Life Coach

I retired from the legal field in 2019.  In October of 2020, I became an active member of Live Well & Fully, a private, social media platform devoted to guiding women who are eager to make empowering changes in their lives.

I became employed with this group in 2021 as a Facebook Moderator and I became a Life Coach in 2023.  As a Life Coach, I facilitate Zoom calls with women of all backgrounds who are enrolled in a number of programs, with the goal of personal growth.
