Why I Created ADE Coaching: A Space for Growth and Transformation

For years, I lived my life by someone else’s blueprint.

I followed the rules, checked the boxes, and did all the “right” things – career, family, stability – but somewhere along the way, I realized I’d built a life that didn’t fully belong to me. A life that looked fine from the outside but felt misaligned on the inside.

It took unraveling everything I thought I knew to find what I truly needed.

Out of that messy, beautiful transformation, ADE Coaching LLC was born.

Not as a business plan or a perfect next step… but as an offering. A way to support others navigating change, seeking clarity, or stepping into the unknown with courage. A space to be seen, heard, and empowered. A space I wish I had at pivotal moments in my own journey.

What ADE Coaching Is

ADE Coaching is a space for intentional growth, self-discovery, and transformation.

Coaching isn’t about giving advice or fixing people – it’s about helping you find your own answers. It’s rooted in the belief that you are already whole, resourceful, and capable of creating the life you want. Sometimes, you just need the space and support to reconnect with that truth.

As a coach, I meet you exactly where you are – whether you’re feeling stuck, standing at a crossroads, or simply ready for something more. I don’t show up with a magic wand. I show up with presence, curiosity, and a deep belief in your ability to create change.

Together, we explore:

✔️ Self-awareness and self-trust
✔️ Limiting beliefs and mindset shifts
✔️ Actions aligned with your values and vision
✔️ Sustainable progress – not perfection

I’m trained through an ICF-accredited program, which means I hold to the highest standards in the field. My coaching draws on the International Coaching Federation’s Core Competencies, and I’m also trained in the Positive Intelligence® (PQ®) method – a powerful system that helps clients recognize and rewire old thought patterns that no longer serve them.

Why It Matters

I didn’t start ADE Coaching because I had it all figured out.

I started because I know what it feels like to question everything—your identity, your purpose, your next step. I know the power of having someone in your corner who believes in your potential, even when you’re still learning to believe in it yourself.

I created ADE Coaching to be that kind of space.

Not just for advice or pep talks—but for real, grounded transformation. For people ready to live on purpose, from the inside out.

What Comes Next

In this next blog series, I’ll be pulling back the curtain on coaching – what it is (and isn’t), why it works, how Positive Intelligence plays a role, and how to begin listening to your body as a more trustworthy guide than your inner critic.

If you’ve ever thought:

“I’m ready for something more… but I don’t know what that looks like.”

“I want to feel confident in my decisions again.”

“I just wish someone could help me sort through all the noise…”

You’re in the right place.

Here’s to growth, transformation, and taking your next right step – whatever that may be.

When the Path Becomes Clear

Just like that, over the last few weeks, the chaos of the messy middle began to settle.
What once felt scattered and uncertain slowly started to come together – and most of the pieces finally fell into place.
The next steps became clear.

For us, this means two more years in Italy.
I’m choosing to treat it like a fresh start in a place I already love – a new chapter filled with intention, perspective, and growth.
And I’ll be sharing that journey with you – both personally and professionally – as it unfolds.

But clarity doesn’t always arrive so neatly.
Sometimes, it takes months – even years – in the thick of uncertainty before the fog lifts.
And that’s where coaching has made all the difference.

Coaching didn’t give me the answers.
It helped me reclaim my power to find them.

It gave me a safe space to explore options and invited me to take small, intentional steps – even before everything made sense.
It reminded me that forward movement doesn’t require certainty – only courage.

Because the truth is:
We often delay decisions out of fear – fear of making the wrong move, fear of being judged, fear of what we might lose.
But fear rarely leads us to freedom.
Love does. Clarity does.

Powerful decisions come from choosing what aligns with who we’re becoming – not who we’re afraid to be.

For a long time, I believed that if something was meant to happen, it would just fall into place.
I thought I had to wait for permission – or a sign that it was okay to move forward.
But I’ve learned that waiting can be a quiet form of fear.
And sometimes, the opportunity is already in front of you – what’s missing is your decision to act.

Yes, some parts of life are out of our control.
But not everything is.

More often than not, we have choices.
We have agency.
We can act from love instead of fear.
From power instead of paralysis.

That’s what I did.
I asked the questions.
I did the research.
I leaned into the uncertainty and took action anyway.

Eventually, things began to shift.
The clarity I had been waiting for didn’t appear before the movement – it came because of it.

That’s what coaching is about.

It’s not about fixing you.
It’s not about handing you answers.

It’s about creating a space safe enough for you to hear yourself again – a space where decisions are rooted in love, clarity, and personal power.
Not fear.
Not guilt.
Not pressure.

So let me ask:

What are you waiting for?
What’s one small step you can take today – from a place of love and power – something future you will thank you for?

In the next series of blog posts, I’ll be sharing more about my coaching journey:

  • Why I started ADE Coaching LLC
  • What coaching actually is (and what it isn’t)
  • How a method called Positive Intelligence® has helped me and my clients move forward with courage and intention

This is where clarity meets momentum.
And I’m so glad you’re here.
