Sinéad’s coaching is informed by her personal wellness journey (including navigating thyroid autoimmunity) and her earlier career in the corporate world, which gives her a practical lens on what it takes to create realistic change in busy, demanding schedules.
Clients commonly seek her support for concerns such as digestive issues, weight struggles, fatigue, gut health, stress-related symptoms, hormone imbalance, depression/anxiety, autoimmune conditions, and chronic illness—always with an emphasis on achievable habits that last.

Ted has a passion for helping people live healthy and meaningful lives. It’s why he pursued his Master’s Degree in Mental Health Counseling from Syracuse University 15 years ago. Through his counselor training, he noticed how easily his clients became stuck on their symptoms and diagnoses.

That’s when he became certified in coaching which helps people connect with their strength and motivation instead of ruminating on the things they see as broken. From this place, Ted’s clients build confidence and motivation – the two not- so-secret ingredients of real and lasting change.

He loves helping his clients go deep emotionally and make changes that align with their most authentic selves. When Ted isn’t coaching or working with his therapy clients, he enjoys backcountry snowboarding, mountain biking, paragliding, and finding any excuse to go camping in the desert.

May Bartlett is a Master Certified Coach through The International Coaching Federation with over a decade of coaching experience. She also holds a Masters Degree in East/West Psychology from The California Institute of Integral Studies. I specialize in working with people seeking fulfillment outside of the norm – whether you’re a change maker, leader, advocate, or otherwise – the common thread I see in my clients is they’re seeking something not easily found, clearing new paths into the unknown to find something better for themselves.

May’s passion is helping people break free from societal norms to live their most meaningful and impactful life, however that might manifest for you! She loves coaching because despite the number of external barriers keeping us from pursuing our soul path, we all have hidden inner barriers holding us back. These thoughts, beliefs, stories, and emotional states create the lenses through which we see the world. If we try to create external changes through the same lenses we’ve been wearing, we won’t get very far. By working together to understand and change your lenses, you’ll unlock possibilities you can’t yet imagine.

Cori’s first encounter with coaching changed her life. She was working as a wilderness adventure therapy guide with teenagers who were mandated to her program. She wanted so badly to help these young humans live more meaningful lives but felt stuck in a situation where she wanted change more than them.

That’s when she called a coach. She noticed how quickly her formerly stuck life found direction and momentum. Cori immediately enrolled in a coaching certification program and since then has accumulated 500 plus hours that qualify her as a Professional Certified Coach.

She loves challenging people to overcome fears and take risks almost as much as she loves seeing her clients reach goals that they never thought possible. Her experience, skills, and knowledge combined with clients strong desires to make an impact in their life are what allows for positive changes to unfold. When she isn’t coaching, she enjoys being outside and spending time with her dog.

He has his 200 hour yoga training certification and specializes in 7 different styles. In his free time Terrence enjoys hiking, bouldering, meditating, reading and freestyle dancing.
