About Lee

The first twenty years of my adult life I committed to supporting and managing my family. While it was wonderful and life-giving, I always wanted to get my degree and dig into something meaty (little did I know that raising a family over a lifetime was more than meaty!). So I went back and got my BA and jumped into the corporate world.

For over twenty years I worked in management, administration, human resources, process/systems improvement, art direction and owned my own graphic design business. I had lots of wonderful opportunities to coach employees and managers during those years.

After my husband’s unexpected early retirement, we gave everything we had to our seven kids, sold our home, bought a motorhome and hit the road. My hubby, Bill, and I did a full-time “walkabout” of the U.S.A. with our dog. We really had a blast (I think we’ve “camped” in more Walmart parking lots than anyone!). We met new people, learned what simplicity really means and enjoyed seeing all of the wonderful sites.

After six years of traveling, we came back to the midwest to take care of my Mother. All during our travels, my heart kept calling me back to coaching.

“Lee is an excellent coach. An natural encourager, Lee has the ability to listen deeply, yet speak truth when my thoughts are cloudy. By asking the right probing questions, Lee brings the best out of her clients and helps them realized their full potential. I always feel invigorated, encouraged and more aligned to my own integrity after speaking with her. She loves to see others shine.”  ~ Chris Clements

I’m a Certified Life Coach and I’m a graduate of Coach U’s Advanced Coaching Program. I am a member of the International Coach Federation and adhere to the professional standards and competency requirements of the ICF. My coaching career started in the early 1990′s when I coached management and employees in the corporate world.

I work with my clients to help them get clear on their intentions–what they most want. Then we partner to put attention to the actions necessary to get where they want to go. In the process, they birth their own wonderful jewels of discovery!

Intention + Attention = Miracles Happen!

Today, my clients are women from all walks of life, but they all have several things in common:

  • they are brilliant
  • they are in usually in transition (i.e., career, relationship, recovery, care-giver, empty-nester, retirement); and,
  • they have a passion to move forward in their lives!

I’m also a Certified Retreat Coach and a member of the Retreat Coach Network. Several years ago, I added retreat offerings because they serve as a unique opportunity for women to give themselves the space and the self-care they absolutely need.

Women + Retreats = Miracles Happen!

My passion is to help women discover or re-discover their wisdom, their answers, their dreams, and live-in their greatness–to help women thrive. I like to imagine all women putting on their best shoes, stepping over what is in their way, and running their race with clarity–to a destination that they choose on purpose! I hope we meet along the way.

Blessings, Coach Lee
