COACHING WITH MAKAYLA

Come experience what it feels like to have someone in your corner.

1:1 coaching for people who are ready to turn their strength and care toward themselves, without having to figure it all out alone.

Sometimes all it takes is one real, focused hour to shift the whole trajectory of what's next.

THIS IS FOR YOU IF:

Something in your life has shifted, big or quiet, and you feel disoriented or stressed


You're training in self-defense, or you've always wanted to, and it's stirring up more than you expected

You feel wired, shut down, or somewhere in between more than you'd like

You're craving steadiness in your body, not just insight in your head

You bring your strength and care to others, but can tend to neglect yourself

You want support in accessing your own truth and wisdom

"Makayla is a natural at coaching.

She is the guide who has walked these roads before. The way she would lead me through the tapping was magical. Because I knew I could trust her, I followed where she led me, through the dark tunnel and into the light to a new place. She helped me find my own new thoughts and magic there. It was so helpful to know that I could go to those dark places and I didn't have to be alone or scared.

Now, I have these tools and it feels like Makayla is here with me when I tap. This work has helped me remember my power, and given me a new way to relate to myself. Makayla has a very special gift of helping people down this healing path."

A Little About Me & My Work

I started this work because I needed it myself. I had been aware of EFT Tapping since I was a teenager, and I knew how effective it could be at shifting unhelpful patterns. At the height of my struggles with emotional eating and negative body image, I found a program that first helped me heal, and then taught me how to help other women struggling in those same ways. I went on to do many other trainings, adding depth, nuance, and techniques to my repertoire. And through thousands of hours of sessions, I've honed what I do into something that is incredibly gentle, and effective.

I've navigated many changes and challenges in my life: moving to new cities, loss of loved ones, health challenges, career changes, and more. I know what it's like to feel stuck, to feel like you know all the right things but you just aren't doing them, and to feel disconnected from your power and sense of love, contentment, and peace. I've witnessed this work change my life for the better, as well as the lives of the women I've worked with.

As someone who's always been a student of life, of myself, and of human nature, I see my coaching role as a supporting role to all my clients. You are the hero on your hero's journey. I am a helper and guide: by being a compassionate witness, cheering you on, and equipping you with tools and awareness that you can carry with you for the rest of your life.

My work currently centers around helping deeply caring women through big life transitions that leave them feeling stressed, disoriented, and quietly asking, "who am I now?" I'm also a certified Women Empowered jiu jitsu instructor, and that work has transformed me and subsequently my coaching. I feel passionate about helping other women feel emotionally supported on their training journeys.

Coaching with me is a space to slow down, get honest, and feel supported in connecting with yourself. I use EFT tapping along with deep visualizations to move stuck emotions out of the body, creative practices to access what logic can't always reach, and a practice close to my heart: letters written across time, to reconnect you with the love, strength, and wisdom you already have.

My role is to help your system settle enough so you can hear yourself more clearly, and trust what you find.

From Women I've Worked With

"My one on one sessions with Makayla were truly transformative. I came away with a sense of possibility and feeling capable of changing the course of what was happening in my life. My inner critic was so loud it was hard to tap on my own, but with Makayla, I could, and the benefit and the calm I felt from doing this work was truly helpful."


— Liz F.

"My work with Makayla was so helpful! I really liked how each session was uniquely tailored to me and how she drew from her tools and experience to address exactly what was coming up for me in a pointed, caring way."


— Gwynneth V.
