Expand Coaching Program
Expand into a Massively Purposeful Life
What’s calling out to you and you’re afraid to answer?
Not the surface level goal or dream. The deeply held desire that has been smoldering, percolating and begging for your attention.
You know the one – the one that causes you to catch your breath when you consider breathing life into it.
You feel the immediate tingle of both excitement and more-than-a-dash of fear.
That one.
Truth be told, that desire is your soul calling and you haven’t quite had the courage to answer. You know that when you finally pick it up, you will not be able to put it back down.
You are here to serve that desire, give it voice, bring it into form and savor its blossoming. In the process, YOU become the person you were meant to be and are ready to become.
Let me ask you …
Can you no longer ignore the tug of your soul calling you to use your unique skills, gifts and talents to make a bigger difference?
Are you craving more meaning, less stress and struggle, and the opportunity to grow into the very best version of yourself?
Are you staring down a personal or professional challenge that requires you to face hard truths, find real solutions and navigate big changes? (This is another soul nudge…)
Have you ALWAYS wanted to start a business and everyone tells you it’s terrible timing and you’re better off playing it safe and keep you day job? (Always listen to your soul over naysayers…)
Are you ready to balance your compassion, thoughtfulness and sensitive nature with your strength, courage and confidence to create an authentic life from your true source of power?
This is your time.
It’s time to own who you are, how you are and what you truly desire in your life.
It’s time to own your Superpowers and your unique skills, gifts and talents!
It’s time to celebrate your messiness, your tough life lessons, your vulnerable moments, your deepest struggles – they were all necessary to help you rise into your innate greatness.
It’s time you stop living your life by someone else’s rules and giving your power away to what anyone else thinks – this is your ride, your rules, your standards. Period.
It’s time to sync up your mindset with your Superpowers to achieve epic results!
It’s time to stop working so damn hard under so much stress and sacrifice.
It’s time to ignore the outside world and tune into our own inner wisdom.
This is a 6-month coaching experience to massively Expand into your soul-inspired life.
You will learn how to:
Envision what you truly Desire in life – the soul goal rumbling for attention
Exude Worthiness & Confidence (while feeling and believing it at your core!)
Embody & Embrace new behaviors, thoughts, habits and success traits
Expect the BEST instead of focusing on worry, doubt, anxiety and stress
Expand what you believe is possible by shifting into a new mindset paradigm
Eliminate negative, disempowering beliefs while building better beliefs
Engage in inspired actions to achieve your soul goals (no more grinding & working hard!)
Enjoy Epic results
Throughout the process, you’ll develop an unshakeable belief in who you are and what you can achieve.
The Expand Coaching Program is a 6-month program.
During that time, you will go on an immersive journey that includes:
◊ A comprehensive Visionary Life Assessment to deep dive into your current life and explore your authentic path, vision and soul goals
◊ 1 VIP Retreat Session: You kick off your journey with a 4 hour VIP Retreat Session.

A very special VIP Half Day Retreat kicks off the Expand Coaching Program.
The VIP Half Day Retreat is 4 hours of immersive, experiential and sacred time together. This is your first opportunity to begin to connect with yourself at a deeper level and tap into your inner wisdom – the wisdom that will connect you to your authentic path and soul desire.
You will receive a unique Sacred Empowerment Box which is specially curated for your journey. The box varies in content and may include books, journals, pens, candles, inspiring decks, aromatherapy, art, jewelry, clothing, pendants, gemstones and one-of-a-kind specialty items to enhance your journey and delight your senses.
We will deep dive into your current life and cut through the noise to clarify and define your heart-centered vision. You will feel both invigorated and nourished by the activities of the session.
You’ll walk away with a deeper level of clarity around who you are, what is truly important to you, your soul desire, your vision of life and your priorities that will guide the six month journey.
The session will be held by Zoom or in person – details will be discussed during the Discovery Session.
The Coaching Process
After the decadent VIP day, we continue the coaching process with Zoom sessions twice a month to focus on your desire and the steps to achieve it.
One of the ultimate goals of this program: You become the driver of your life. You will learn how to confidently go after what you desire knowing you deserve it and can achieve it.
As you step more fully into your life, you will face challenges and obstacles and more than a few will land on your path during our time together. The good news: challenges are the perfect training ground to learn and grow. Rest assured, you will be prepared with an empowered mindset, new skills, resources and tools to cut through any resistance and skillfully handle any obstacle.
In fact, you learn to view challenges as opportunities to expand your growth and vision in new and unexpected ways. It becomes an adventure propelling your forward rather than a setback. And through it all, you will receive expert guidance to navigate the twists and turns.
During our time together, your confidence will soar. Armed with this clarity and confidence, you create a life that fuels your purpose, ignites your passion, feeds your soul and unleashes your vision.
I’ve worked with Joan for 6 months and it has been life changing. I’m not exaggerating.
I am an entrepreneur, have owned a business for 23 years, and I was at a crossroads in my life after going through some tough years personally and professionally.
Joan helped me find my way back to myself to identify my true goals in such an authentic way, I feel stronger and more confident than I have in in a long time. She has an intuitive way of leading you through your own labyrinth of goals, aspirations, thoughts and emotions to the right place for you. I highly recommend her as a coach. Plus her enthusiasm is contagious in the best possible way.

Is the Expand Coaching Program for you? Are you…
Taking on a signficant life change
Redesigning your life or business to align with your new wholehearted, soulful vision
Transitioning to a new career
Starting a new business
Transitioning out of a career & finding a new life direction
Up-leveling your life to make meaningful and purposeful change
I first worked with Joan in 2011 when she served as corporate counsel to my business. It was in her role as my life coach beginning in 2019 that impacted my personal and professional life in meaningful and profound ways.
At the time, I was facing soul-crushing litigation in which I felt betrayed & hopeless. I was struggling in my role as the owner and leader in my firm and with the relationship with my wife. I was floundering & paralyzed into inaction.
First & perhaps most importantly to me, Joan listened without judgment until she understood my issues. Then she took several different coaching approaches to teach me the management & life skills I needed.
The life skills & confidence Joan helped me develop will stick with me forever. Big problems & mean people are manageable & no longer keep me from my goals.
I’m not the person I was in 2019, and for that Joan will always have my loving gratitude.

Joan’s coaching programs will change your life!
After talking myself out of investing in myself several times, I decided to enroll in Joan’s coaching program.
We identified what I wanted to achieve, what I dreamed of for my life & how I wanted to show up in life. Joan’s love and support let me dream as big as I wanted. I could also ugly cry, be open and release my past struggles.
Bottom line: What I discovered was truly magical.
She helped me create an emotional “toolbox” that helps me confront difficult situations in ways I feel whole, confident, faithful and strong.
Two weeks after we finished coaching, one of my big dreams became reality and then another. When setbacks and stressful situations occur, I can handle them calmly and clearly.
I recommend Joan’s coaching programs with the highest praise. She WILL change your life!

I look to Joan when I feel the need for deeply practical, grounded advice that supports me in bringing my dreams into form.

Why work with Me?
I get results.
I have a proven track record. For 25 years, I’ve successfully coached hundreds of entrepreneurs to develop the mindset, create the structures, learn the skills and up-level their tools to design a life and business that exceeds their expectations.
Diverse Experience
I am a personal development coach, a business attorney, a serial entrepreneur, an artist, a student of life, a dream chaser (and catcher), a believer in big, hairy audacious goals and a legend maker.
Extensive Training
I’ve invested countless hours and hundreds of thousands of dollars in training and education over several decades to learn cutting edge processes and continually evolving resources. Each coaching program was thoughtfully designed to comprehensively package a lifetime of learning to help you create breakthrough results.
Supportive Environment
I create a safe, nourishing, judgment-free environment to give you full permission and safety to show up and be real (and messy). I provide compassionate yet no BS support that gives you permission to be honest, vulnerable and, did I mention, messy.
I know the pain, overwhelm and soul-crushing loss from navigating a divorce. The days when numbness consumes your body and the only thing you want to do is pull the covers over your head and hide. When you find yourself behind locked doors wracked in pain, unable to face the world and desperately wondering if you will ever feel joy again. (You will.)
I’ve dared to leave my safe, lucrative dream job to launch my own business and face the uncertainty, the unknown, the fear and crazy lifestyle of an entrepreneur. (After 25 years, I’ve never looked back.)
I’ve picked up and moved my life across the country, multiple times, to follow my inner guidance and live life by my adventurous standards pursuing my unique dreams. (I highly recommend following your unique path!)
I’ve massively transformed my business over the years to follow my purpose and passion. From
-
- putting myself through law school,
- to working at a law firm,
- to leading the legal department of a corporation,
- to setting up my own law firm,
- to becoming an artist,
- to becoming an intentional creativity teacher,
- to having an art studio on the Napa River,
- to leading retreats and experiences,
- to becoming a transformative personal development coach combining my wisdom with my skills, gifts & passions. (And I’m only just getting started!)
As a result of my life experiences, I’ve created powerful, results-driven coaching programs to help you create the life YOU love!
WARNING:
These coaching programs are not for everyone.
I want to be very clear who these coaching programs are specifically designed to serve.
These programs require commitment and dedicated time to yourself and your vision of life.
There is no flying by the seat of your pants or showing up unprepared.
This is a true investment in yourself and what you can create with your life.
You can’t create shortcuts for the most important process of your life.
THESE COACHING PROGRAMS ARE DESIGNED FOR WOMEN WHO:
♥ Are trying to navigate big change in their life or business.
♥ Want to stop doing what they think they HAVE to do and start doing what they LOVE to do.
♥ Need help creating their personal, purposeful vision.
♥ Are facing hard truths or feel stuck in life and have no idea how to deal with it.
♥ Want to change the negative inner dialogue that’s holding them back and create an empowered mindset to accelerate their growth.
♥ Want to learn new tools and resources to up-level their lives.
♥ Are already on the personal development path and have a degree of self-awareness with a committed desire to learn more.
♥ Are coachable and appreciate the lessons being taught even if they feel uncomfortable in the process.
♥ Want to invest in their personal development and understand the value of working with a coach.
♥ Value learning, knowledge and wisdom; those who want to make a difference in their lives, their community and the world.
♥ Are willing to take action through fear.
♥ Listen, participate, engage, practice and courageously bring their full selves to the game of life.
♥ Are authentic, vulnerable and honest.
THESE PROGRAMS ARE NOT for women who want a quick fix or buy a program with great intention but with no commitment.
They are also not for you if …
- You are not willing to be coached, receive direction or act on the guidance.
- You blow off assignments if they are inconvenient
- You are not 100% committed to being honest with yourself, taking a real look at your life (the good, the bad and the ugly) and taking radical responsibility for your life.
- You are not willing to invest in yourself or see the value of making yourself a priority to honor your vision, your purpose and the impact only you can make.
Have some questions?
How is coaching different from consulting or business advising?
The traditional consulting or business advising roles are designed to tell the client what to do based on a set of facts and desired goals. Coaching is defined by the International Coach Federation as:
“Professional Coaching is partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential. Coaches are trained to listen, to observe and to customize their approach to the individual client’s needs and relates to the client as the expert in his/her life and work.
The coach’s responsibility is to:
- Discover, clarify, and align with what the client wants to achieve;
- Encourage client self-discovery;
- Elicit client-generated solutions and strategies; and
- Hold the client responsible and accountable.
A coach seeks to elicit solutions and strategies from the client and believes that every client is creative, resourceful, and whole.”
What are the benefits of personal development coaching?

Why do successful people hire a Personal Development Coach?
Successful people recognize they need to bring people into their lives who have the skills they don’t yet have but want to develop. They value coaches, mentors and advisors who can help them get from where they are to where they want to go. They know they need a trained professional to help them determine the best direction, hold them accountable and to provide objective support and feedback. They also recognize that a coach can help them achieve their goals more quickly than doing it on their own.
Do you accept payment plans?
Yes. Plans are available to pay over the coaching term depending on the program you select. We can discuss the terms during the initial Discovery Call.
How long is each coaching call?
The initial coaching call is 2 hours during which time we comprehensively review a life assessment that you will complete in advance of the call. Each subsequent coaching call will be 60 minutes.
What is a Personal Development Coach?
The role of the personal development coach is to expertly guide clients to get clear on their goals, dreams, priorities and vision. A personal development coach helps people achieve defined goals, overcome obstacles, create an empowered mindset, overcome limiting beliefs, become self-aware and learn how to take radical responsibility for their lives.
Personal development coaches thrive on helping clients unleash their potential and teach them tools to go after what they want in life and achieve it.

Can’t I reach my dreams, goals and vision on my own? Why do I need a coach?
The reality is that you cannot create a new desired outcome by doing the same things you’ve always done – you have to learn to do things that you’ve never done to get results you’ve never (yet) obtained. If your current life does not support your desired vision of your life, or you haven’t yet figured out your vision, then change, and the willingness to get uncomfortable as you navigate it, are necessary components leading to success. This kind of change generally requires seasoned guidance to help you navigate the fear and discomfort of letting go of what is to embrace all that can be. A coach can remove the mystery and help you achieve your desired outcome.
Where does the coaching take place?
Coaching is provided over the phone or Zoom, which allows you to conveniently schedule and meet from the comfort of your home or office. I strongly recommend you take each call in a distraction free location where you can soulfully and solely focus on our conversation and get the most out of our time together.
