I Give People Permission to Change their Life
….
Checked all of life’s boxes, but still feeling bleh?
Afraid to quit your secure corporate job?
Feel like you did everything right, but don’t FEEL right?
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
HEAR THIS: You’re not crazy, ungrateful, or broken. You’re just ready.
You have permission to want MORE.
I help 40-somethings navigate the in-between, guiding them through BIG transitions with guts, grace, and a little magic, giving them permission to.
Do hard things…
Claim and come home to themrselves…
Color outside the lines…
Confront their limiting fears….
Let go of form….
Go from people-pleasing to Permission Please!…
Get out their head, and into their body…
Trust themselves…
Shed the shoulds….
Go their own way….
And Find FREEDOM.
And now you’re not alone.
I’m with you on this journey!
Let’s Work Together….

Result: Permission to want what you want. In your relationship, in your business, in your life.
❤️ Permission Coaching
Permission to Quit Your Job
From existential crisis to exit interview, we’ll make this journey together with embodiment, agency, goodbye scripts and beautiful reinvention
Result: Shaking off the shoulds, expanding your view and changing your life.
I’m Andrea
Braveheart Coach. Permission Giver. Podcaster. Author. Speaker. Dancer
Making a series of weird, yet wise choices across my life--Peace Corps at 30, polyamory at 40, moving to Costa Rica at 46, (and many more)--while sometimes a total pain-in-the-ass, have helped me build a relationship with myself.
Every time, I’ve begun by giving myself permission to go my own way. With marriage, parenthood career and my life.
The result is FREEDOM.
What is Permission anyway?
You’re in the in-between—the checklist is done, the life looks “fine,” but something’s off. You feel the tug, the ache, the quiet scream: This isn’t it.
What is calling to you? What do you need to break out of your cage and do?
It might be……
❤️ Having your baby at a birthing center instead of a hospital….
❤️ Wearing cowboy boots even though you don’t ride horses….
❤️ Quitting the HR director job to get a PhD in Russian literature…
❤️ Not working on the weekends even though you always have…
❤️ Choosing not to have a child in a family where everyone else does….
❤️ Celebrating Christmas at home instead of seeing your parents…
❤️ Sending your child to a school without computers….
❤️ Saying NO to the Women & Wine event you used to love..
❤️ Being a working mom instead of a SAHM….
❤️ Moving to Lisbon for a year….
❤️ Taking ice skating lessons at age 40…

“When I met Andrea, I was feeling completely trapped. I felt like I’d done all the right things but wasn’t feeling the right way, and was afraid to deviate from that path. Admitting what I actually wanted was alarmingly difficult! Andrea helped me stay the course and I’m so grateful.”
