Your Passion and Purpose Coach

I am excited to walk along this path with you as we explore what lights you up and help you to move past any obstacles that you may perceive to be in your way. I am a proud mother of three amazing individuals, a devoted grandmother to six delightful grandchildren, and a loving wife. My journey has been one of deep transformation, shaped by both my personal experiences and my lifelong commitment to healing and empowerment.

I am a lover of all things nature and enjoy just being in the outdoors, whether it be hiking, biking, gardening, camping or spending quiet time enjoying the cascading waterfalls on our Vermont property. My other interests include nature photography, reading, music and my beloved pets.

With a background as a retired pediatric nurse, I am currently a Certified Health and Wellness Coach, a Certified End-of-Life Doula, a women’s retreat leader, and a sound healer, I have dedicated my life to guiding others through their own paths of healing and self-discovery.

 As an empath, my work is deeply personal. My own experiences with loss—growing up quickly due to an alcoholic stepfather, the grief of miscarriage, and the passing of many loved ones, have profoundly shaped me. For years, I was a people pleaser, navigating life through the lens of what was expected rather than what truly fulfilled me. But through these challenges, I found strength, resilience, and the power of transformation.

Now, I help women do the same. I am a catalyst for transformation, creating sacred spaces where women can heal, reflect, and reconnect with their inner wisdom. Through my retreats and guidance, I empower women to move beyond their pain, embrace their purpose, and step fully into their power.

I believe that every woman has an inner light waiting to be reignited. If you're ready to embark on your journey of self-discovery, healing, and empowerment, I invite you to take this step with me.

A bit about my back story: After moving to our beautiful property in Vermont in the fall of 2021, in which the synchronicities still continue to amaze me. Glen and I had dreamed of moving to Vermont for over 30 years. Our idyllic property wasn’t even on the market when we first laid eyes on it in July of 2021. My cousin happened to be with us that day as we drove by this quaint little log cabin in the woods and I remarked at how cute it was. She thought the owner was interested in selling as he was renting it out at the time. She got me his contact number and I called him that week. Four months later, on November 5, 2021 we signed the papers to own it!! I knew from the moment we stepped onto the property and saw the brook with cascading waterfalls, that it was meant to be!! Coincidentally it is in the very town where my maternal grandparents were born and raised, a town that I had fallen in love with as a child when Nanny and Grandpa built a seasonal cabin on another mountain on the other side of town. It was there, on “God’s Little Acre”, so dubbed by Nanny, that I developed my love of nature. The smell of ferns, to this day, brings me back to that cabin, my safe place.

The magic and wonderment of Vermont is not lost on me and from the time we moved, I have felt that this is a place to be shared. For others to come together and reap the therapeutic rewards that the surrounding beauty and nature has to offer.

With Love and Light, Carla
