Gain clarity and take action with Pathfinders’ coaching.

You sense that, if you made some changes, life could be better — more exciting, less intimidating, more rewarding. And yet… something keeps holding you back.

Whether you’re perplexed, nervous, or just plain stuck, Pathfinders’ coaching can help you move forward.

Pathfinders can help when:

You’re navigating a transition period in your life.

How do I adjust to life in a new city? How do I prepare for retirement? How do I adapt to my new promotion? How do I move forward after loss?

You have a personal or professional decision you need to make.

Should I be saving more money? Should I be honest in my romantic relationship? Should I seek more professional training? What can I do about my parents?

You have a dream you want to realize.

I’d love to switch careers. I wish I could buy a house. I’ve always wanted to start my own business. I wish I could take my dream vacation.

Other signs that it’s the right time to begin coaching:

You feel ongoing stress, a sense of being stuck, or the feeling of drowning daily. Some people describe this as the knowledge that “I should DO something but I’m not sure WHAT.”

It doesn’t have to be that way. A better journey awaits. With Pathfinders, we’ll find your next steps together.

“Pat is a miracle worker! She helps me find simple (& fun) ways to reach and often exceed my dreams. Why wait another minute to be your best authentic self?”

— Kelly, Talent Manager at Standard Process, Wisconsin

At Pathfinders, we know you already possess your own inner compass. Even if you aren’t sure how to use it yet.
You can chart your course in life with two key tools: your **True North Values** and your **Birthright Gifts**. They are the underpinnings of your most authentic self — and we’ll work together to discover them.
From there, we’ll create a plan that honors what you most deeply want, so you can move forward courageously.
**With these tools, you can always find your way.**
