About Meg

So how did I get here? My career journey began in a manner similar to many others: after completing high school, I pursued a university degree with the expectation that it would lead to both fulfillment and professional achievement. Earning a B.A. in Communication Studies allowed me to focus on my interest in interpersonal communication and people-oriented work. This educational background paved the way for a job offer as a territory manager in the healthcare sector, prompting a relocation to Colorado. I was eager to leverage my education and people skills to establish meaningful connections with prospective clients, contributing to business growth within my assigned region—a goal I successfully achieved year over year. Building strong relationships proved to be my biggest strength and was instrumental to my sustained success in this role. Things were good, but as the years passed, I observed a gradual decline in my passion for the types of connections I was having. Most conversations with others felt empty because interactions in this role increasingly felt transactional and lacked emotional depth—an experience obviously not uncommon in the corporate environment. Eventually, this desire for greater connection and purpose led me to reassess whether this path aligned with my desires. The answer was no.

It is important to recognize that my pursuit of more meaningful interpersonal connections has been influenced not only by my professional experiences but primarily by my personal relationships. While relationships remain a central value in my life, my personal relationships have also presented significant challenges, periods of uncertainty, sadness, and at times considerable distress. Consequently, I was motivated to engage in significant personal work to mitigate further relational difficulties and attain a deeper sense of connection and fulfillment. Over the years, I have dedicated considerable time and effort to all facets of personal growth and development, particularly focusing on cognitive behavior, psychology, relationships, and trauma recovery. My pursuit of greater understanding has included reading numerous self-help and relationship books, enrolling in various courses, attending workshops, and engaging in therapy. While these resources provided valuable insights and were beneficial, they did not consistently translate into actionable strategies for implementing genuine change within my relational dynamics. Despite achieving increased awareness and comprehension, I continued to encounter recurring patterns and felt an enduring sense of stagnation.

My journey ultimately brought me to The Relationship School, where the emphasis was placed on leveraging curiosity and personal insight to remain present, clarify goals, and address relationship obstacles by learning and adopting new behavioral approaches. Based on both my personal experience and my training as a certified relationship coach, I have experienced and observed that seeking certain resources without also implementing new approaches and taking concrete steps toward change, doesn’t lead to progress. Relationship coaching offers support for those committed not only to learning but also to taking actionable steps to achieve meaningful and attainable change.

It was through my initial experiences of working with clients, teaching them new tools and observing their progress that I confirmed coaching as both a source of fulfillment and my professional calling. It was clear that my innate passion for deep conversation,  human connection and learning to do relationships better could all be channeled into a career of helping others overcome their own struggles, learn to connect more deeply and achieve their own relational goals. Coming to this realization was profound and exciting. Relational coaching is now my primary occupation, and I am committed to my own ongoing development through continuous education, certifications, and training to further enhance my effectiveness as a coach.

At the end of the day, we are relational beings. We all crave connection. We all want to feel seen, understood and accepted for who we are and we all want to have more secure and fulfilling relationships with others. My process involves helping clients get clear on the relationships they want so I can help support and challenge them to learn and practice the skills necessary to live into their values and create what they truly desire. By getting curious, uncovering blind spots, gaining more clarity and setting clear goals, I can help support and challenge you to have the real achievable results you wish to gain in your relational world.

Relational coaching with me is focused on all relationships, not just romantic, and I commonly work with clients who want support with:

- Gaining more clarity around what is keeping them stuck 

- Learning conflict resolution skills

- Deepening connection and intimacy

- Processing and regulating emotions

- Learning more productive ways to communicate

- Clarifying relational needs and wants

- Creating boundaries and relationship agreements

- Working through and clearing resentment

- Learning how to live a life in relationship that is more in alignment with who they really are and what they really want

 If any of this resonates with you, please contact me to schedule an initial consultation.

I look forward to working with you.
