Hi, my name is Shelli, and I’m a lot like you!

I’m someone who understands the challenges of balancing a demanding career with the responsibilities of family while striving for more joy, balance, and fulfillment - and less stress, anxiety, and overwhelm. I’m deeply committed to both my work and my family, often feeling the pull of both. Finding harmony between these aspects of life is a struggle many of us face. As a coach, I help professionals like you navigate this delicate balance and create a life that honors both your career and your well-being. 

With a degree in Chemical Engineering from Georgia Tech and over 20 years in engineering consulting, I’ve spent my career honing my skills in problem-solving and efficiency. My analytical mind thrives on organization and optimization, and I believed I could apply that same approach to every area of my life. However, despite my best efforts and careful planning, balancing a demanding career with family responsibilities proved to be far more challenging than I ever imagined.  

From a young age, I was taught that I could do anything, and I threw myself wholeheartedly into building my career. But as my family grew, so did my responsibilities, and somewhere along the way, I lost sight of who I was. I became tired, frustrated, and overwhelmed, often feeling like I was drowning in a sea of expectations - many of which were my own. Sound familiar? 

One night, when my anxiety and overwhelm were at an all-time high, I knew something had to change. Feeling stuck and uncertain, I began searching for answers. During my search, I came across a life coach whose message resonated deeply with me. After learning more about life coaching, I realized it was exactly what I needed. I needed someone who could help me gain clarity, evaluate my life from a fresh perspective, and guide me through identifying and overcoming the limiting beliefs that were holding me back. I needed an ally who could help me create a path forward - one that aligned with my values and would lead me toward the joy, balance, and fulfillment I longed for. 

That discovery was a turning point.  

Through being coached, I learned how to live more consciously, aligning my actions with my true self and rediscovering my joy. I also learned how my brain works - not only how to leverage its strengths, but also how it can trick us and hold us back because its primary function is to keep us alive and well, not necessarily happy or fulfilled. Understanding this helped me manage overwhelm and make decisions with more clarity and confidence. The insights and tools I gained were so powerful and transformative that I felt compelled to share them with others. I soon realized that helping professionals - especially those who felt as overwhelmed and disconnected as I had - was my calling. So, I took a leap of faith, and this analytical, risk-averse engineer became a certified life coach, passionate about guiding others toward a more fulfilling, intentional life. 

As a life and mindset coach, I’m here to support you through both the good days when everything feels in place and the tough days when it’s hard to keep it together. I want to remind you of your strength, your worth, and the incredible potential within you. 

You are a powerful force in this world with a unique gift only you can offer. Let me help you rediscover your strengths and reignite your passion for life. 

Together, we can restore the joy and fulfillment often lost in the hustle of daily life, cultivating better relationships and greater confidence. 

I believe in you and have full confidence in your ability to reclaim your power and create the life you deserve - a life that you love. 

With much love, 

Shelli
