Finding Your Path

by Pace on February 11, 2009

You have a precious gift in your heart. It yearns to be shared, and you’re doing your best, but something just isn’t working. You’re exhausted from the struggle, feeling lost and directionless.

What to do? What’s the path forward?

It’s hard to find your path in life, and when life drops a giant boulder in the middle of your path, it’s even harder to get past it.

What if you had a guide?

Imagine that you had someone to point out the dead ends and pitfalls, so you could spend more time actually walking your path, as you were meant to, instead of groping through the fog or pushing on that big boulder. Imagine that you had someone who could read the signposts and point you in the right direction. Imagine that you had a helping hand to catch you when you stumble.

I would be honored to be your guide. And I would be honored to have you as my apprentice.

I’ll be able to help you best if:

  1. You know that you want to find or forge your own path, not follow in anyone else’s footsteps.
  2. You are open to reflection and change.
  3. You’ve felt, at least once in your life, an inkling or an intuition that you have a path that’s calling to you. Maybe faintly, maybe strongly, maybe clearly, maybe mixed-up… but your heart, on some level, feels the pull.

If these three things are true for you, I can help you.

The Pathfinding Apprenticeship

To find your path and remove the obstacles blocking you, it takes more than a session or two. We’ll be doing deep work and getting to the root of things, not just applying a quick fix that won’t stick. The Pathfinder Apprenticeship is a 6-month, one-on-one coaching package. Here’s how it works.

First, you’ll submit an application. Next, we’ll talk on the phone for a little while. You don’t need to prepare anything; we’ll just chat about your situation and talk about how I might be able to help you. This call is totally free (money-wise and commitment-wise).

Then, if you’re in, we’ll have:

  • 6 Pathfinder sessions, 1 hour each, once a month
  • and email support as needed.

I’ll also record all our sessions and make them available to you so you can refer back to them. Sometimes, a segment of our call makes a useful meditation or reminder. In that case, I’ll also make that segment available as a separate audio file for you.

My promise to you

I promise to be gentle. If a kick in the pants is called for, I promise to kick as gently and compassionately as possible. (: I promise to treat everything you say as sacred and confidential. I know it’s hard, and I want to help. I know that you have a light inside you that’s bursting to get out, and I want to help you shine!

What are the sessions like?

In broad strokes, I’ll help you with one of two things in each session:

  1. Finding your path
  2. Getting around (or through) obstacles on your path

Here are some examples of things we might do during a session.

  • Exploring ways to turn your passion into a vocation
  • Identifying and rewriting old patterns
  • Seeking your life’s purpose
  • Finding nourishment to carry on your work
  • Healing toxic relationships
  • Learning how to step into your own power without harming others
  • Figuring out ways to quiet that “not good enough” voice
  • Brainstorming and busting business-blocking barriers
  • Opening up to love

Each session ends with a clear task to focus on, so you’ll know exactly what to do to take the next step on your path.

At the end of the program, you will have a sense of clarity, purpose, ease, and confidence.

  • You’ll feel certain that you are walking on the right path.
  • You’ll feel fulfilled in the day-to-day steps you take in your journey.
  • You’ll feel a newfound sense of ease and peace; your life will feel more like an adventure and less like a struggle.
  • You’ll feel confidence in making decisions. Like the arrow that springs from the bow; no hesitation, no doubts.

Big goals, I know. But I’m confident that I can help you get there if you’re willing to make this commitment to yourself.

But you don’t have to take my word for it! Here’s what some of my clients have to say about working with me.


Pace, you have mad skillz as a coach. I signed up for the Pathfinder Program because I had this vague sense that my business needed more of my heart in it, but I didn’t really know what that meant or what to do about it. Six months later, I now have reliable access to my heart. I have trust and faith that my heart knows where to go, and how to lead my business in the right direction. The strength of your faith is very reassuring. You’re a constant, strong anchor. You have direct access to this constant source of, well… Source. I always felt like you gave me support and direction, and now I feel clear and confident about my own direction. Thank you. You inspire me.

At the end of the Pathfinder Program with Pace, what do I have now that I didn’t have when I began? I have my “wonderbubble”. It’s like a go-kart of peace that doesn’t take any gas and I can ride it anywhere I want. It’s a sense of confidence and ease that I never had before, and now I can access it in any situation.

And now that I’ve got this wonderbubble, I feel safe to unfold my heart fully. I have a deeper and richer connection with the Universe and with other people. What that actually looks like is, for example, me leaving the house and connecting with people in real life. I used to be sort of a hermit, and now I’m coming out of my shell in ways I never had before.

I feel like my life is just beginning. The Pathfinder Program was my six-month chrysalis. Now I’m a butterfly, and I’m ready to fly.

I just finished my second Pathfinder Coaching session with Pace, and I can’t restrain myself from spinning out a testimonial.

I’ve had the privilege of working with—and for—some of the top strategists, coaches, consultants, intuitives, and clairvoyants in the world. (I’m a lucky duck).

In my humble, unbiased opinion, Pace is very, very special. From the first few minutes of our consultation call, I felt a sense of being profoundly witnessed. When she paused to consider whether or not she could, in fact, help me—a critical step that all-too-many coaches skip!—I knew I was dealing with a person of ethics, integrity and self-awareness. A service provider devoted to, uh, service. Pretty revolutionary.

Pace’s coaching style is conscious, but not calculated. I never feel like she’s simply planning what to say next, to fill the silence. I always feel like she’s listening—deeply. And the insights that pour out are nothing short of miraculous.

In two hours with Pace, I’ve grasped murky patterns that have muddled up my romantic relationships since—forever. I’ve learned the difference between self-confidence and self-love, and I’m (beginning to) learn how to close the gap. Starting with shiny baubles, daily rituals and self-dates. Score!

By the end of our third session, I expect to gain several superpowers, such as X-ray vision, telekinesis and levitation. Not really. But…probably.

“In working with you, Pace, I’ve learned to trust myself. When we started working together, I was all caught up in my head. Now I’m in touch with my heart, regularly and deeply.

I’m not totally left brained or right, I’m right down the middle. I’m a Jill of All Trades. I felt bad that I didn’t have this one major talent, this obvious “THIS IS YOUR CALLING” sign lit up in neon lights.

But one of the things I loved most about working with you is that you have a way of getting to know each person and learning what works for them. We tried lots of new things, and I never had an “Eww, that was awful” experience. You’re so intuitive that it just comes to you. You never second-guessed yourself, you just pulled out whatever was needed from Pace’s Bag of Magic. And that’s what I needed – a little bit of lots of different kinds of magic.

If we hadn’t been working together, I would be hating myself right now. I would be curled up in a ball, grieving (or avoiding grieving) and hating myself. You helped me through that. You weren’t afraid to witness any of that grief. You leaned into the discomfort, you helped me sit with my feelings instead of judging them. And now I’ve come out the other side and I’m taking a leap of faith.

Now I have that boldness and clarity that was the reason I signed up, because I have that self-trust that I didn’t have before.

You’ve been a true blessing. Thank you, thank you, thank you.”

How much does it cost?

The 6-session Pathfinder Package is $2250.

Is this right for me?

I trust your intuition. If your intuition says “maybe”, I encourage you to fill out an application so we can talk on the phone for a little while. It’s far easier to connect over the phone than via text, and it’ll give your intuition more to chew on. I promise not to pressure you, I just want to give us a little time and space to connect.

How do I sign up?

This one’s easy! Just fill out this application and click “Submit.” I promise I’ll get back to you within two business days. You can also use the application to submit questions even if you’re not sure you want to apply.
