transitions and terrain
Something in you already knows the territory has changed. The old map doesn't quite match what you're standing on. That's usually when people find their way here.
Transitions and Terrain is a coaching and death care practice. I work alongside people moving through life's passages: careers that no longer fit, identities that are shifting, leadership roles asking something new, and the particular weight of dying and grief. These are the moments that ask us to slow down, read the landscape honestly, and find our footing for what comes next.
Coaching and end-of-life work both give us space to explore these crossings with curiosity and intention. Together, we’ll navigate the messy middle where uncertainty, possibility, and growth intersect so you can make choices that feel aligned with your values and true to who you are. Let's explore the terrain that is authentic, spacious, and fully yours.
my background
For more than twenty years, I led technology teams at Etsy, Spotify, Universal Music Group, and EMI. What drew me to that work was never the technology. It was people, and the question of what it means to show up for them in complexity. I've been in rooms where a lot was at stake, and I've learned, repeatedly, that how we move through uncertainty matters as much as what we decide.
I carried all of that with me when I left. I'm a certified Co-Active coach, a trained death doula, a hospice volunteer, and a Reiki practitioner. I'm also an artist, and queer, and someone who has lost family and friends. That grief lives in this work. I'm not standing outside life's passages as a neutral observer. I'm someone who has been in them, and keeps being in them.
The thread running through everything I do: transformation happens by composting what's already there. The past isn't something to discard, it's material. What has already happened in you is what makes the next thing possible.
If you are navigating a transition, know that you don't have to do so alone.
coaching fees and logistics
Coaching at transitions and terrain is built on the Co-Active framework, which holds both who you're being and what you're doing... because neither works without the other.
People come to coaching at many kinds of moments: a career that's reached its edge, a leadership role asking something different, a life that feels out of alignment with who you're becoming. Sometimes the work is about what's next. More often, it's about slowing down enough to understand what's actually happening.
Sessions are 60 minutes, roughly twice monthly. We begin with a 90-minute discovery session to design the work together. All active packages include text and email support between sessions.
Coaching is available on a sliding scale, and barter is welcome.
