Hi, I’m Olivia.

I’m an International Coaching Federation-certified life coach whose practice is devoted to helping people cultivate and trust their intuition through the magic of nature. I help people connect to the wisdom of the earth and our cosmos, and, in turn, the powerful wisdom we each hold inside ourselves.

I incorporate the latest neuroscience, ecological research, herbalism, generously shared indigenous teachings, and a hefty dose of magic.

Before I heeded my calling to become a coach, I spent 15+ years in mission-driven organizations, mostly in nonprofit communications. My art history degree from the University of Pennsylvania taught me to recognize beauty, find the meaningful stories underneath what I’m looking at, and be a rigorous researcher, thinker, and writer.

I currently live in the suburbs of Washington, D.C., with my adventure-loving family: my writer husband and two firecracker daughters who are, of course, named after plants.

Ready to go for it? You got this! And I got you. This world needs you, going after whatever it is that sparks your soul. Here’s to more of that.
