So happy you’re here!
Hi! I’m Christy.
I’m a coach, writer, and podcaster who loves helping midlife women rediscover their voice and tap into their creativity to reach their dreams and goals.
I love supporting women.
Before I started my podcast, I hired a communications coach. I did not like the sound of my voice and wanted to be more confident about putting myself “out there.” After one session, I was hooked. I loved the process so much that after a year of being on the air, I quit my job and went back to school to get my Master’s in Strategic Communication from American University so I could help creative, passionate, and driven women like you.
I am multipassionate.
That basically means I have a wide range of interests and experience and get really excited about learning all kinds of things. I bring rich knowledge of corporations, nonprofits, higher education, and small businesses to my coaching. My through-line has always been communications - it’s essential to any work, really. I particularly love learning about wellness practices, and recently completed my certification in Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) to help inform my practice.
I let my curiosity drive me.
Thank goodness the internet wasn’t around when I was a kid (seriously!) because I’m an information junkie. I love to research and share tips and information. Lately, my interests lie in the intersection of personal expression, compassion, and creativity. During the pandemic I learned about Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and how to apply that curiosity toward myself and my relationships. It’s been transformational, truly.
I spend my free time writing (and reading!).
In first grade I won first place in a country-wide book competition, and got hooked on writing. The spark died, however, after some incidents with teachers, and I lost faith in myself. After some fits and starts, I am at it again - I’ve finished my first historical novel, which is based on a true event and centered on the intricacies of women’s relationships. I’m also knee-deep on a non-fiction proposal I’ve been researching for years (remember, multipassionate!).
I am devoted to amplifying women’s voices.
My first podcast, Forties Stories, shares the experiences of women in their forties. I live in Washington, D.C. with my family, but I work with women across the globe (yay for technology!). Let me know how I can help you lean into your voice - the world needs it!
