"Each of us has that right, that possibility, to invent ourselves daily. If a person does not invent herself, she will be invented. So, to be bodacious enough to invent ourselves is wise."

-Maya Angelou

Coaching Services

  • Training is more than miles, pace, and workouts— it’s a process of building resilience, confidence, and trust in your body .

    This coaching is for runners who want training that fits their real life, supports long-term progress, and helps them feel strong in the sport they love. Coaching that starts where you are versus where you wish you were. Whether you're training for your first race, building back after time away, or pushing toward longer distances, we’ll work together to create a sustainable rhythm that supports performance, joy, and quality of life.

    Strength training is a core part of the approach because it’s essential for endurance, durability, and staying healthy over time.

  • Coaching that is strength-based personal training for people who want to build strength, muscle, and resilience in daily life — for anyone who wants to get stronger, whatever the starting point. The coaching is health-first, resilience-focused, and fully personalized. Includes form and technique feedback, and simple fueling guidance to support your goals.

  • Health coaching for athletes returning to sport after injury, illness, or time away — and for athletes who are currently training and looking to strengthen their health resilience and work through challenges that affect performance, recovery, and overall well-being, including under-recovery, burnout, recurring injury or illness cycles, and the menopause transition.
