Meet Linda

I didn't come to coaching because life was easy.

I lost both of my parents by the time I was thirty. I've walked mental health struggles in my family, a child's type one diabetes diagnosis, a child navigating a gender transition, parenting adult kids, and a marriage that nearly didn't make it. The tools I eventually found didn't fix any of that. They helped me carry it, and they helped me find a path forward.

Once I felt that for myself, I couldn't not share it. The lessons I was learning were never meant for me to just sit and hold.

How I show up

I listen to hear you, not to figure out what to say back.

I've always been the person friends and family came to when they needed to talk something through. A loyal, trusted sounding board. Someone to bounce ideas off of. I won't try to fix you, because I don't believe you're broken. You already have the answers inside you. Most of the time you already know the next best step, you're just afraid to take it into the unknown. I'm here to walk with you and help you say the words out loud.

You can't change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.

Why the hive

The bees aren't a logo. They're my actual life.

I keep bees, and tending a hive taught me more about this work than any course could. It's quiet and patient. You show up a little at a time, you pay attention, and you protect the space so everyone in it feels safe. That's what I want The Hive to be for women: a place to feel safe, seen, and less alone in whatever season you're in.

Credentials, so you know I've done the work

Certified, trained, and lived-in.

I'm certified through The Life Coach School and as a Christian Life Coach through Life Mentoring School. Just as much, I'm a midlife woman who has actually lived the seasons I coach other women through. That's the part no certificate gives you.

A note on faith

Faith is part of my life. It's never a lecture.

My faith shapes how I show up, gently and without an agenda. You don't have to share it to work with me, and you'll never be preached at here. Whoever you are and wherever you are, you're welcome in this space exactly as you are.

Linda helped me get my weeks under control by teaching me simple habits to reframe my thinking when I'm overwhelmed, and her Sunday Planning keeps me organized and in control. I wish I'd started sooner.

Let's just get on the phone for a bit.

We'll see if it's a good fit, and go from there. No pressure, no obligation, no script.
