There’s a moment in the story of Donald Clifton, the father of Strengths Psychology, that still gives me chills. After a long day as a psychologist working with patients dealing with trauma and discouragement, Clifton pulled over at a cemetery on his drive home. As he walked among the gravestones, he was struck by one haunting thought:
“I wonder if these people ever knew what was right with them—or did they spend their whole lives focused on what was wrong?”
That question didn’t just shift his thinking—it shaped his life’s work. He went on to develop the CliftonStrengths Assessment (originally known as StrengthsFinder), a tool that’s now used by millions of people and organizations worldwide to tap into their natural talents instead of trying to “fix” their weaknesses.
And if you’re like many of the women I coach—high-achieving, hard-working, yet often second-guessing your path—you might be wondering the same thing:
What if the problem isn’t you?
What if you’ve just been looking in the wrong place?
The Truth About Strengths (That Most People Overlook)
Let’s get something straight: Your strengths aren’t just personality traits.
They’re your most powerful assets—your internal compass, decision-making filter, and success engine.
The CliftonStrengths Assessment reveals your Top 5 (or full 34) talent themes—essentially, your unique pattern of thinking, feeling, and behaving. And here’s the wild part:
The odds of someone having the same Top 5 strengths in the same order as you?
1 in 33 million.
That means you’re not just “different”—you’re uniquely equipped to solve problems, lead, and create impact in a way no one else can.
But here’s the catch: You can’t activate what you don’t understand.
That’s where expert coaching comes in.
Why Most People Struggle With Confidence (Even High-Achievers)
In my work as a certified strengths coach, I meet incredible women—professionals, entrepreneurs, and leaders—who’ve ticked all the right boxes in life yet feel unfulfilled, stuck, or plagued by imposter syndrome.
Sound familiar?
They don’t lack potential.
They lack clarity about who they are at their best—and a clear path to align their life and work with that version of themselves.
We weren’t taught to explore our natural talents. We were taught to fit in, fix our flaws, and hustle harder. But real transformation doesn’t happen through exhaustion. It happens through alignment.
My Method: Discover, Align, Empower
When you work with me, we don’t start with what’s broken.
We start with what’s brilliant.
Here’s how:
1. Discover Your Strengths
You’ll take the CliftonStrengths 34 Assessment and uncover your unique combination of talent themes.
2. Align with Your Authentic Self
Through personalized coaching, we map out how to apply your strengths to overcome challenges, lead with confidence, and make decisions that feel aligned—not forced.
3. Empower Lasting Change
You’ll learn to work with your natural wiring, not against it. Whether it’s making a career pivot, launching a business, or simply wanting more from life, I help you turn insight into action.
From Self-Doubt to Self-Trust
Clifton once said:
“Your weaknesses will never develop while your strengths will develop infinitely.”
I see this truth play out every day. When women finally understand what they’re naturally good at, something powerful happens—they stop shrinking, stop striving, and start showing up as the version of themselves they’ve always sensed was in there.
So if you’re tired of second-guessing yourself, if you’re done chasing one-size-fits-all solutions, and if you’re ready to build a life that feels true to who you are…
