Am I the only one who feels like life moves so quickly.  At times one might feel they are experiencing a dream rather than reality?  You might say it’s as if our feet aren’t quite touching the ground, surreal.  As I looked back ten years ago, I would never have guessed I would end up where I am, with the experiences I have had over this heartbreaking, gratifying, astonishing, and precipitous sense of wonder and accomplishment simultaneously.  I exited from a lucrative career with the insurance industry, discovered coaching, participated in adoption support assistance to begin my search for my biological family.

I sincerely enjoyed the work I did for corporate America.  I traveled around the nation and gained access to an arena where and I was welcomed once everyone overcame their hesitation.
Once I separated from the insurance industry, I felt unsure about my ability to move on to “something else’.

During a therapy session, my therapist suggested coaching because I had discussed my desire to help others beyond the surface level endeavor of interest to my corporate employer, which achieved minimal satisfaction and had a significant impact on my employer’s profit margin.  I wanted to assist people with their daily struggles.  I decided to enroll in an International Coaching Federation training program.  This decision placed me at a junction that changed the trajectory of my life.

A light bulb ignited, and something inside me drew me toward trying to understand my core and being raised in a multicultural home with parents that were not my biological parents. I had never stopped to take inventory about how this reality had affected me.  I knew I had to investigate internally and explore externally to find answers to who understand my formation.

I learned my biological family lived just across the bay and that they had been there all along. My parents had not married, both sides of my family resided less than an hour away from where my adoptive parents raised me.  I met all of my family, and I am blessed to have met my father at age 93.  There’s more to this story, and I cannot wait to share this with you.  It is the foundation of who I am and why I have chosen to provide consulting and coaching services to families that want to adopt.  I know God has placed me in this place with this expertise and motivation for a reason.
