Finance Executive
Natalie’s coaching goes far beyond the ‘here and now’ – she is attuned to your energy and taps into the full mind-body connection of how our careers shape who we become, how we show up, and our entire lives.

Private Equity Operating Executive
I reached out to Natalie at a moment in my career where I faced key decisions and needed to find courage and clarity to define my path forward. I was struggling with being overly self-critical and getting out of my own way so that I could take action.
Working with Natalie, I have not only gained a better grounding and come up with a plan of action but also feel more self-compassion and have tools to help me approach decision-making as a whole-body experience.
If you are a high achiever who is running low on jet fuel and needs to reconnect with the source of power, or if you're setting out on a tough climb and need to gather courage and confidence, Natalie is the coach for you. She has a rare skill of being warm, empowering, and nonjudgmental while still holding you accountable and making you aware of self-limiting beliefs and inconsistencies in your thinking. She can light up the path to your essence and guide you there, tipa tipa :).
Start-up Co-founder
Natalie has done so much for me…it’s difficult to pinpoint just one thing. She helped me see clearly what I wanted to call into my career (work within the intersection of tech and mental health) and gave me tactical guidance on how to do this. Her encouragement and specific feedback crafting a message to my network led me to take risks, be vulnerable and put out my authentic self... within a month I had an offer to a dream job at a start-up in the mental health space. I felt 10x more fulfilled and energized in this work.
I get value and clarity from every interaction I have with Natalie. Not only that but I walk away feeling energized, seen, supported, and ready to take my next step. If you're considering working with a coach, know that Natalie was put on this earth to do this work. You will not regret connecting with her.
Tech Entrepreneur
I worked with Natalie when I was at a crossroad in my career, facing a complex decision about changing industries and its impact on my career and family life.
She helped me identify key characteristics—bravery, integrity, authenticity—and align my decisions with them. We explored both visible factors, like benefits and title, and less tangible ones, such as personal growth, showcasing my talents, and being the mother I wanted to be.
Natalie’s style is supportive and direct, and wrapped in a magnetic-type of kind energy. She prompted me with questions to externally process through my situation and see it more holistically. Natalie gave me the unbiased, executive counsel I needed to decipher the best path forward, and she taught me a lot about myself in the process.
