Rediscover what is possible.

Coaching for ambitious moms who are ready to make themselves a priority and find clarity, confidence, and purpose in their career journey.

BECOMING UNSTUCK

Mid-Career
Pivot for Moms

Don’t let fear of change keep in you stuck in a job that no longer makes sense for you or your family. It’s time to prioritize finding a career that lights you up, and will provide a balanced, fulfilling life, without the guilt.

POST-PAUSE LIFE

Returning to Work After Kids

As you begin to craft your post-pause story, it’s important to re-evaluate what is most important to you today. With support, you can find confidence and clarity in a career that will excite you and also inspire your children.

MANAGING THE JUGGLE

Work- Life Balance

It’s impossible to be everything to everyone. It’s important to understand how to create boundaries, remove what drains you, and reframe the guilty thoughts that often come with trying to do it all.

RECONNECT WITH YOURSELF

Renewing Your Fulfillment

Moms are often so focused on the minutia of family life that they forget their own needs and desires. Coaching turns the focus inward, allowing you to feel supported in your larger goals and dreams.

We are not who we were 20 years ago

…and what motivates us now has changed. Our lives, our values, and our priorities have evolved. I help my clients achieve awareness of themselves and their needs, and help them discover what brings them satisfaction and purpose today.

As we journey through these changes, many of us feel a pull towards a career pivot—a move towards a profession that not only challenges us but also aligns with our current passions, values, and the balance we seek in life.

Let’s work together to proactively create a life that works for you—one where your career is a source of fulfillment and joy, not just a means to an end.

I specialize in helping clients achieve awareness of themselves and their evolving needs, guiding them to discover not just what brings them satisfaction and purpose today, but how to translate those revelations into a career that ignites passion without sacrificing balance or inducing guilt.

This is your sign that now is the time to…

Rediscover Your Spark

Wave goodbye to the feelings of being stuck and insecure. Embrace a journey of self-discovery that reignites your passions, drives, and dreams, transforming uncertainty into clear, actionable paths forward.

Reclaim Your Sleep and Energy

Say farewell to sleepless nights and draining days. Learn strategies and routines that restore your rest, boost your energy, and empower you to tackle each day with renewed vigor and motivation.

Overcome Guilt and Fear with Confidence

Release the weight of guilt and navigate fears with a newfound confidence. Discover the power of positive self-talk and mindset shifts that celebrate your achievements and recognize your worth beyond your roles.

Find Your Identity Beyond Motherhood

Reconnect with the person behind the title of 'mom'. Explore interests, hobbies, and goals that reflect your unique identity, fostering a sense of fulfillment and balance in both your personal and parenting journeys.

Transform Sunday Scaries into Peaceful Preparation

Turn the dread of the week ahead into a calm, organized anticipation. Equip yourself with tools and routines that make Sunday a day of relaxation and positive planning, setting the stage for a successful, stress-free week.

It can be overwhelming and daunting to even contemplate making a change. It is often difficult to find time for yourself when juggling the demands of work and unforeseen issues that come up at home daily. Making time for you and your goals is not just important, but critical to your success as a parent and partner.

As a coach, I believe that every client has the answers within, and I will guide you as you unravel the layers to create the change you seek.

Success Stories

I kept thinking that I "should" be able to do it all.

Dara helped me see that I am already doing enough and helped me become comfortable with the idea that I can't do it all. Her guidance in identifying my values helped me hone in on a new professional area that I would like to pursue when I am ready. Going forward, I expect she will help hold me accountable for taking steps in that direction.
-SUSANA
I was stuck in a cycle of feeling bad about myself and my job and too burnt out to improve my situation.

After working with Dara, I started approaching each new meeting and exchange as an opportunity to change the narrative and began leaning into my strengths and talents. Dara helped me move through a professional maze and be intentional about the path I wanted to take. I constantly recommend her services to anyone who is feeling overwhelmed juggling work and motherhood.
-ANDIE
Dara is amazing.

I came to her at a crossroads in my career post-children, and she helped me clarify my goals, get to the root issues, and, ultimately, make a decision that I felt confident in. She is intuitive and honest and just a wonderful sounding board, guide, and ally. I would recommend her coaching services to anyone that needs a supportive and clear-eyed counselor to help them navigate their career at any stage.
