So blessed! ”I’ve known Savannah for over 14 years. She guided me back from postpartum depression after the birth of my daughter many years ago and recently I have sought life coaching from her. Empathetic, kind and intelligent – I feel “heard” and understood for the first time in years. Her metaphors, humor and guidance have lifted me from a place of old, toxic patterns. She is, without question, the most emotionally gifted and empathetic human I have been fortunate enough to have in my life.”
Wise Intuitive Experience With Practical Solutions! “Working with Savannah has been a rich and wonderful experience. She immediately grasps what is important and hones in on it, even things I might have written off or not paid attention to. Her experience and resources helped me navigate a particularly challenging situation quickly and easily, saving me a lot of time and stress. My view of what is possible has expanded to include parts of myself and my life that I had forgotten about or given up on, and now I have a plan for how to get there.”
Savannah is my champion! “Savannah is supportive in such an intuitive, nurturing and non-invasive way. Her consistent ways of checking in and sharing insight helps me to feel grounded and supported in trying out new ways of integrating with the world around me. I feel heard and seen and understood. I am thankful for her way of holding me accountable to living my authentic life.”
Best of both worlds!”Savannah is great! And so is her unique, custom tailored services in exploring new career avenues and exploring healing through her awesome body work. Highly recommended!!”
Consistently transformative sessions! ”I first saw Savannah 3 years ago for about 5 months. I was a new mom and unhappy with my career decisions. Seeing her really helped to calm and ground me, and also to trust my own intuition about my next steps. I came back to see her recently and have found the same consistently transformative feedback and guidance. Seeing Savannah, I believe in the power of coaching to help me live the way I want to live my life. Every time, I feel more centered and confident about where I am going.”
You should really call Savannah today…”Savannah is simply the best. She listens with compassion, humor and intelligence, and helps you come to your own conclusions. She has a real gift for cutting through the confusion and extraneous information. You leave a session with incredible clarity and energy for moving forward. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”

It has been my privilege over the last six years to partner with remarkable women (and sometimes men and couples) in realizing more joy and fulfillment in their lives!

To begin 2012, I have a simple question for you: Who do you want to be this year? You, like everyone else I have met through my life coaching practice, have many different selves inside. You might have a worried self that tends to agonize about money and a jaded self that feels skeptical about [...]
I was so inspired by the project that Julien Leitner, 13 years old, began in an effort to have a positive impact on the world. This dedicated and precocious teenager has a goal to raise 2 million dollars in small 2 dollar donations for charities that help other children around the world. His foundation, The Archimedes Alliance, [...]
One of the (many) reasons that life coaching works is the focus on what is already going well. When clients are ready to make important changes in their lives, I often turn their attention to what is already working for them. In other words, gratitude. It can be easy to focus on problems. The big brick wall [...]
The 2010 Portland Mama Makeover is coming to an end this week. It has been an amazing experience to work with Andrea Moore, this year's winner. I had the honor of being her personal life coach for this healing journey; we cried, laughed and dreamed together over the two months. After weekly sessions of Pilates, [...]

How many times have you wanted to change something in yourself or in your life but were overwhelmed at even the thought of such a big undertaking? Have you ever jumped right into change, only to fizzle out or discover it wasn't even what you wanted? Sustainable change often comes from tiny, purposeful steps in a positive [...]
Often clients come to me with the goal of being more present in their lives. They have a sense of precious moments passing them by, their relationships could use more loving attention, and their bodies are begging them to slow down and be more mindful. And yet they are surprised at how hard it is to practice [...]
I see it every week: A woman comes into my office with a vague sense of discontent. Her life is going fairly well but something is... missing. She considers changing careers, worries about the longevity of her intimate relationship and is struggling to take better care of herself. She often feels "stuck," but is not sure why. [...]
As a client was leaving my office last week, she turned to me and said: "Savannah, you are a brain organizer." I looked puzzled for a minute and then laughed when she said, "My thoughts are so clear right now!" As a Life Coach for women, a big part of my job is supporting clients in uncovering [...]
I am reading a very thought-provoking book right now. Flux: Women on Sex, Work, Love, Kids, and Life in a Half-Changed World by Peggy Orenstein is based on 200 interviews with women between the ages of 20 and 45 about the choices that they are making in a world only half changed by feminism. While these women [...]
We all have times in our lives when we get stuck in a "thinking" rut. We have trouble making decisions or tend to answer "yes" and "no" out of habit rather than really following our intuition. Often, when we are feeling stuck, we might not even know how to access our intuition. The very first step to [...]
As the mama of a toddler and a teenager, I have experienced the challenges and joys of parenting at "difficult" ages. Yes, toddlers are expressive little beings and teens are interested in exploring independence, but with respect and communication, you can maintain a deep connection. My article in the Tranquil Parent this week is an interview with [...]
If you said "Yes!" then I have some good news for you. You do have more time! You just need to know where to find it. You see, we each have 24 hours in every day. I know, you have a lot of demands on your time. As busy women, we all do! My article on Mamapreneurs [...]
