About

So nice to meet you!

I am a Certified Professional Coach through the ICF-accredited Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching, and have specialized certification as a performance and transition coach.  And most recently have become a certified yoga breathing coach and mindfulness educator.

My journey to professional coaching began during my 15-year career as Human Resources professional. This is where my passion for career and professional development coaching began.  Helping employees to develop critical skills and build self-confidence to change their lives and careers inspired me to learn about motivational techniques, building resilience, overcoming obstacles and navigating change.

Let's back up a little..

Prior to coaching I was a high school Spanish teacher, Librarian, Mediator and Human Resources Manager and Consultant. While all of these jobs seemed unrelated, they actually did have a common thread. They all focused on connection and communication. Through these jobs I became an expert listener, a keen observer of behavior, a master question-asker, a human resources junkie,  a trusted advocate, a passionate trainer, and an enthusiastic cheerleader.  All excellent qualities for a soon-to-be life coach.

When did I take the Leap?

I had developed a pattern of working at jobs that I was overqualified for and then leaving when I became bored. I was quick to find fault with these jobs whether it was management, my co-workers, the industry, etc. When I took a closer I realized that the common denominator was “me” . It was my fear of failure, or fear of success, my attachment to my comfort zone and my belief that I wasn’t qualified or good enough.  I was holding myself back.  This realization moved me to look within myself and drove me to make a change. When I actively sought out answers the opportunity to grow and transform presented itself through a suggestion from a friend to pursue life coaching.  My life has not been the same since!

A Defining Moment 

My story would not be complete if I didn’t share with you my defining moment - the moment that I was diagnosed with Lupus. Lupus is a chronic inflammatory disease in which the body’s immune system fails to serve its normal protective functions and instead forms antibodies that attack healthy tissues and organs.
This diagnosis was a harsh blow after which my life changed drastically as it forced me to rewrite everything I thought I knew about myself, my health and my body. It took a strength and resilience that I didn’t know I had to take that defining moment and decide that I would not be limited by disease. My intention would be to do more than just merely survive – I would thrive. In order to accomplish this I focused on my own personal development through coaching. It was through coaching that I built up the mental, physical and spiritual balance necessary to thrive. My vision of limitless growth is deeply rooted in my commitment to thrive and to help others thrive as well

Who am I? 

I am a traveler, fitness enthusiast, dog mom, mindfulness meditator, change agent,  eternal student, cyclist, ukulele player, peace-seeker, compassion-sharing life coach and lupus thriver.

-Lynn T.

I am a 40 year old professional and prior to my coaching sessions with Sylvia I had many fears that prevented me from accomplishing my long term goals. Sylvia is an objective, non-judgmental supportive listener; she helped me explore and identify goals and areas of improvement. She helped me focus on what I really wanted and break through what was holding back; and helped not just manage, but thrive in the face of change.
-Claudia A.

Working with Sylvia for the last year or so I have been through a lot of life.  The two different coaching modalities that she works with have helped me tremendously.  With the integrative core energy modality I was able to see what level of energy that I bring when I interact with people and what level of energy someone operates at. This was amazing because it helped me analyze my interactions from a different lens that I did not have before. I have also utilized the accountability coaching program modality which was a challenge that was presented to me.  I took the challenge and it helped me become more proactive about my life and what I want to do.  It really made me focus on accomplishing goals and stop procrastinating. 

Being able to utilize both of these modalities has really helped me navigate the world differently and given me different lenses to view my life. I am more intrinsically motivated and now I know how to decipher people’s energy and realize what level they operate at; this is what these two coaching modalities have given me, which are life changers!!
