Welcome to a Whole New World of Personal & Professional Development for Coaches & Creative Experts

What is Self-Certified™?

Self-Certified™ is at once an idea, a process, and a rallying cry.

Born from rebellion and resolve, Self-Certified™ is my response to influencer-led advice culture, and a call for something deeper and more discerning.

I innovated a process that empowers smart, thoughtful coaches – new and experienced alike – to gain the trust and recognition of an increasingly discerning clientele by developing their own, evidence-based methodologies and holding themselves – and each other – to the highest standards of excellence.

In a time when clients are craving bespoke, expert support and practitioners are burned out by the pressure to perform, Self-Certified™ offers a path to credibility that begins with mastery.

Curious what’s next?

Here’s where you’ll find all the ways we can work together – free or paid, big commitment or low lift, now or later. Follow what feels like your next right step…
