, development, self-regulation, and the importance of an array of life skills needed for both the parent and the child.

​

What feeds my soul is serving people, particularly, the ones who might not feel seen.  I love being near the ocean, hiking, mountain biking, writing, photography, and camping.  I am a minimalist who is not a fan of “stuff” but a big fan of connection. 

​

I believe that who we spend our time with, how we move and nourish our bodies gives us a fighting chance. I believe that our capacity to forgive, to give grace, and to love with vulnerability, gives the world a fighting chance.
