Leaf Studio

The logo for Leaf Studio was designed by Dan Baker of Dan Baker Design. Not only is he a dynamite graphic design artist but he was also one of my "Kindergarten Parents" whose child is now an adult. That is how long ago I taught Kindergarten....it was another one of the very favorite ways I found to serve and love.

Hello Beautiful!

When you know the nature of your being………………magic happens

Ontological Life Coaching focuses on the nature of being. With this knowledge you can achieve goals, overcome obstacles, become present and make transformative change in your life.

I am interested being your partner on this journey. Let’s explore with a complimentary Sample Coaching Session.

Hello and Happy Spring to you!

Earlier this year I began an new adventure I want to tell you about. I am involved in an Ontological Life Coach Training. What is this, you may be wondering? This is Life Coaching with an emphasis on the nature of being. I partner with clients who are yearning to achieve goals, overcome obstacles and make changes in their life. As coach, I can provide focus, direction, challenge, support, accountability, co-create plans and action steps.

The philosophical approaches of Yoga and Ontological Life Coaching are heart centered, empowering and forward moving. I find both are incredibly dynamic in similar ways. As I am expanding my professional offerings to include Life Coaching, I will of course continue teaching yoga in Leaf Studio and at the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance.

Offering Life Coaching is a very exciting act of service for me. You are either one of my yoga students, a friend or a professional colleague; you are in the network of people I know, love and trust. Perhaps you are interested in finding out more about Life Coaching? Perhaps you know another who may be interested? I am offering complimentary conversations to explore the possibilities in one’s life or business.

I ask that if you are interested in taking a Life Coaching adventure with me, contact me. And, if you have a friend, business associate or client that you think might benefit from this work, then refer them to me.

With gratitude and hugs,
Mem
