My Unique Perspective:


My story is one of hard work and unyielding self-belief. I am living proof that with the right mindset and unwavering commitment, you can turn your dreams into reality, and I’m here to guide you every step of the way. I am of Filipina-American descent and the daughter of immigrant parents. I grew up in an underprivileged multicultural environment in the Los Angeles area. These experiences have not only shaped my worldview but also fueled my commitment to creating inclusive spaces where diverse voices are celebrated and empowered. My coaching philosophy is rooted in the values of cultural diversity, gender equality, and the belief that everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive, regardless of their background or circumstances.


Empowering Women and AAPI Communities:


I specialize in working with women and individuals from AAPI backgrounds, guiding them to break barriers, embrace their unique identities, and navigate the challenges often faced in both personal and professional spheres. 


In addition to my professional journey, I’m a proud mother of two wonderful children. Balancing the demands of a successful business with the joys and challenges of motherhood has provided me with invaluable insights into work-life balance, resilience, and the pursuit of personal fulfillment. I bring this holistic perspective into my coaching practice, ensuring that your professional growth aligns harmoniously with your personal life goals.



Why Choose Me as Your Coach:


I provide a safe, supportive environment where you can explore your potential, confront challenges, and emerge stronger and more confident. I bring a unique blend of confidence, resilience, and a proven track record of achievement to our coaching relationship. I understand the power of setting bold goals and the fulfillment that comes with crushing them. I'm not just here to guide you; I'm here to inspire you to believe in your own limitless potential. If you're ready to conquer your fears, let go of your doubts, and create a life that matches your wildest dreams, you're in the right place.

FAQs

Chevron Down What is Coaching?

Coaching is defined by the International Coaching Federation as partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential.

Chevron Down What Topics Do You Specialize In?

We typically coach on the following issues:

• Time management

• Organization

• Overwhelm 

• Procrastination

• Setting Boundaries

• Anxiety (not a substitute for professional mental health services)

• Lack of confidence or low self-esteem 

• Improving Communication Skills

• Perfectionism 

• Motivation


Clients also come to coaching under the following circumstances: 

• Facing a situation or relationship that is tough or hard to navigate alone

• Feeling stuck, overwhelmed or tired not living the life they really want

• Seeking clarity in career or life 

• Career Transitions

• Improve productivity or efficiency at work (e.g. billing for time)

• Improve Leadership/Executive Decision Making 

• Improve Relationships with Family, Spouse, or at Work

• Starting up a business and not sure where to start

• Seeking more clients in their business

Chevron Down Is Coaching the Same As Therapy or Consulting?

 No, coaching focuses on the present and creating the future. Coach and client work together to close the gap from where clients are to where they want to be. 

 

Therapy is focused on healing emotional trauma or wounds from the past, whether from childhood or recent years. Coaching does not diagnose or treat mental illness. 


Consulting is where an expert in a field resolves or fixes the client’s problem and the client learns new strategies and solutions. The expert has knowledge in the subject matter area. Our coaching practice provides consulting in our coaching sessions, when appropriate. For the most part, we partner with our clients to generate solutions together. 

Chevron Down What is Coaching Like?

Should we decide to work together, you will need to complete intake paperwork before our first coaching session. We will then identify the goals you want to work towards while coaching. Each coaching session is approximately 55 minutes long. I recommend coaching weekly. After each coaching session, you walk away with practices to work on in between coaching sessions. All coaching sessions are conducted virtually through Zoom.


The length of coaching varies by engagement. We are currently offering 1:1 coaching with a 6 month engagement for new clients. 


Our coaching style is direct, empowering, and laser-focused on your goals. Together, we'll harness your inner strength, develop a rock-solid action plan, and tackle obstacles head-on.

Chevron Down Is Coaching For Me?

We work with individuals who are motivated to take action. Our clients want to take their careers or business to the next level and know they can’t do it alone. Our clients are typically interested in personal or professional development prior to coaching. They may listen to podcasts, read personal development books, watch inspiring videos, or attend workshops etc…


Who we don’t work with:

People who are comfortable where they are right now and don’t desire to take immediate action. 

People are not open to receiving another perspective or opinion about their lives or business. 

People who aren’t committed to coaching. For example, not willing to show up for scheduled coaching appointments or commit to the entire coaching program.

Chevron Down What is Your Coaching Philosophy?

1. We are committed to excellence. We provide top notch, first-class coaching services. 

2. The coaching relationship is a partnership between coach and client. We work together as a team to help you succeed. We value open and honest communication.

3. It is a privilege to be someone’s coach. Trust the process and we’ll help you get to where you want to go. 

4. The coaching relationship is professional and confidential in nature. Everything that happens in coaching stays in coaching. 

5. Quality over quantity. Everything we do is of the highest quality. We don’t feel the need to compromise quality or services to make a quick buck. 

6. Clients are capable and able. There is nothing wrong with you; you don’t need to be fixed. You have what you need to get to where you’re going. You are resourceful and have the ability and potential to express and define your own solutions. You got this!

7. We believe in the importance of cultural diversity, gender equality, and hold the belief that everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive, regardless of their background or circumstances.
