LET'S DO DOING
DIFFERENTLY
This is High Performance Coaching
REIMAGINED.
Because success is not achievement at all costs.
It's about what you really want and the courage to create it.
Hi, I'm Mary
Here to help you reclaim your dreams and create success on your terms.
I’m your gentle, hard-ass high-performance coach.
That means I challenge you, hold you to your highest vision, and refuse to let you settle—but always with heart, humor, and deep respect for your process and wisdom.​
Success Isn’t Supposed to Feel This Hard.
​You’ve done everything you’re “supposed” to do. ​
Read the books. Taken the courses. Climbed the ladder.
​
And yet . . . here you are. Spinning, second-guessing, wondering why you’re still stuck and unfulfilled.

​Big dreams sound exciting.
But let’s be real: they also come with big obstacles.
Fears that keep you up at night — overthinking, worrying.
Self-doubt that turns into procrastination, then paralysis.
You tell yourself you need more time, clarity, certainty while letting distractions and busywork rule the day.
It's beyond frustrating, right?
And then there’s that inner voice — the one that whispers:
"You should be grateful for what you already have."
"Who do you think you are?"
"You're such a fraud. Don’t kid yourself."
Dreams are tricky that way.
Because the dreams that feel like the reason you’re here can also feel impossible to reach.​
But the reason you're stuck isn't that you’re not capable.
But the reason you're stuck isn't that you’re not capable.
You’re stuck because big dreams ask us to grow in ways we didn’t expect. ​
And growth? It’s messy. It’s uncomfortable.
It’s full of moments where you question everything.
​
So, what if you saw this moment as part of the journey, stopped stopping and started leaning into your big dreams with a fresh perspective?
That's where I come in.
​I don’t just help people set bigger goals.
I help them do doing differently.
Because high performance isn’t about doing more.
It’s about doing what actually matters—
in a way that feels aligned, sustainable, and deeply fulfilling.
My brand of high-performance coaching is the intersection of deep internal work and powerful action taking.
Can you let yourself dream again—without self-judgment shutting it down? Can you stay in the game when things get hard and overwhelming?
Can you commit to yourself the way you commit to all of the important people in your life?
If you’re ready to stop circling and start creating, I can help.
Through high-performance coaching, we turn impossible dreams into lived experiences over and over again.
Mary
People hire me when
They’re done waiting. Done circling. Done telling themselves someday.
They’ve realized the answers aren’t in another course, podcast, or book—but deep inside, waiting to be unlocked.
They’re ready to stop shrinking their dreams to something more "reasonable."
They want to unlearn the conditioning that told them they were too much, too weak, too selfish, or too late. They’re ready to reclaim their inner authority, wisdom, and trust in themselves.
They know they’re meant for more—but fear, doubt, and old patterns keep pulling them back.
They want to wake up the powerful creator within and activate the potential they can feel but haven’t fully stepped into.
They’re ready to do it differently—without burning out, selling out, or betraying themselves in the process.
What Clients Are Saying
“My wiring around fundraising and resources has completely changed, which resulted in more funding than ever.”
Through my work with Mary, I've become confident in my ability to lead effectively. I set better boundaries, delegate more, and have been able to let go of control when appropriate. I now have a system for keeping focused on what is important to me and how to accomplish my goals each week. Mary is skilled at listening and zoning in on what you need. She is tough and kind, just the qualities you want in a coach. She asks the honest questions, helps identify your old stories and limiting beliefs, and creates new systems and rituals that guide you in becoming the human you’ve always wanted to be.

“She’s got a way of lighting a fire under your tush that’s less drill sergeant and more straight-talking guardian.”
Mary's got a way of planting seeds in your mind that sprout into money-making, life-changing ideas. She helped me do the things in my business that I knew I needed to be consistently doing but had been avoiding, and it really paid off—I signed about $30k of business in a month that I had thought I wouldn't bring in much of anything, thanks to Mary's encouragement and systems for following up with contacts. She's motivating, she's inspiring, and she's got me buzzing. Most of all, she's PRACTICAL—the systems we created together were all very do-able and yet still impactful. So, if you're looking for a coach who can turn your "meh" into "mighty," Mary's your gal.

“I was struggling to break free of years of conservative ‘corporate thinking’ and grow into my new role as a bold entrepreneur.”
Mary led me on that journey by breaking old habits of scarcity mindset, perfectionism, putting myself last, etc. and forging new ones. Her style of leading with appreciation and support encouraged me to have difficult conversations I had been putting off—with myself, my staff, and others—which allowed me to lead with purpose and intentionality. Our work together has also improved my relationships, health, mindset, and more. As a former VP at a Fortune 10 company with amazing leadership development infrastructure, I can say with confidence that resources like Mary are a rare gem. She was invaluable to me as a coach and confidant.

“My part-time coaching income grew from $8K to $63K and my professional and personal confidence grew exponentially.”
My professional and personal confidence grew exponentially as she reflected back to me my own strengths, abilities and capacities to create, dream and pursue. Our partnership challenged mindsets and beliefs that held me back and kept my business limited. The practical and intuitive systems Mary shared with me were indispensable. As someone historically intimidated by finances, I particularly benefited from Mary’s Business Tracking Sheet. It changed my life by completely eliminating fear from the process. I loved and thrived from her ability to navigate the coaching partnership with humor, perspective and warmth.

“Mary helped me transition from healing mode to action mode. From day one, Mary was always my champion."
With Mary’s help, I came to recognize that one of the biggest ways I sabotage my own work is by continuously striving for more growth and undervaluing every positive step I’ve made along the way. This practice created the feeling of constantly being overwhelmed. Mary helped me see that the drive I had to achieve sometimes meant I looked past little victories and jumped ahead to the next thing. Now, I work differently. I have learned to pause, reflect, and express gratitude not only to others but also to myself for how far I’ve come. I make a “little victories” list every few days so I can be reminded how far I continue to go.

I had the opportunity to work with Mary through the Wise Coaches Collaborative and it was nothing short of a transformative experience. I came to the WCC to strengthen my coaching practice and grow my client list, and I emerged with not only techniques, tools, and best practices, but an enriched sense of the purpose and meaning of coaching.

Her ability to blend insight with actionable strategies is unparalleled.
