LIVE AUTHENTICALLY
A 12-week transformational coaching experience to step into the life you were always meant to live.
Can you recall the last time you felt like the best version of yourself? What were you doing? Who were you with? How did it feel? This is your authentic self.
Now imagine having the tools so every day of your life feels like this. You're clear about who you are and confidently pursue your goals. Your relationships are energizing and the people you spend time with honor and appreciate your needs and feelings because you've clearly communicated what's important to you. The work you do (whether you get paid for it or not) is a full body YES feeling and in alignment with what you value most.
This is your reality when you discover your chosen values. Your life starts to shift and you magnetize your heart's desire. With your values as your guides, you can make intentional choices with confidence that transform you into the person you were always meant to be. You have your unique roadmap to live authentically.
MY JOURNEY WITH THIS WORK
I didn't always lead an aligned, authentic life. Before starting Chosen Directions I was living life on autopilot, repeating patterns of behavior that left me feeling drained. I was in a long-term relationship where I felt lonely and unfulfilled. I was climbing the corporate ladder and beginning to burn out at work. I longed for my family that were 3,000 miles away.
I wasn't happy with how I was spending my time and the impact I was having. I was putting everyone's needs above my own.
I was looking for answers but lacked confidence to identify what was right for me. I knew I needed to make a change but didn't know how.
But then I discovered my chosen values and everything started to fall into place. I got curious about who I am and what drives me so I could live more authentically. This sent me on a journey to fundamentally change my life into one that is in alignment with what’s important to me and how I want to show up in the world.
I now had the tools to move through any scenario and make decisions that felt really good and rewarding. Like I was living the life I was always meant to be living.
This clear sense of direction led me to take steps towards my aligned, authentic life. I left my relationship. I moved across the country to be closer to family. I found my dream home. I met my fiancé. I quit my job. I started consulting exclusively with people who honored my values. I deepened relationships that honored my feelings and needs. I launched a business that I'm so passionate about and feel so aligned in. I became a certified coach.
I’ve gone on a journey of living my life according to my values and along the way realized I want to help other people do that, too. I serve people at a crossroads who are also trying to answer these big questions, but don’t want to do it alone.
Because it’s possible - and rewarding - to live your most fulfilled life. And that starts with living in alignment with the foundation of your values.
Discover if you have
clear, chosen values vs. unclear or inherited values
Values are the principles that govern how you want to act. They are often described as your personal compass because they help you choose the direction in which you want to move through life and keep you on track as you go.
They may sound like a foreign concept, but you likely have inherited values that have been passed on to you through family, friends, jobs, religion, school, etc. In this program, you'll transform into your authentic self when you go from having inherited or unclear values to discovering your clear, chosen values.
three step FRAMEWORK
1
explore who you are
We’ll begin by taking an inventory on your value system and what drives your daily behaviors. Through conversations with loved ones, journaling and reflection, you'll analyze what you uncover, start to identify themes and consider which behaviors make you feel like your best self.
2
discover your authentic self
We’ll take what we learned and “try on” different values. By the end of this phase, you’ll select and define the values you want to incorporate into your life. You'll hone in on values by considering which are fear based or purpose driven, and whether you're already living these values or if they are aspirational.
3
pursue an aligned life
We’ll introduce tools to use your values in your daily life, specifically as it relates to your magic three (self, relationships, and work). You'll set goals and understand how your values can help you achieve them. Then you will adopt a weekly check-in practice that will help you maintain your values and make adjustments as needed.

-
Is the program right for me?We think people of all ages and backgrounds will benefit from the program, especially if you are experiencing or anticipating a life transition (career pivot, recent breakup, moving cities, becoming a parent, etc.). Our alumni have walked away with greater clarity on their values, an understanding of how to set aligned goals, and a supportive community of others committed to being their authentic selves. If you’re unsure if this is the right thing for you, submit an application sharing more information about yourself and your interest and I will book a follow up call to discuss your interest and concerns to make sure it’s right for you.
-
Will the program be in person?No, we will meet virtually for twelve (12) consecutive weeks. I ask that you join with your camera on as I've found that seeing each other deepens the experience, but understand this isn’t always possible or preferred.
-
What if I can’t attend all weekly sessions?We ask that participants attend all scheduled sessions as the curriculum was created to be completed in succession over the course of fourteen weeks with instruction. We understand that things happen, and will provide one makeup class if a session is missed. We ask that you provide 24 hour notice if possible before missing a session and schedule your makeup class within that same week. If you miss more than one session, we will need to enroll you in a future program that better aligns with your schedule.
-
What is the difference between the group and VIP program?The group program will have a maximum of five participants and will include opportunities for individuals to share as little or as much as they’d like through guided prompts and discussion. Those that have joined the group program have said that the group setting was a very supportive component that held them accountable and allowed them to consider different perspectives and inspire them to try new patterns of thinking. This is a great option for those who are seeking community and enjoy learning and growing alongside others. The VIP program will be private one-on-one sessions, where you will receive dedicated support and an experience that is catered to your direct needs. You will still be encouraged to share as little or as much as you’re comfortable, and will complete the same curriculum as the group program. This is a great option for those that like to learn at their own pace and are less comfortable sharing in a group setting.
-
When will the program begin?The next group program will begin in early 2025. We will confirm exact dates and timing based on participants availability and preference. The VIP program will begin based on the participant's preferences, and we’ll select a time based on the individual’s availability.
