Wherever you are right now, change is possible.
Whether you can picture the better week or only know this one isn't working, we start from where you are. We work with anyone who wants to make a change.
Call, text or leave your details and we will call you. · Veterans and first responders, 15% off.
The distance between where you are and where you want to be.
Thinking about it harder rarely closes that distance, wherever you start from. What closes it is noticing the small decisions that undo you, being able to name what you actually felt, and seeing where your attention really went. Three rooms of a house with four.
Our method →Our services
Guiding Light Coaching works one to one with adults, young adults and families who want to make a change, whether you know exactly what you want to work on or only know that something isn’t working. We cover the whole of life as well as the specific parts of it — your week and your standards, your work and career, your relationships, how you communicate, the transition into adult life, and what happens at home when a family is struggling.
Every service below runs the same way: the same coach every week, fifty-five minutes at a time, in person in Santa Cruz County, at home across the Bay Area, or by video anywhere in California. Sessions are $130 each, or less when you take a block of four, eight or twelve, and family coaching runs as a three-month term. Pick the one that sounds closest. If you are not sure, get in touch and we will help you work out where to start.

Learn more →Four rooms. We work in three.
A person is a house with four rooms, and most of us live in one and let the rest go quiet. We would rather show you the whole house and be honest about the door that is not ours.
Mental
Decisions, attention, standards.
How you operate under pressure, and the standards you are actually running to rather than the ones you would name.
Emotional
Noticing what you feel, and naming it accurately.
Disappointment and resentment look the same from outside and do not answer to the same decision.
Spiritual
Mindfulness and meditation. Nothing else.
Attention as a trainable skill, with a boring method. No belief required and none taught.
Physical
Delivered by Fox Fitness.
Training, and it is not ours. We would rather name the door that is not ours than pretend the house has three rooms.
