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!!”
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.”
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.”
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.”
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.”
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.”
What a privilege it is to have an opportunity to be here with the Nuture Life Community! Because I’ve known Savannah for a couple of years now, I have a real understanding of what a lovely group of people are drawn to her wonderful energy. I certainly was when I approached her for coaching back in 2020. [...]
When I get a new life or career coaching client who's primary goal is time management, a big red flag immediately begins to wave for me. You see, I sit with people all day who are struggling with the pace and demands of modern life and I've begin to doubt that this is a personal issue that [...]
If you are a woman who has a hard time saying no, you often feel overcommitted or overwhelmed and have lost track of your own needs, please read this blog post! If you are so blessed to have none of those issues, please skip the blog post but leave your advice in the comments! Recently one of my life coaching clients started [...]
Last month as the school year was winding down, my nine-year-old son made a clear and urgent request: "Not too much summer camp." He was compelling in his argument for more time to just relax, play in the neighborhood, have no plans. "Going to camp is like going to school...they make you do things on a plan...you [...]
In life and career coaching, we have an important tool that I will simply call Consciousness. The more aware and clear we are about the perceptions, patterns, personal choices, values and belief systems that are impacting a client's life, the more we can create lasting change. I graduated from one of the top coaching schools, IPEC, over [...]
This week is a good time to remember the scientifically proven benefits of gratitude! One of the reasons clients come to life coaching is their desire to focus on what is already working well, to build on their resources and strengths and to shift into a more creative mindset.

A have a life/career coaching client who is going through a big transition: planning to leave her corporate job and pursue more mission based work in alignment with who she is and how she wants to be spending her time. She has done it all right. Clarified her values, mapped out her priorities, gathered support from family [...]
Have you heard the story of the two monks and the heavy load? It is Zen tale passed down for centuries in Buddhist teachings. One day two traveling monks reached a town and saw a young woman waiting to step out of her sedan chair. There were deep, muddy puddles and she couldn’t step across without getting [...]
This week in a life coaching client consultation, I was asked if I believe in affirmations and positivity. I heard myself say, "I believe in truth." It seems that affirmations and positivity should be the backbone of coaching work and was certainly part of my initial training. But it never felt deep enough. It never felt right. [...]
Since I could hold a pencil, I have always known that I was a writer. I filled up my Mead notebooks with stories about adventure, magic and self-discovery (including sketches but I am no visual artist). My little girl self knew about creativity and the power of story and she naturally expressed herself. When I got into [...]
Many clients come to life coaching hoping to break a painful, restrictive cycle in their lives. The context is varied, from relationships to career to personal habits, but the problem is often the same. They are stuck on a repeat cycle that says something like: "I always attract people into my life who are unavailable...I can't ever [...]
I have a favorite exercise from the wise Martha Beck that I like to use with clients to help them gain more clarity around decision making. Martha calls it the "Shackles On, Shackles Off" exercise. Here is my personal adaption: 1. Bring a memory to mind of a person, experience or place that makes you feel relaxed [...]
By Zohar Manor-Abel, shared via Flickr To begin 2014, I have a simple question for you: Who do you want to be this year? You, like me and everyone else I have met so far, have many different selves inside. It is almost like we have an inner choir of voices, often singing in different keys. You [...]
In my experience with my coaching clients, myself and other humans, I have discovered that the misalignment between WORD (what I say I want) and ACTION (what I do about it) comes from one of the following issues: I don’t really want what I SAY I want. Instead, I am operating on an assumption about what I [...]
I am proud to announce that I have a new office space in the thriving Montavilla Business District in Portland, Oregon. It was a very quick move as Jyoti Family Wellness Center (my previous location) was asked to leave with only a couple of months notice so the landlord can remodel. It was hard to leave my [...]
