“I admired Erin very early on because she is so great at what she does while having the kindest heart.” - D.N.
I am a holistic executive and leadership coach for high-achieving women who want to live, lead, and be well.
I’m equal parts strategist and guide.
What sets my work apart? My coaching isn’t about pushing harder; it’s about leading differently so you can live better. I’m not just here to help you push more and perform higher. I’m here to help you feel better while you succeed.
My approach blends structure and soul — something I call Practical/Magic.
So while I bring all the strategy, systems, and frameworks to help you excel professionally and the nervous system work, energetic care, and grounded presence to help you stay well as you are achieving.
I care deeply about both — your success and your well-being — because you deserve a version of success that sustains you.

Beliefs That
Shape My Work
- I believe every woman deserves a life and career that lights her up more than it burns her out.
- I believe success that robs you of your well-being isn’t success at all.
- I believe in dreaming big, planning small, and acting with consistency.
- I believe it’s absolutely possible to be wildly ambitious and deeply well.
- I believe there aren’t enough leadership tools to outpace a dysregulated nervous system.
- I believe you can make substantial progress in just 90 days.
- I believe in the power of gathering women.
- I believe in collaboration over competition.
- I believe we need more women leading and making impact.
- And I believe each those women deserve a path and plan to do so while having the time, energy and well-being to enjoy their lives.
These beliefs aren’t just ideas. They’re the foundation of how I coach and how my clients create change that lasts.
You’re Invited To Start Your Change With One Simple No-Strings Attached Consultation Call.
I believe you are here for a reason.
I believe you are ready for more.
Two things are true about me.
I’m ambitious — with big dreams and goals.
And I’m not willing to sacrifice my well-being, joy, or values to reach them.
For years, those truths felt at odds.
We’re taught that success requires sacrifice — that to achieve big things, we have to move fast, play by the rules, and live with the cost.
But I never believed that. Something in me always knew there was another way.
After more than twenty years leading teams, building two businesses, and thousands of hours coaching women to thrive without burning out, I can see my story clearly.
It’s unfolded in seasons — each one teaching me a new definition of success and a new way of being well.
My Journey:
Learning to live,
lead and be well
Hey, I'm Erin.
Early in my career, I was determined to “make it.”
I chased every opportunity, said yes to everything, and measured my worth by my output.
And I was anxious all the time.
That season taught me an important truth:
Success that costs your well-being isn’t success at all.
I learned to pay attention to how my work made me feel.
If it felt misaligned, draining, or suffocating, I gave myself permission to change something — to advocate for myself, to shift how I showed up, or to walk away entirely.
season one
My SEasons Of Success
Eventually, I found my rhythm. The work felt good, the people were great, and I was thriving.
But the very thing that made me valuable — being reliable, the one who could handle it all — also kept me stuck.
I was seen as the doer, not the strategist.
And the more I delivered, the harder it was for others to see me differently.
Then it hit me:
Success that keeps you small isn’t success at all.
I rebranded myself — first internally, then externally. I started showing up as a strategic voice, not just a dependable pair of hands. That shift changed everything.
success that keeps you small isn't success
success that sacrifices your well-being isn't success
season two
When I reached senior leadership, I thought I had arrived.
Then came the next opportunity — the CEO/COO-level conversation — and my entire body said no.
Climbing that ladder didn’t feel like success anymore.
So I paused and asked myself what success looks like now.
The answer was clear: it was time to build something of my own.
That choice led me here — doing work that feels like both purpose and legacy.
Helping women redefine success on their own terms, and build lives and careers that don’t just look good on paper, but feel good to live.
For me, success now means alignment. Impact. Legacy.
success is legacy
This isn’t my final season. There will be more.
But here’s what I know: because I’ve done this work — learned to listen, honor transitions, and build the nervous system capacity for change — I’ll be ready for what’s next.
I’ll have the tools, trust, and courage to step into it.
That’s the work I do now:
Helping ambitious women define success on their own terms.
Helping them rewrite the rules, honor their seasons, and build lives and careers that don’t just look successful — they feel good.
Because that’s the point.
To live well.
To lead well.
To be well.

As a coach, I show up at the intersection of success and well-being — where goals, strategies and soul come together. And, frankly, I often show up when my clients have tried the more traditional route just to find that isn't enough.
This is what I call my Practical/Magic method of coaching.
The practical is what most people expect: strategy, systems, frameworks, and leadership tools that create real results.
The magical is what they don’t — the work of alignment, embodiment, energy, and nervous system mastery.
The truth? We need both: the tools that solve real-world challenges and the energetic work that helps us hold our success without burning out.
We they come together, they create what I call embodied success — achievement that feels as good as it looks.
Most executive coaching focuses on one side — the side that creates results. Improved leadership, KPIs hit, goals achieved.
My work integrates both. I’ll help you grow, lead, and perform at a high level — and stay happy, healthy and well while you do it.
I'll meet you where you are. If you love structure and strategy, I’ll introduce energy and regulation tools in a way that feels accessible. If you’re drawn to inner work, we’ll ground it in systems that bring it to life.
Think of it like building a house: the practical creates the frame; the "magic" makes it feel like home.
That’s Practical/Magic — and it's what makes my method different.
Coaching with me is both transformative and tactical.
You’ll walk away with tools that work and a nervous system that can actually hold your success.
