Phoenix Coaching · Coach, riding alongside women rebuilding after catastrophe
I help women rebuilding after a catastrophic injury, illness, or loss of self find joy and purpose again by riding beside them on their journey.
I'm Darci, and I coach from beside. As Brene Brown put it, I'll join you in the pit and climb out with you. I broke my back at 19 and my neck at 56, lost 2 homes to fire, lived in my car and on couches, and rebuilt my life. I serve women who are recovering from something catastrophic - an injury, an illness, a divorce after decades, the loss of a career or a body or a tribe - and have lost sight of the passionate, energetic person they used to be. I help them find the motive power in their lives, the thing that jumps them out of bed with purpose and joy. I'm not done or perfect, and I never pretend to be. I ride beside you because I've been on a Detour like yours and I know the way home.
I'm not a medical professional, therapist, or psychiatrist. I don't diagnose, prescribe, or advise on medication, that's for your doctor. I'm a coaching companion, not a substitute for medical or mental health care. If you're in crisis or thinking about harming yourself, please reach out to 988 (US) or your local crisis line, and to someone you trust.
