threshold coaching journeys

navigating the spaces between where life happens

I know the fear and anxiety of standing at the threshold of the unknown.

After spending two decades inside government and humanitarian systems, I know the space between service and sacrifice all too well.

When I left my 20-year career in government service to go out on my own, I navigated every difficult emotion that comes with stepping away from security and structure. The fear around money and stability. The overwhelm that comes with endless possibilities and no clear path forward. The identity crisis of wondering who you are when you're not defined by a mission, title, or institution.

Having walked through that liminal space myself, I can tell you there is life, joy, and profound meaning on the other side—but getting there requires holding space for both the grief of what you're leaving and the uncertainty of what's emerging.

what if the discomfort of not knowing what comes next isn't a sign that something is wrong?

We spend so much of our lives in liminal spaces—those uncomfortable in-between places where the old story no longer fits but the new one hasn't yet formed.

Between burnout and rest. Between what was and what's next. Between who we were and who we're becoming.

Threshold spaces are everywhere, but we’ve never been taught how to be in them. We’ve been conditioned to fear them. To rush through them. To treat uncertainty as a problem to fix rather than sacred ground for transformation.

what this work is (and isn’t)

This work isn't about resume writing or job search strategy—there are excellent career coaches for that practical support. Instead, this is threshold work: learning to root yourself in uncertainty, to listen to what's arising in the quiet spaces, and to make choices from a place of connection rather than conditioned urgency.

Threshold coaching honors what is most essential in us—our values, our intuition, our connection to something larger than ourselves—and allows us to live and lead from that space.

Threshold coaching recognizes that the rush to "figure it out" and "get to the next thing" is itself a form of systemic conditioning. The sacred resistance is in refusing to rush through your becoming—choosing to honor these transitional spaces as fertile ground for discovering who you are when you're not performing for systems that were never designed to see your full humanity.

Whether you're healing from institutional harm, navigating unexpected transition, or simply finding yourself in yet another threshold moment—this work meets you in the in-between with curiosity rather than urgency.

the sacred resistance story-healing framework

threshold coaching moves you through a practice designed specifically to address the stories that often block us from being in, and moving through, the liminal spaces we encounter in moments of transition.

the witnessing | rupture - acknowledging what's ending, what's been lost, what's brought you to this threshold. Creating space for the grief that comes with letting go.

the unlearning | remember - examining the stories, identities, and beliefs shaped by systems of power, politics, and paradox. Acknowledging the cost of service and grieving what’s been lost to make space for what’s next.

the grounding | root - untangling identity and self-worth from roles, titles, outcomes, and productivity—and re-rooting into our personal values and truth with compassion.

the restoring | reclaim - exploring the anchors and collective care that nourish us—restoring connection, safety, and the conditions for stability and joy..

the becoming | rise - living into our moral root system—ethics, values, and boundaries—and creating pathways to show up with courage, clarity, and care moving forward.

1:1 coaching journeys

coaching journeys designed to meet you where you are in this moment of transition

Every coaching journey begins with a 90-minute intuitive planning session that combines somatic practices and oracle guidance to help you access your own inner knowing beneath all the noise of transition. This foundational session creates space to identify what's actually happening in this threshold moment, what your body and intuition are telling you about next steps, and what support you need moving forward. This approach ensures the work is primarily guided by your own wisdom and authentic knowing, with additional frameworks woven in when they support deeper transformation. Some people find this single session gives them everything they need to move forward with clarity, while others discover they want deeper support to integrate and build on those insights over time. All coaching programs also include a free 1 year subscription to /rōot/ by dimple dhabalia.

a note about honoring financial realities in liminal spaces

Threshold moments often bring financial uncertainty—especially when leaving systems that never honored our full humanity. The courage to choose integrity over security deserves support, not additional barriers.

mutual aid commitment | I’ve chosen to offer a limited number of spots at a reduced rate each quarter for those experiencing financial hardship due to transition, systemic harm, or other circumstances. These aren’t charity—they’re mutual aid, recognizing that extractive systems often create financial vulnerability precisely when we most need support to remember who we are outside of them. The invitation here is to pay this aid forward in some way in the future when you’re in a position to do so.

For those who have recently left (or are preparing to leave) federal service or humanitarian organizations—your courage to step into the unknown rather than continue participating in systems that diminish humanity deserves to be honored.

This work recognizes that you're not just changing jobs—you're crossing a threshold between versions of yourself. The question isn't "What should I do next?" but rather "Who am I when I'm not performing for systems that were designed to extract rather than nourish?" With that in mind, I make this mutual aid commitment to those needing additional support in these challenging times:

  • threshold session: $400 (normally $500)

  • threshold exploration: $960 (normally $1200)

  • threshold navigation journey: $1,800 (normally $2250)

  • leading through the liminal: $3600 (normally $4500)

Additional reduction for very limited income available for 2 people per quarter.

If you'd like to explore mutual aid options, please fill out this form and we'll connect about what's possible.

a note about sustainability

Like most people I’m a work in prog-mess and have to be very intentional about how I use my time and energy. To ensure that I’m creating sustainability for myself, while also ensuring the best possible services to my clients, I only take a limited number of 1:1 clients at any given time. If the slots are full you’re welcome to join the waitlist for the next available slot, or consider joining one of our group coaching and collective care circles (more information below).

The point of all of this unlearning is to create better systems, cultures and communities. That starts with each of us, including me, choosing to be a part of that change.

/the space between/

group coaching + collective care circles

Some thresholds can only be crossed in the presence of others who understand. This 6-week journey through these in between spaces honors both individual reflection and collective wisdom.

6 weeks | 90 minutes weekly | $850 per person (special launch pricing for our first collective care circle below) | includes workbook + guided journal

Each session weaves together somatic practices to help your nervous system find safety in uncertainty, guided journaling to access your inner wisdom, and facilitated group discussion where your threshold experiences are witnessed and honored by others walking similar paths.

Two ways to participate:

  • Bring Your Own Group: Gather 4-8 colleagues, friends, or community members for a private circle

  • Join an Existing Circle: Connect with others ready for this work in our scheduled groups. See the full list of available circles here.

SPECIAL INAUGURAL PRICING (Sign up by July 8, 2025)

Join us as we launch our first group coaching + collective care circles this summer for $525 per person. A limited number of mutual aid spots are available for $300 to ensure financial barriers don't prevent access to collective threshold support.

Perfect for: Teams navigating organizational transitions, friends/colleagues processing shared experiences, or individuals who prefer to access transformation and healing in community

The liminal isn't the absence of life. It's where life quietly reshapes itself—a fertile threshold where the next version of you is beginning to take root.

You don't need to know exactly where you're going to honor where you are. You're not failing. You're becoming.
