Powerful Tools You Can Use Now
Tapping

I use EFT - Emotional Freedom Technique, also called 'Tapping" as a powerful way to create safety around what you're experiencing.
Tapping the body's meridian points sends calming signals to the worry center of your brain; Helping individuals with a persistent Inner Critic finally find peace.
Mirroring
Mirror neurons help us learn social skills. But they can also cause us unnecessary feelings of worry, overwhelm and stress if we take on other's emotions without regulating our own first.
We can learn to be intentional and create what we want, rather than just be at the effect of what we see other's doing.
Practice Mirroring what you want to believe and achieve for yourself!
Meet Meredith
Master Certified Life Coach
In 2018, I found myself caring for both of my parents—my dad with Parkinson’s and my mom with pancreatic cancer. It was a tender, overwhelming season, and I needed more than just strength to get through it.
The tools I discovered through The Life Coach School and Better Than Happy podcasts helped me navigate that time with more calm, clarity, and compassion—for them and for myself.
For most of my life, my inner critic had been loud and relentless, constantly analyzing and second-guessing everything I did. It was exhausting.
When I caught myself criticizing how I showed up even in my mom’s final moments, I knew something had to change.
I stopped trying to silence that voice and learned to meet it with understanding instead. That shift changed everything.
It’s the work I continue to practice today—and I gently invite you to explore it, too.
I’m certified through The Life Coach School and trained as a Holistic Master Coach through Molly Claire Coaching.
Meredith has a way of exposing my thoughts about myself that leads to aha moments.
Her ability to ask thought provoking questions leads you down a path of self discovery and you know you are not alone. Meredith is beside you all the way. Non judgmental and loving she has a beautiful way to guide you to self acceptance no matter what your age.

Meredith's emails, weekly Drop-In calls, Calm Community Group Coaching and a Conflict to Connection class I took from her last August have all been game changers in my life. Jody Moore and Brooke Castillo laid the foundation for me, but Meredith resonates with me more and was the crowning piece I needed most.

I had the privilege of working with Meredith, and am grateful for the precious gems of knowledge she shared with me. Meredith’s caring, insightful, and nonjudgmental attitude made it easy to share experiences with her! I learned so many things about myself, and how powerful our thoughts are. Thank you for listening, coaching, and guiding me to see my feelings through a new lens. Every session was so empowering! Thank you!!
