Welcome

You are in the right place for highly skilled, wholehearted coaching.

“An incredibly valuable experience.”

Clarify vision.

Increase resilience.

Amplify impact.

After coaching hundreds of people, one thing I know for sure is that you have tremendous inner resources that can inspire you forward. I also know for sure that what gets in the way (including limiting beliefs and limiting behaviors) can be changed, allowing for more energy, creativity and ease.

My clients tend to be purpose-driven

  • Leaders and Executives
  • Climate and Sustainability Leaders
  • Creative Professionals
  • Innovators, Changemakers and Visionaries
  • Women in Transition

And, I’ve worked with people with many many different types of jobs, concerns and flavors of brilliance. I’d love to hear what has you interested in coaching at this time.

When we coach together you will:

  • Expand your thinking, your vision, your view of yourself and your possibilities.
  • Engage your heart and body to become a more resilient and resourced person and leader at work and in life.
  • Grow beyond old limits, habits and fears and tap into your passion, strengths and inner resources.
  • Get the results you’re looking for.

Hi, I’m Sharon

I’ve been a certified professional coach since 2006 and am still inpsired by the work and it’s impact.  My passion thankfully translates to powerful results and satisfied clients. See sample testimonials below and on the coaching and mentoring pages.

In addition to coaching, I mentor other coaches, teach for the UW-Madison Certified Professional Coach Program and am on faculty at Presence-Based Coaching & Leadership Development  in Asheville, NC.

Blending science and art, true coaching is tremendously helpful and deeply human in the best of ways.

Client Testimonials

Coaching with Sharon was INCREDIBLY helpful

in helping me regain the confidence I needed to make a career change that I’m very excited about and to reconnect to my inner core in ways that will allow me to be a more healthy me—physically, emotionally, spiritually.

The most tangible benefits are starting a new job but other benefits which are equally as important are engaging more meaningfully in relation to others and great self-care practices being reawakened.

Overall, it was EXCELLENT! I’M EXTREMELY GRATEFUL FOR THE EXPERIENCE!

 -Joy S.  

 

Sharon is an exceptional coach.

Her ability to help me deepen my understanding of challenges I’m facing and quickly helping me see new perspectives are outstanding. I highly recommend her as a coach.

 -Katrin Windsor, Head of Customer Support at Coactive Training Institute (CTI)    

 

Coaching with Sharon affected my life more

deeply than I had thought possible—and in a very positive way. I am now 90% more comfortable with being assertive and speaking up. Practicing being present, responding vs. reacting, gaining confidence, tapping into my inner resources—all of it has been so helpful. Using tools that were passed on, I am now capable of changing habits that may limit me for whatever reason. I am creating life in new ways.

 -Tammy P.   

 

Working with Sharon has been the greatest investment in myself and in my business.

Sharon has helped me ask the essential questions about my career and personal life that have guided me through a swell of transitions in my life—a transition to motherhood, a physical move to a new city, starting a business,
and continually evolving that business with intentionality and exploration.

 -Roshelle Ritzenthaler, Design Strategist

 

Coaching with Sharon has had a positive effect both personally and professionally for me.

I am more reflective and less reactive, have improved communication with others, am kinder to myself and I experience more gratitude and joy.

 -CEO, statewide non-profit  

 

Ways to work with me

Coaching for Individuals

I work with individuals and I also work with organizations who are seeking coaching for their leaders and executives. Former clients have called the coaching “incredibly helpful,” “my best investment in myself and my work,” and “life changing.”  Also see the single-session JumpStart option by clicking below. 

Mentoring for Coaches

Are you seeking mentoring to the next level and toward your re/certification with ICF? I delight in getting into the nitty-gritty with you to highlight your strengths and work with growth areas and habits that get in your way of mastery. Check out my packages and upcoming groups.

 Workshops on the Coach Approach

I find that people who take my “coach approach” workshops find gems that enhance their relationships in and out of work. The coach approach is deeply relational, practical and freeing.

I also offer popular Climate Circles that include training in the Coach Approach and help people move from overwhelm to engaged for the climate.  Next single session is free in Madison.  Contact me for information.

Embodied Leadership for Life & Work

Free Somatic Grounding & Centering Practice

This practice helps you be more resourced so that you can say and do what’s meaningful in moments that matter.  Once learned, it can be used as a short meditation or a 2-second shift.

I challenge you to do it 5 times a day for 3 weeks and notice what’s different!

Get in Touch

I’d love to hear from you. Contact me for a complimentary Exploratory Session. We’ll have about 30 minutes to explore what interests you in coaching at this time. You’ll get a sense of me and my style and I’ll get a sense of whether or not what I offer will serve you. You’ll leave with the information you need and quite possibly a helpful new insight or next step.
