Hi, I’m Nona

Are you ready to experience more clarity and inspired action in your business? Let’s dig in.

Being in business is an ongoing opportunity for growth.

I know you have a life to live, goals you are invested in, a family who needs you, and perhaps a business that requires your attention. Too often, the state of your body, energy, or emotions is ignored, dismissed, and worked around until you simply cannot ignore it any longer. I know it doesn’t feel like it at the moment, but this kind of exhaustion and pain is an invitation - an opportunity to turn toward yourself to heal and build a strong foundation for the business and life you truly desire. It is a call to address the pain, the resistance, and the old trauma imprints that have been overlooked - until now.

I am committed to creating nourishing space for you to experience more energy as you move into your natural state of flow - a foundation that gives you the clarity to move into inspired action and experience life-affirming success.

For the last 19 years, I have had the honor and privilege of supporting women through individual transformative coaching, yogic practices, courses, and group learning experiences that empower authentic success built on a foundation of well-being.

Are you ready to relax into clarity and inspired action?

I believe

Intention + action = transformation. This is the sacred rhythm of all change that you want to initiate in your life.
You are the medicine that you seek. The answers and the healing you seek are in you - what if you trust what your body, your energy, and your intuition are telling you? Everything conspires to return you to your radiant wholeness.
Your pain - be it physical, emotional, or energetic - is wisdom. Learning to slow down and listen to your body, your emotions, and ultimately your soul, opens you to deep wisdom when you trust the healing process.
You are creating a legacy and leaving your mark. When you say yes to healing, you bless your own life, yes, but you also bless your ancestors and your descendants.
What you seek is seeking you. I deeply believe that the universe, Source, and the Divine conspire to bring you into alignment with who you are meant to be in this lifetime. Our pain is often pointing us in the direction we are here to go.
Pleasure and joy are deeply nourishing and healing. Pain does not preclude opening to receive the pleasure and goodness of life. Whatever feeds your soul, please do it. This, too, is part what helps you heal and is a vital aspect of your wisdom.
You can do hard things. Your healing, your vision, and your life will require you to do hard things.
Gratitude and appreciation will change you. Opening you to receive the bounty, beauty, and magic in this moment is not about trying to avoid your pain and struggle, it offers the grace of perspective.

Be a woman with an inspiring story of healing and growth.

I would love to help.

What women say about our work together.

"Nona's wisdom guided me to peel back layers and let my inner wisdom emerge in ways that I'd never imagined. Her guidance always felt magically timed, as if she'd been able to anticipate every ebb, every ripple, and every shift to create and offer nurturing and nourishing support along the way."

Elena Sonnino, Master Coach
“I hired Nona to mentor and coach me through the launch of a new program, which has been an incredible success! During sessions, Nona offers just the right question or suggestion to foster the kind of lift and direction that creates results. Coaching with Nona has enriched my business and my life.”

Allison Evans, Master Coach
"When I started working with Nona, I was seeking deep healing and expansion on so many levels. The collaborative coaching process brought so much clarity. I loved learning how to own and honor my sensibilities, reimagining the way I move in the world. My gratitude for Nona knows no bounds!

My current passion obsession

Now that my daughter is off to college and my family is no longer nomadic, I have been called to dive into watercolor painting. It may be an understatement that I have become obsessed with understanding the wisdom of the Gene Keys through the energy of the non-human animals that The Gene Keys team puts forth in their amazing course, The Dream Arc.

I love that my process of painting each animal highlights how I embody the Gene Keys and also helps bring the animals and their wisdom regarding my Gene Keys to life - I am delighted and fascinated with how the animals speak to me as I’m working with them. Here are some paintings I’ve done for the animals that correspond to the gates in my Gene Keys Activation sequence. (Note: if you would like to learn more about The Gene Keys, I would begin with the Activation Sequence.)

As I have spent longer periods of my life in post-traumatic growth, I find following my intuition to pursue certain things brings more joy, creativity, and connection into my life. I believe wholeheartedly that our commitment to individual understanding and healing brings healing to the whole. I want that for you and I believe in that level of healing and wholeness for the collective.
