About Merizon Coaching

My Story

In April 2019, at the age of 46, I was diagnosed with advanced cardiovascular disease. This came as a complete shock—despite living an active life, eating well, feeling fit, and never struggling with weight, my medical reality told a different story. My diagnosis was complex but, unfortunately, not uncommon. I was pre-diabetic, had dangerously high inflammation levels, significant arterial plaque buildup, and a host of genetic predispositions that put me at risk for heart disease, heart attacks, strokes, high cholesterol, and even Alzheimer’s.


As a passionate long-distance and mountain runner, I had always seen myself as strong, fit, and healthy. The diagnosis shattered that identity. I felt devastated, confused, and like a stranger in my own body. How could this be possible? I had done everything “right” according to conventional health wisdom. Fear consumed me—would I live to see my kids graduate? Walk my daughters down the aisle? Celebrate my 50th birthday? Continue living the life I loved?


You may not relate to the fear of heart disease, but you’ve likely felt the fear of being marginalized, the fear of losing autonomy, the fear of not being truly seen or loved, or the fear of losing your sense of purpose.


This experience forced me to reexamine my understanding of health—not just physical health, but also emotional and spiritual well-being. I made small but intentional changes to my diet, prioritized quality sleep and daily movement, and focused on nurturing relationships that offered support without judgment or shame.


It took me years to realize that moments of fear, uncertainty, and discomfort are actually gifts. They force us to pause, reflect, and gain clarity on what truly matters. My goal is to walk alongside you in this process—to help you uncover the meaning rising within you, waiting to be set free. To rediscover your purpose, regain your sense of control, and embrace a life of deeper fulfillment.

My why

Speaking and Motivational Events

My lived experience bridges the paradox of being both outwardly healthy and inwardly fighting silent battles. As a lifelong athlete and biologist who faced a shocking diagnosis of chronic disease, I know firsthand the power of resilience, reinvention, and courage. On stage, I share not only the science and strategies of change, but also the deeply human journey of loss, discovery, and renewal—reminding audiences that true strength is found not in perfection, but in the willingness to transform.

Developing a plan that's created by and meaningful to you

Honoring your capacity for change

Judgement, shame, assumption, or "fixing" people

customizable programs

Customized Program - Life Transition

Life changes can shake us — even when they’re chosen. Identity shifts, health scares, new roles, endings, beginnings…

Sometimes the ground moves before we feel ready.


This 90 day, customized coaching experience is for those seeking a partner to walk beside you in that in-between space — where things feel uncertain, but something inside you knows you are meant for more. Together, we quiet the noise, make sense of what’s changing, and reconnect you to the values, strength, and purpose you can already feel calling forward.


Through meaningful reflection, honest conversation, and small but powerful intentional steps, you’ll rebuild confidence, rediscover who you are becoming, and create your next chapter with clarity, courage, and integrity. This is your time to rise into the life that fits who you are now — and who you are growing into.

Leadership Development and Motivational Speaking

This highly adaptable offering is designed to meet a wide range of needs—from a single impactful speaking engagement to a comprehensive, strategic leadership development experience spanning one or multiple days.

For organizations seeking a more in-depth approach, we offer fully customized leadership development programs. These can be structured as single or multi-day events focused on transformative topics such as distinguishing Authority from Leadership, mastering Self-Management, clarifying and committing to Purpose, engaging diverse perspectives, and strengthening the capacity to navigate and sustain productive tension within systems. Whether you’re looking for inspiration, practical tools, or long-term leadership growth, this offering can be tailored to meet you where you are—and take you where you aspire to be.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at merizoncoaching@gmail.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

While both life coaches and therapists help individuals improve their lives, therapists typically focus on addressing mental health issues and past traumas, while life coaches focus on helping individuals achieve their goals and improve their overall well-being.


My approach to goal-setting is to help clients identify specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART) goals. I also work with clients to create an action plan and provide accountability to ensure they stay on track to achieve their goals.


Confidentiality is of utmost importance in my coaching practice. I adhere to the International Coach Federation's (ICF) Code of Ethics, which includes strict guidelines for maintaining client confidentiality.
