Personal Coaching

Already competent in your field and now want to have more satisfaction and meaning?
Figuring out how to have more time for yourself when there's already too much on the plate?
Want to feel more confident and less stressed out?
Has life become the turnip instead of the juicy mango?

I'm Carol Ross, a certified professional coach who has traveled the path from competence to meaning, from having part of a life to having a whole life, from reacting to choosing. In the process, I've become more alive, creative, and purposeful in my life. My goal as a personal coach is to help you achieve the same, whatever form that takes. To read more about my journey, read Interview.

Does This Sound Like You?

I work with INTELLIGENT mid-career professionals who want to go to the next level by embracing whole brain thinking. Using the left brain and right brain together provides:

Expertise with Curiosity
Discipline with Creativity
Knowledge with Intuition

The next level might be competence with less stress, a bigger leadership role within an organization, striking a better balance between work and personal life, or finding work that fits like a cashmere sweater instead of the t-shirt that shrunk in the dryer.
