Introduction: Hello my friend!
Thanks for your curiosity in what I offer and in your own growth and healing.

**I'm new to Thumbtack. You can find more testimonials + info on my website and Instagram, as well as all sorts of free content, podcasts, and guided meditations to try on for size!
I'm a Self-Leadership Coach and Mindfulness Teacher here to serve purpose-driven Young Professionals who want to make a difference in the world by committing to their own evolution. Self-Leadership, in my eyes, is the toolset, mindset and ability to lead from within: to primarily source our motivation, choices and propensity to take action intrinsically, rather than coasting through life being yanked around by competing external influences.
I'm a certified life coach and finishing a two-year certification program as a mindfulness teacher, accredited by The Greater Good Science Center at UC Berkeley. I worked in health and wellness Summer camps for most of my career prior to launching my coaching business and have mentored + coached upwards of 1000 young adults (and adults of all ages) over the years. Client age is not important to me, but attitude absolutely is.
As a coach, I guide my clients in developing a deeply loving and empowered relationship with oneself - mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. Its through the development of your inner resources: a growth mindset, self-compassion, gratitude, purpose, courage, and integrity, that you'll be able to accomplish anything and everything that you set your heart and mind to.
While people step into coaching or therapy because of a goal that they want to accomplish, or because of some symptom they are tired of living with, key to any accomplishment or healing is self-responsibility and self-relationship. Whatever outcome or feeling you want to create in your life, or whatever pain you are ready to ditch, I'll guide you there in a way that reinforces your own personal power. As your coach, my mission is to love + support you unconditionally, challenge and guide you powerfully, reflect back your greatness, show you the tools to make the most of your life, and above all else teach you how to fish for yourself, and to do so in service of others.
We'll work together interdependently, not co-dependently.
Key to my coaching container is a commitment to integrate mindfulness practices into your life. Meditation as a tool is the single most effective resource we have and need in order to live happy, healthy and whole lives. Because awareness is power. And now more than ever, in an environment constantly competing to steal your attention, we need to regain autonomy over our own. The techniques I'll teach you will ensure this.
(Know that mindfulness is not one-size-fits-all but rather a swathe of tools and practices that will support each individual in ways unique to their wants and needs. Trust that I will meet you where you are at and help you find the right practices that'll work for you).
And its from this baseline of empowered choice, namely that we can make decisions and take action with clarity and integrity, that you'll be able to truly steer the ship of your life, unshaken by the many external forces and conditioned limiting beliefs that otherwise sway us from living our best lives.
In addition to mindfulness practice, other tools I commonly use include:
-Values + Strengths Assessment
-Wheel of Life Exercise + SMART Goals
-Self-Love Practices
-Compassion + Gratitude Practices
-Social Media Detox
-Breathing Exercises
-Journaling
-Extracurricular Learning Through Books + Podcasts
-My 5-Step Limiting Belief Shift Process
-Somatic Processing Practices
Some perks you'll get from working 1:1 with me:
-Custom guided meditations (recorded in-session for you to use at home)
-Clearly defined, self-chosen action steps for "homework"
-Access to my curated Spotify "Core Cultivations" playlists to help you connect with the energies of and develop a Growth Mindset, Gratitude, Self-Compassion, Authenticity, & Purpose
-Free access to my upcoming online Intro to Mindfulness + Meditation course this Summer (and/or to the recordings)
-A coach who is a real human and friend (with professional boundaries), rather than an unrelatable, closed book
Please know that coaching is one-hundred-percent a self-owned process. I like to say that 99% of the work happens in between sessions, where its your job to put to use the practices, insights, and the clearly-defined action steps we've cooked up together in our coaching session. If you approach our work together with this attitude, I guarantee you'll emerge more confident, more clear, more capable, more compassionate and more courageous that ever before. ANYTHING you want to accomplish, heal or feel in your life will be possible.
And it would be an honor and a joy to help guide you there.
Book a complimentary Curiosity Call with me (which I treat as an actual coaching call, rather than a quick sales call) and lets radically transform your life for the better.
With Love&Gratitude,
Coach Quiggy
