Holistic Career Coaching for Social Impact Leaders

Hi! I’m Noëlle and I help tired social impact and social change leaders reclaim their joy, creativity, and physical vitality.

I do this as a transformational career coach and healing mentor, supporting individuals and organizations to live and work in alignment with their values. Using a combination of coaching and somatic inquiry, we look together at how you can heal internal stumbling blocks by learning to train your brain, track your nervous system, and consult and trust your intuition. This up-leveling in the realms of intuition and alignment creates magic in the lives of all my clients. ✨

I can also help you craft a beautiful life in the face of capitalism, get into the weeds of editing your cover letter/resume with you, and help you build a network of amazing humans who want to support you in all you’re up to in the world.

Who? Social impact leaders who identify as being on a healing journey.

What? My sweet spots are healing toxic workplaces/oppression/ burnout/health challenges + helping folks launch businesses/orgs/big projects.

How? I’ll support you to design, craft, and embody a meaningful life you love.

The coolest part about being coached is that time and time again, Noelle guides me to realize that I already have and know the “right” answer within myself. It’s incredibly empowering. Another more mundane, but super powerful, benefit I’ve gotten from it is she helps me to be accountable and get the shit done that I want to get done.

Why work with me? 

Are you

  • Deeply committed to making the world a brighter, better connected, and more just place?

  • Recovering from a health challenge, injury, chronic pain, grief, or toxic work culture?

  • Ready to live life in a fuller, richer way?

  • Willing to get uncomfortable in service of your healing and growth?

  • LGBTQIA2SGNC+?

If any of the above are true for you, we might be a good fit. ❤️ I've been on a long journey with my healing, my identity and sexuality, activism, and my art. I've also had one hell of a ride figuring out how to contribute in ways that make an impact AND allow me to be my most authentic self.

It turns out that with the right tools and support, you can make a lot happen with a lot of ease and grace. I love supporting all kinds of people but I especially jive with folks who are on paths that intersect with mine. 

I am a politicized, trauma-informed, HAES-aligned practitioner and my learning journey is ongoing.

Some of the questions that guide my work:

  • How can we be more in our bodies?

  • How do we dream the world we want into being, in community?

  • What gets us closer to liberation?

  • What will allow us to survive and evolve with joy in the face of COVID and climate disaster?

  • How do we foster a culture in which everyone loves all of themselves the way Lizzo loves herself?

  • What does it look like to do my work from a place of loving myself?

I have supported clients to:

  • Escape the golden handcuffs of “good” jobs that aren’t actually a good fit

  • Leave (and heal from) toxic workplaces

  • Switch industries or careers

  • Start their own coaching, consulting, or portfolio careers

  • Improve and expand existing coaching businesses

  • Launch careers in writing or other creative careers

  • Adjust to life as a working parent

Noëlle’s authenticity and connectedness come through in every facet of her healing work. She balances compassion, depth, lightheartedness, and professionalism with ease.
