About Me

Have you ever seen someone else’s life on social media and thought, "Wow, this person is truly living my dream life! What am I doing with my life?”

Perhaps you've considered a career transition to more meaningful non-profit or social impact work but were not sure where to start. Maybe you’ve applied to jobs but have struggled to convince potential employers that you have the “experience” required for a role in the social impact sector. If so, my Transition to the Non-Profit Sector Program might be right for you.

Does it feel like the life you have is not the one you were meant to live? Like all parts of your life would benefit from a makeover. Maybe you thought it was too late and you can’t change past critical decisions that led you to where you are today. You’re just going through the motions. What if I told you, it’s not too late and the best time to redesign your life is right now? We can embark on this journey together and work on redesigning your life without “blowing up your life.” If so, my Redesign Your Life Program might be right for you.

?Perhaps you've wondered what your true life purpose was. You know you were meant to do something meaningful in this one and only life, but never knew how to "find" or follow your purpose. It always felt like others around you had their purpose figured out, but this was missing for you. If so, my Discover Your Life Purpose Program might be right for you.

?Is goal-setting and habit formation something you dread? Are you the kind of person who is very ambitious and sets lofty goals at the beginning of the year but then by the summer you’ve forgotten all about your goals? Do you have a goal or several goals you’re working towards but are struggling to accomplish? If so, my Build the Habit Accomplish the Goal Program might be right for you.

Maybe you've dreamed of leading a more active lifestyle to improve your overall health. Every year, the "exercise more" goal always makes your New Year’s resolution list, and while the desire is there, achieving this goal never comes to fruition. With your hectic schedule and desk job, losing weight feels like an uphill battle and one you don't have time for, but you know you can't continue postponing your long-term health. If this resonates, my Build Your Exercise Habit Program might be right for you.

Hi there, I'm Margaret, a Certified Career Transition and Habit Coach, I help clients navigate career and life transitions using behavioral science, habit formation, career transition techniques, exercise science, and life design tools and thinking. I work collaboratively with clients, co-creating bespoke action plans, and providing supportive and accountable coaching sessions. Why are behavioral science, and specifically, habit techniques, such an integral part of my coaching strategy? Because most of us have habits and predictable ways of doing things, even if we don’t realize we do. Once we understand these patterns, we can use them to our advantage to build new habits that will help us achieve our goals.

There are no silver bullets, but I know true change is possible through commitment and dedication. Like most things, if you put in the work, you will see results.

Don’t you owe it to yourself to live your best possible life?
After all, we only get one shot at this thing called life. We might as well live our dream life!
