HELLO AND WELCOME.​
​
I'm Liz Rees. I'm glad you are here! I've been privileged to work with hundreds of clients as they navigate their unique journey towards greater wholeness and agency.
​
My approach to coaching and community building is deeply informed by my spiritual path, which weaves together Mahayana Buddhist practice with my Christian roots. I believe that our deepest wisdom emerges when we create space to listen beyond our conditioned patterns – whether through meditation, prayer, community, or small experiments in daily life.
​
While my spiritual practice forms an important foundation for my work, I'm committed to creating spaces where everyone feels welcome. I honor each person's unique path and don't impose my beliefs on others. The practices and experiments I share can be engaged with from any spiritual perspective or none at all – the focus is always on helping you connect with your own inner wisdom, whatever form that takes for you.​
​​
Professional Background
​
I've received extensive training and certification as a coach, positive psychology practitioner, and HeartMath facilitator. I have over a decade of meditation experience and am a meditation teacher training with John Churchill of Planetary Dharma. My toolkit also includes training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and The Change Triangle. In addition to my personal coaching practice, I guide retreats and design experiential workshops and programs.
​​
My journey into this work took a winding path. Before coaching, I spent 12 years in non-profit and international development across the United States, Colombia, and Kenya, applying my Masters degree in International Relations. I saw how individual flourishing is always interconnected with the wellbeing of our communities and planet.
​
Approach
​
I believe we all have access to profound inner wisdom, but often can't hear it through the noise of conditioned thinking, cultural expectations, and fear of emotional discomfort. The experimental approach I share helps individuals reclaim their ability to act, to exercise agency, by:
​​
-
Developing a healthy relationship between personality and soul
-
Using their full capacities–-body, intuition, energy, emotions, mind, dreams, clairvoyance–-to understand what's within and around them
-
Building capacity to be present with all emotions
-
Taking small, aligned actions guided by deeper wisdom
-
Creating authentic connection with others
-
Learning to co-create with life itself
​
I don't have all the answers, but I'm a committed fellow traveler who believes in the power of community, contemplative practice, and courageous experimentation to help us live more soul-led lives.
Beyond Work
​
Life has been my greatest teacher. I've sailed the seas as a former sailboat captain, lived in a remote Mongolian village as a Peace Corps volunteer, lived and worked internationally for 13 years, and now navigate the beautiful chaos of life with my husband, two children, and two frisky cats. I'm a regular meditator, podcast aficionado, nature enthusiast, Scorpio, and Enneagram 7.
​
While I take my work very seriously, I'm also a playful, light-hearted person. I grew up in Jersey which gives me a straight-talker, life-is-too-absurd-not-to-laugh, kind of vibe.
​
If you're looking for support to reclaim your agency and live from a deeper source of wisdom, I'm here to help.
