As a Life + Leadership Coach, I help ambitious women connect with their purpose.
When you get clear about who you are, what you want and why you’re here, you become incredibly powerful. By being who you truly are, you get what you truly want – an impactful career, a thriving business and fulfilling relationships. You take ownership in generating your life as you take up space, ask for what you want and, most importantly, love and accept yourself.
Coaching is not about adding or fixing. It’s about removing layers – layers of societal programming; demands and expectations of others; negative thoughts, doubts and limiting beliefs – and finding your true self underneath. I help you remove the layers until we find the real you. You were always there. You are enough. You are whole. And you are worthy of love, abundance and belonging.
Coaching is for you if you are:
Struggling to define your values, mission and purpose
Tolerating a miserable job while wanting to become the leader of your career
Paralyzed by uncertainty and the fear of failure
Lacking the confidence to ask for what you want (promotions, pay raises…)
Secretly wanting to grow your solopreneur business but don’t know where to begin
Hiding yourself, your talent and your voice
Questioning your life decisions
Keeping insufficient boundaries in your personal and professional life
Allowing imposter syndrome to hold you back
Swimming in shame and drama of what others might think
Struggling to balance work, life and family
Overwhelmed by life challenges (layoffs, divorce, loss)
The skills and tools you master today will continue to serve you in all areas of your life well beyond our work together.
Through our work together you will:
Generate an inspired vision of the life you want and a plan to achieve it
Give yourself permission to dream big and actually go after what you want
Choose an empowered narrative that serves your purpose and is aligned with who you want to become
Act with courage knowing confidence will follow
Recognize failure is merely information that helps you move forward
Develop the clarity you need in order to make decisions from a place of power and self-knowledge instead of fear and anxiety
Shine a light on shame and remove its power
Learn to trust yourself and your intuition
Break down overwhelm into manageable pieces
Set healthy boundaries in support of your wellbeing
Develop skills for effective communication
Stop self-abandoning and recognize the importance of taking up space and asking for what you want
Reconnect with the things you love
Hi. I’m April.
Coach, Artist, Designer, single mother, friend, Brooklynite, runner…
Like many people, I struggle with allowing myself to be seen, and instead resort to people-pleasing, perfectionism and procrastination – your basic hiding and playing small. This has held me back in my life and career. Doing the inner work through coaching and the external work of lived experience, I have learned that when I’m willing to look beyond my false stories and limiting beliefs and connect with my inherent unlimited nature (you have this too!), I show up differently. From a place of loving my true self, I see my greatness and can confidently move through the world with intention and commitment toward creating the life I truly desire.
Your uniqueness is your superpower.
I want to help you find your superpower.
My superpowers are empathy, curiosity and creativity. I’m fascinated with the world and how it works. I live in awe and wonder of the infinite systems all around us – and within us. As an artist, I’ve created an infinite system of form generation originating from a single source. This manifests as large, abstract paintings and sculptures.
As a coach, I love exploring the complexity of the human condition and human behavior by partnering with clients to help them find their simple solutions to complex problems. Humans are the ultimate infinite system. Coaching is a way for me to invite others to see their greatness – to see what’s really possible for them and to go after it!
I became a certified coach in 2019, upon graduation from an intensive, year-long, International Coaching Federation (ICF) accredited coach and leadership training program. Since beginning my private practice, I have coached many female creative entrepreneurs to grow their businesses with confidence in spite of uncertainty; supported BIPOC female tech startup founders to scale; co-lead a team-building retreat for a venture capital firm; coached Ivy League professors in one-on-one and group settings during COVID isolation to foster community building and collaboration; and provided one-on-one support to executive and early career women within the nonprofit space. I have also supported women as they navigate divorce and build what comes after. In addition to coach certification, I hold an MFA in Fine Art degree from the School of Visual Arts (SVA), NYC, and a BA in Fine Art degree from Mercyhurst University, Erie, Pennsylvania (my hometown).
Coaching is a way for me to invite you to see your greatness.
How to work with me:
No two people are alike, and you deserve support for your special considerations. To that end I offer bespoke, one-to-one coaching. It consists of weekly, one-hour conversations typically over Zoom. I am also available in between calls via text or email and the occasional short phone conversation where warranted. I typically work with clients for a period of six months. This, of course, may be customized as needed.
Before a proper engagement, I offer a complimentary, one-hour Discovery Call where you can try coaching for yourself, and get all of your questions answered.
