Hi, I am Martha
Would you like to find more joy?
Are you ready to step into the person you know you can be?
Do you want to live a more intentional life?
I'm here to help you create a peaceful, easeful, prosperous and joyous life!
I love being a life coach. I love helping people step into a more fulfilling and purposeful life, finding peace and ease as they explore what they want, why they want it, and the mindset that helps create it.
Infinitely curious and passionate about learning, I am always asking, “how can I go deeper? How can I evolve more, create more, lean in more and face whatever fears are coming up for me? And how do I walk couragiously forward into what life presents to me?”
My clients have the same questions. And so I take my own work into my coaching practice, dedicated to serving and being the best coach I can be to help them reach their goals, become great decision makers and fearless participants in a life well lived, while being deep listeners of their souls .
Typically smart, busy, curious, and ambitious with a haunting sense that there is more to life than they are living, my clients want to continue to grow and evolve, get out of their own way, and let go of a need to control.
I understand. I get it. I see you. And this commitment is so much more successful when you can do the work with the help of a guide who is unconditionally accepting and loving.
I would love to help you find your MORE.
Born in Georgia, I graduated with a BA in psychology from Vanderbilt University. After college, I found my way to California, where I have lived for over 40 years. I spend half of the year in Laguna Beach, where my husband and I raised our 2 girls, and I now spend the other half in the mountains of western North Carolina. In both places, I find joy in my passions, some of which are gardening, hiking, golf, yoga, qigong, community theater and dance.
Because of my life-long search for my more, my love of learning, my desire to keep a wide open mind and heart, I have a long list of certifications.
With over 10 years’ experience in coaching, I have watched my clients meet and exceed wildly improbable goals, realize solutions to challenges that they never dreed possible or were surprised to see manifest the ways in which they did.
In my own life, I have seen miraculous outcomes to obstacles, accidents and medical prognoses that had minimal chances of happy endings.
I believe in the impossible. I believe in infinite possibilities.
Miracles? Absolutely. I see them every day.
It all starts with an open mind, an open heart and a little willingness.
Trying to find the self-trust, the “right” answers, and the faith to allow and surrender in such a big way to allow a change from how we have always done things requires the support of someone with another perspective, willing to sit with you in non-judgment to help you find your way to your own non-judgement and answers.
We are not meant to do this work alone. As humans, we need the unconditional love and support of another in order to find our own love and acceptance for ourselves. In that place, connected to your own inner knowing and higher self ~ your Sacred Nature, and God, is where your freedom lies to let go of fears, lean into all of your emotions and step into your best self for a joyful and prosperous future.
Einstein said, “the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.” And yet we keep doing the same thing because familiar is a lot less threatening than different.
I’d love to help you find your way to another way. To the life you dream of… or, better yet, may never have dreamed possible.
Just say yes to YOU, and to the infinite possibilities.
