After retirement, Patt walked her talk and seriously upgraded her own life, becoming a small business owner who thrills at helping others develop personally using nature as the catalyst. Since beginning her business in 2001, Patt has helped a myriad of clients get clear about what they REALLY want to do in their life and co-create a plan to make that happen while re-introducing adventurers to their playful side as they hike a trail or paddle a lake. Personally, Patt describes herself as a fitness buff, frequent traveler, reader, cat lover, efficient communicator, adventuresome, playful, optimist, loving partner, step-parent, grandparent and lover of life!

Patt Says:

"I am in the Life Re-Design business. My passion is guiding my coaching clients and my Boomer Chick Participants to achieve personal and business success while creating a life that focuses on the things you are most passionate about. I provide focus in a caring environment for adventuresome ones who really want to re-design your life in a way that fits who you are now and moves you to where you want to be in the future. With the structure, support, and accountability that a powerful coaching partnership lends, I enthusiastically assist you to design and live an inspired and inspiring life, rather than simply a traditionally–defined successful one."

"Being outdoors, whether in the woods, on a mountain peak, seaside, lakeside, or just reading on my deck, this is where I draw my strength and become energized."

"I am most effective as a Life Coach when I combine my passion for the outdoors with my commitment to support and empower others to reach their highest potential and live their Best Life."
