Gabrièle is passionate about learning and growing through all stages of life. She brings an optimistic perspective and a collaborative spirit to her work with clients. As a lifelong student, she views each day as an opportunity to find out something more about oneself, one’s relationships, and the world.
With a first career as an educator, a PhD in Curriculum and Instruction (Art Education and Folklore) from Indiana University (2008), and certifications as a Thriving Relationship Coach, Joy Potential Coach, and Reiki III Master/Practitioner, she is grounded not only in teaching and learning, but also in wonder, awe, and the understanding that all things connect.
As a podcast devotee, Gabrièle is constantly listening and studying our fascinating world and wants to know more about everything from the arts to brain science. She thinks every human has a uniquely interesting story to tell and believes deeply in the innate goodness of people, knowing that with the right support anyone and everyone can learn, grow, change, and affect the world for the better.
Gabrièle understands that joy is a resource we all have inside of us and that we sometimes need help learning how to tap into it.
Gabrièle practices living with intention and joy everyday with her husband and their wonderful teenage son, while tending gardens, cooking for family and friends, walking in nature, practicing yoga, taking photographs, and making gifts.
