That feeling of being unseen, unheard, or dismissed—it cuts deep, doesn't it? It can feel as if you're the only one struggling to find your voice.
But here's what I want you to know: you are not alone.
Your courage to be seen will help others find theirs, too.

We are closing in on the end of another year. Are you happy with your current situation? Do you have a plan for moving forward that is realistic and workable?
Talking through your situation with someone who will really listen can be eye-opening.
My role is to listen.

Boundaries are essential to our physical and mental health. It takes courage to establish these boundaries because you will find yourself needing to say “no” more often. But we also need to grow.
Growth requires flexibility.
You can have it both ways. I can help.

When you finally decide that it is time to talk to someone about your job, your career, or your life, the last thing you need is someone who tries to squeeze you into one of their pre-built solutions.

In just a few short weeks, you can tally up your accomplishments and misses for the year and think about the goals for next year. By the way, did you have 3 or more goals?
Why not focus on just one or two goals for 2026?
I can help you find that focus.

You are still trying to move up in your career and feeling frustrated by the lack of support that you get. You feel unheard, unseen, and underappreciated. But the current job market isn't good. Just wait out the storm and hope that 2026 will be better?
That’s not a plan.

I enjoy the times I get to spend with Phoebe, my daughter's dog.
Our pets know us better than we may realize. They know when we are feeling low, and they remain close to us.
These are sentient beings. They require very little from us, yet they give us so much in return.

Are you tired of having people speak over you or just ignoring what you have to say? Or are you simply trying to muster the courage to speak up?
You can’t control the behavior of others, but you can change your presence in the room. I can help you with that.

There is a recurring issue within your team. You have ideas, but no one is listening to you.
Speak with confidence (preparation), and without emotion or judgment (building trust). It is not easy, it may take some time, but it is effective.

What are the things that you will remember from this year? If those memories consist primarily of work, politics, health scares, or worries about the future, you are missing out on the primary goal – to live!
It's not too late to build that memory.

The frustration of feeling invisible can be more than just frustrating.
You feel unseen and unheard. But invisibility can be a two-way street. You may not be seeing the whole picture either.
You have, within you, the secrets to your own success.
Let me help you bring those out.

Why do you doubt your ability to take on more responsibilities or a higher position?
John Keats wrote about negative capabilities, which he defined as living in doubt and mystery “without any irritable reaching after fact and reason.” OK for a poet...but not for you!
