About
Higher Good Coaching was born out of a desire to live a more authentic, purposeful life and to help others to do the same. It was while working in a training and coaching capacity in an educational setting that Becky realized that, while she enjoyed the work she was doing, she could have an even greater impact by working with individuals and teams outside of the field of academia. With that goal in mind, she enrolled in Coach U, the leading global provider of coach training programs, in order to further hone her knowledge and skills in the area of coaching in order to better serve others.
​
Here at Higher Good Coaching, our personal and professional motto is "Love Self, Serve Others" as we recognize the importance of living a life of service but know that must be anchored in self-care in order to be most productive. We see our mission as partnering with our clients in order to facilitate growth and encourage personal and professional exploration. We recognize that each person comes to us with a unique background, perspective, and set of values, which is part of what makes the coaching experience so worthwhile for all involved. We look forward to hearing your story and learning more about how we can partner with you to help you to live your ideal life.
