More About Patty
My coaching and consulting practice is a vibrant intersection of passion for empowering women and a practical, integrative approaches. I am dedicated to guiding individuals and leaders through transformative journeys, unlocking their true potential, and fostering the cultivation of purpose.
Throughout my extensive career, I have embraced various roles, from senior leadership positions to program director and life and leadership coach. My focus has consistently been on team building and leadership development, where I’ve had the privilege of coaching and mentoring thousands of individuals. My experiences revealed that unresolved emotional wounds often serve as barriers to personal and professional advancement. By addressing these blocks, we not only remove obstacles but also unlock new levels of success and fulfillment. This realization inspired me to focus on assisting women in crafting the futures they desire, incorporating a trauma-informed leadership approach that trains leaders and teams in equitable and human-centric practices to enhance productivity, reduce absenteeism, and harness the unique skills of neurodivergent individuals impacted by trauma.
From these extensive interactions, I developed the S.P.A.R.K framework for one of my signature coaching programs. Anchored in empowerment and faith-based coaching, this framework emphasizes emotional resilience, spiritual formation, and professional development.
My personal journey of leadership, self-discovery, and healing has been one of profound transformation. It is this personal evolution that drives my commitment to support others in unveiling their full potential. I am honored to accompany individuals on their unique paths of self-discovery, healing, and professional growth.
Under my guidance, you will access your innate strength, resilience, and purpose. Together, we will develop tools to navigate life’s challenges and achieve remarkable personal growth. I invite you to join me on this transformative journey toward living a purposeful and fulfilling life.
These photos represent just a few of the standout moments from my entrepreneurial journey. Throughout my career, I’ve been honored with numerous awards, including cars, trips, diamonds, and cash prizes. Invited by federal agencies, I’ve had the privilege to share my story on camera, training hundreds of thousands of individuals. Additionally, I’ve personally educated thousands more, sharing insights and lessons learned along the way.
I’ve selected these images as reminders that, despite life’s challenges and obstacles, my commitment to giving back to the community remains unwavering. I couldn’t have reached where I am today without the invaluable support of mentors, friends, and coaches. The day I received my diploma from college might have been the most emotional day of all! You see, I had always dreamed of earning a degree in the US, but when I arrived, nothing was as promised. After overcoming extreme challenges, barriers, and significant healing, I finally pursued that dream. I now hold a master’s degree. Though it didn’t happen when or how I originally envisioned, the day still arrived when my dream became a reality.
These pictures capture moments when significant events could have held me back, but with the right support, I persevered. They serve as a testament that with determination and the right guidance, you can overcome obstacles and succeed too.
My "why"
Discovering My “Why”
From a young age, I envisioned a life rich in family happiness and professional success, aspirations I feared might be unattainable due to the numerous adversities and losses I encountered. Yet, against all odds, I’ve crafted a fulfilling existence, anchored by over two decades of love and dedication within my marriage, and the joy of raising three remarkable children. They are my “why” — the core of my drive and commitment to personal and spiritual growth.
Family is the cornerstone of my happiness; moments with them, from daily routines to vacation getaways, are my life’s highlights. Our home brims with love, not only for each other but also for our cherished pets — two dogs, two cats, a bunny, and a horse. These animals bring additional joy and comfort to our family life.
For relaxation, I indulge in spa days, enjoy walks with my dog Cooper along the beach, and cherish deep conversations with loved ones. I am a lifelong learner, continually engaging with self-improvement books, podcasts, and webinars to nourish my mind and spirit.
My path hasn’t been devoid of challenges. A severe health scare two years ago starkly reminded me of life’s fragility, prompting me to reshape my priorities towards health and well-being. Today, I am committed to setting boundaries that protect my health, recognizing that a vibrant and healthy me is the greatest gift I can offer to my family.
Life’s unpredictable twists have only deepened my dedication to intentional living, cherishing every moment with family, embracing self-care, and relentlessly pursuing personal and spiritual growth. Each step of this journey enriches my existence with invaluable lessons and profound gratitude for the love and experiences that define who I am today.
Animals play a pivotal role in our family’s life. As a certified trauma-informed equine-assisted educator, I’ve incorporated horses into my work to deepen the healing process for my clients. Horses, along with all our animals, are keenly sensitive to human emotions, offering unique insights into connecting more profoundly with ourselves and others. The images featured here showcase the animals that have significantly touched our lives. Each one has a unique story and a special way of interacting with our family and clients. Like us, these animals have overcome various challenges, and now they enrich our lives while receiving all the care and affection they deserve.
