I choose to work with regulated pros (and those who lead, employ, and educate them) for two reasons: (1) I have two licenses of my own, which means I know what we’re up against, and (2) because most regulated pros are so swamped, it’s hard to find the time to figure out actual cause of a problem before deciding what to do about it, which just perpetuates the problem.
Together, we’ll examine the people, systems, expectations, and relationships shaping your work and causing you trouble, so you’ll know exactly when to move forward, confident you’re going in the right direction. My goal is to ensure your work is aligned with your values, and that you’re implementing a plan that’s responsive and intentional. You deserve the quality of life and work you were promised. We all do.
When we put off making decisions, having hard conversations or making a change we know we have to make, it’s often because we have incomplete or inaccurate information, we don’t trust ourselves or the words we want to use, or honestly … we’re just too dang tired to handle it the “right” way.
My job is to examine what’s actually going on underneath procrastination and uncertainty and fear, so we can get super specific about the outcome you actually want. But we do all this before you make a decision, Big D or little d.
I want your goals to match the reality you want to create for yourself. Examining your values and your goals, and why you have them to begin with, allows you to see where unspoken expectations and assumptions might be negatively shaping your reality. That’s actually a rather easy fix!
Our work together creates space to slow down for a moment. To make sure you’ve got all the information you need before you make decisions that affect your long-term future, at work and at home.
Hi! I’m Sheila!
My superpower is blending all of my experience and training in a way that makes your life, your work, your decisions, and yes, your legacy and impact BETTER than you ever thought possible.
I want to help you make better decisions so you can streamline and focus your energy on the people, projects, and pay that actually matter to you.
I have lots of titles: attorney, social worker, coach, consultant, Certified ScrumMaster, keynote speaker, educator, ethics trainer, and more. And while I’m proud of those titles, I am a human first and a title second – as are you. It doesn’t matter what you call yourself at work – business owner, entrepreneur, leader – you deserve the tools and skills to make decisions that feel good.
My work builds lives & businesses we love and deserve. Ones that are full of freedom, fulfillment, joy, and rest. Ones that liberate us to do the work we love while still making an impact.
I believe Clarity leads to Confidence, which then leads to Courage.
I call this the Roadmap to Courage™
It’s an awesome and never-ending cycle – on purpose!
“Sheila goes above and beyond. I can’t thank her enough for providing me with the clarity and confidence that allowed me to take my career to the next level. Her breadth of knowledge, compassion, and intuitive compass led me to a range of options and ideas that I hadn’t realized were possible, from a personal and professional standpoint. She is a coach, a strategist, and a mentor – your advocate through and through at all times.”

Working with me is simple.
“I’m getting so much out of my work with Sheila. I really appreciate that everything is organized, easy to keep up with, and clearly laid out. All of the interfaces are easy to use and Sheila makes even Zoom calls feel personalized. Sheila is a gifted coach and mentor who is skilled at listening and guiding, as well as at spotting those times when digging deeper would be beneficial. She has helped me identify what I want/need to work on and has helped me formulate a plan that feels just right, never overwhelming. I’m so grateful for Sheila for helping me finally dream my own dream.”

Let’s uncover the secret to your next steps together: You
“Sheila is an amazing attorney, business coach, and human being, who is helping me make a significant transition in my life. I am particularly impressed by her follow up to our meetings where she has recapped points of our discussion and suggested follow up steps. This has enabled me to turn our conversations into concrete plans of action that I can execute.”
— S.K.
My job is to help you get clarity about the decisions you’ve made in the past that got you where you are right now.
After we sort that out, we’ll know how to make decisions about what’s next.
So, how can I help you?
Generally speaking, most of the work we do together falls under three buckets: (1) Making Decisions, (2) Resetting Expectations & Setting Boundaries, and (3) Streamlining & Focusing.
Depending on your line of work, your roles, and your dreams, I will help you choose the right level of support that you need. I will never push you into making a decision – ever.
You’ll know you’re ready for the first step – a chat with me – when you’re willing to understand and dig deeper about the issues that are creating confusion or keeping you stuck, spinning your wheels or burned out. Sometimes, we have enough and still want more. And that’s okay, too.
