Kudos on taking the next step.

You just did a scary thing.

You scheduled a call with a human – me (who may or may not be a stranger) – to talk about important sh*t.

You might now be sitting there wondering , “Should I have done that?? Am I ready? Who is this person? Is she legit? Will this be a complete waste of my time? Am I going to be bamboozled?"

Believe me, I get it. I really do. My brain does the same thing.

Breathe easy. This call is a no-pressure way to get more information, better understand what you want & need, and to explore what’s possible with qualified support. Even if you decide coaching is not for you or I am not the right coach for you, you will still walk away with clarity on next steps, a resource or two & an action item.

Stuck or swirling is no longer an option.

View the video below to get a better idea of what to expect during our call.

Asking the right questions can help make sure you are READY for coaching & helps you find the RIGHT coach for you.

The word “coaching” gets thrown around quite a bit these days, making it hard to understand what coaching actually is and what to look for in an excellent coach. (Check out this video to learn a little bit more.)

Here’s the thing, I don’t want you to invest in anything less than extraordinary, especially when it comes to coaching. That is why I have spent the last 15 years honing my talents & building my skillset with education, training, research & reading. I have worked with thousands of individuals from all sorts of backgrounds in all sorts of industries. I continue to prioritize my own growth, development & wellbeing every day so I can show up in the highest service of you every, single session.

I care deeply about this work and believe in it’s power to transform.

And like you, I strive for excellence. I do everything with my full ass.

  • I find The BLD coaching is what I have been searching for. Compassionate accountability to help me reach the goals and achieve the life I want. I have really appreciated a fresh approach where I feel validated, seen, and encouraged in my vulnerability that I feel like many people could benefit from.

  • "I would highly recommend investing in yourself and working with Andrea. She has an amazing ability to keep the whole person in mind and integrate the busy driven woman with work and life. She is very gifted at listening and then pushing you to find the possibilities in your life. I have been able to find the confidence to raise my rates to where they should have been long ago as well as book additional speaking & workshop engagements. In this season life has been relentlessly throwing down and I wouldn't have been able to accomplish as much without our coaching sessions. "

Additional FAQs

  • Coaching is not telling people what to do; it is helping them clarify and be in ownership of their life. It is helping them evaluate what they are doing now in their life in the light of their goals, dreams, values and intentions. It gives them new choices and leads to change. Coaching helps a person go beyond the mental blocks of what they thought was possible.

    Coaching works as a partnership between coach and client, it helps to clarify goals, to make them challenging and motivating, then to achieve those goals with the energy that comes from their deepest values.

    Coaches are specially trained to work with people in all walks of life to help them achieve their goals, live their values, and be the best they can be. (International Coaching Community)

  • The client comes to therapy or counseling because they want relief from psychological and/or physical symptoms.

    They want to get away from pain or discomfort rather than move towards desired goals. Therapy and counseling often seek to understand the past and what went wrong in order to be better in the present. Coaching focuses on the present and future.

    Some of the best clients are those that have participated in therapy as we use those learnings to inform designs & actions to move forward.

  • I offer different program lengths & frequencies. The program that is right for you & your goals will be discussed during your FREE Connection Call.

    Regardless of program frequency & length, all coaching programs are delivered virtually via a secure platform.

    You will also have access to your coach in between sessions for on-going, in-real-time support.

    In between sessions you will be expected to work on your action items, field work, journal reflections. Coaching is just about what happens in the session but also the effort you put into your goals in between sessions.

  • This is a really fair question and one I want you to take seriously.

    Coaching is a vessel for this amazing, intimate, high-energy, high-action relationship between humans. It’s a space for vulnerability and your whole, gritty humanity. And often this relationship is over an extended period of time. So it’s REALLY important that you find a coach with a style, vibe, and energy that fits you.

    This is why every single person I work with has a Connection Call with me first. This is a no-pressure, chemistry check. I get to learn more about you – your goals, your challenges, your story. And you get to learn about me, ask your questions & gut check whether it feels right for you.

    If I am not the right fit for you, totally fair. I will cheer you on as you find the support you are looking for. However, if coaching with me is the right for you, you’ll know.

    You’ll feel it in your bones.

    You’ve made it this far... do a gut check. If the idea of coaching is giving you butterflies or lighting a little fire within you... if it is igniting excitement & maybe some nervous energy, you are on to something.

    This is usually the intersection of your purpose, where all the magic & growth happens.

    Lean into it. Let’s connect and give you more information to work with. You can ask questions and see if this is the right fit for you.

  • The tuition for each program is different, based on duration of your coaching journey & frequency of our sessions. We will talk about what is best for you based on your goals & needs during the Connection Call.
