“Be a voice. Not an echo”
― Albert Einstein
Sometimes we learn to be who the world needs us to be long before we ever figure out who we actually are. We get good at showing up. At doing what’s expected. At holding it all together. At quieting our voices to become that echo.
Think walking in a pair of shoes two sizes too small. If it sounds really uncomfortable, it is.
Hi, I’m Pam, and that was me. The woman who walked in those shoes for far too long.
This isn’t going to be a sob story or “a feel sorry for me” moment. I promise. Just a little bit about the woman behind the work.
The Before Picture
From the time I was little, I knew how to show up for everything and everyone. I got good at being the good little girl who was seen and not heard. It helped me to stay safe and to blend in.
Which ultimately lead to the young woman who could hold it all together and keep the peace. Who was damned good at following the rules not because they made sense, but because they felt safer than standing out.
Blend in. Don’t make waves or rock any boats. Go along with what’s expected. Rinse and repeat. That was the rhythm.
And as a result, I stayed in relationships that didn’t feel like home. I stuck with jobs that checked the boxes but left me tired and disconnected. I kept walking in those shoes that were two sizes too small, until I couldn’t do it anymore.
Until honestly, it felt riskier to stay that echo clomping around in shoes that didn’t fit.
When the Picture Started to Change
They say that when you’re in enough pain, you’ll decide to make a change. And in my case that was true. Those shoes hurt and I was tired of walking in them.
That’s when coaching entered my life, not as a fix, but as a safe space to let my voice out. A space where I was encouraged to be me. A space where I was challenged (in a good way) to look at all the B.S. stories that kept me that echo walking in shoes two sizes too small.
That space changed everything.
Bit by bit, story by story, I started to see myself in a different light…as someone whose voice mattered. I began to let go of what no longer fit. And since then, I’ve said goodbye to the relationships that weren’t home and anything that doesn’t feel like me.
The Now Picture
Fast forward to today…to a woman who is on an important mission to create a movement where we stop playing small and start owning not just who we are, but what we're capable of. Where we are voices and not echoes.
Since 2005, I’ve had the amazing privilege of working with smart, thoughtful, capable people who have big goals and meaningful ideas. People who know they’re meant for more and want to stop the self-doubting and second-guessing that’s getting in the way.
As a neuroscience-informed mindset coach, I help them quiet the noise, reconnect with their voice, and move forward in a way the feels like they’re finally walking in their own shoes. Together, we find ways to work with the brain, not against it, to create that momentum and confidence that brings their ideas to life.
Our work together isn’t about pushing harder. It’s about choosing differently and learning how to trust yourself in the process.
If You're Here
Maybe you’re in that space too.
You’ve done the work. You’ve read the books. You’ve had the conversations. And yet it still feels like you're walking in shoes that don't fit. If that’s where you are, I get it. And I want you to know that doesn’t mean something is wrong with you. It means you’re ready for something different.
So, if you're ready to stop doubting, stop second-guessing, and start showing up in a way that feels good to you, I’d be honored to support you. Together, we’ll clear what’s been getting in the way and build the kind of traction that creates sustainable movement towards what matters most to you, personally and professionally.
