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!!”
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.”
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.”
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.”
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.”
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, [...]
I had the privilege of being interviewed by fellow Life Coach Amy Pearson this week! Please listen to this short interview on self-nurture! I know that you will be inspired by the idea of making self-care more simple and reasonable in your life! Also, I have a new coaching column in Portland Woman Magazine! "Get a life [...]
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, [...]
Last week I had the pleasure of being interviewed on Single and Unplugged, an internet radio show dedicated to supporting and inspiring single parents. My topic was self nurture: how to tend to yourself when time and money are often limited. It was a great show and I think the information and insights are relevant to any [...]
Often, coaching clients come to me wanting to make changes in their lives but feel either overwhelmed or paralyzed. They have a sense of wanting to move towards something that feels positive, such as a new career, better communication in their relationships, an exciting new project, more fitness and self-care, etc., yet they don’t understand why they [...]
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 [...]
My last post on the obstacles to being present generated several questions from my regular readers about what they can do to begin to practice being more mindful. It can be helpful to first remember a time when you had the experience of being present. We all have had experiences that made us very present and conscious: [...]
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 [...]
I am a blogger for the Mamapreneurs.com site and my recent topic is TIME! As busy women, we all wish we had more time. And the truth is, you do! You just need to know where to find it... Most busy women lose time in the "have-to" activities. We all have them! Things we do because we [...]
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 [...]
As a personal coach for women, I notice a common theme for working mamas is guilt. Most of the mamas I talk to experience guilt at one time or another. Either they feel like that are failing their own standards as moms or they feel like they can't keep up with the demands of life and business. [...]
Today the little monkey and I ate an entire watermelon, met friends at the park to play, took the styder balance bike around the neighborhood and enjoyed a long snugly nap together. I always look forward to Fridays! It is the one week day that I don't work so I make it my day to play with [...]
Do you have a busy mind? Do you feel more comfortable being productive, "getting things done" and being in motion? Do you tend to over-think or make assumptions? If so, you are a lot like me! I have always struggled with the delicate balance between doing and being. Because I write a blog about mindfulness in mothering, [...]
