Work with me

Two ways to work with me

One is one-on-one coaching with me. The other is a private membership you work through on your own time. Both follow the same five stages.

Want to talk it through with someone? Choose Signature. Prefer to work through it on your own time? Choose Reserve.

Signature

One-on-one coaching with me

  • 60-minute private sessions on Zoom
  • Book them as you need them, or work with me on a monthly retainer
  • Retainer clients can text me between sessions. Retainer spots are limited.
  • Most sessions end with one thing for you to try before we talk again. I keep notes so I can follow up.
  • I retired from alcohol on April 16, 2025, after six years of preparing.

We talk about fit and fees on a complimentary 30-minute call.

Reserve

  • Each week, a short lesson, a short video with a transcript and one thing to try
  • After that, a letter from me every week
  • One private question a month, answered by me
  • No group and no community

The videos, the weekly letters and the answers to your questions come from me.
