Transformational Coaching
Whether in life or in business, change can be daunting. and transformation is a big word!
It can bring cliche images of the single thread unravelling a sweater or the butterfly emerging from the chrysalis completely reborn - and sticky, bewildered and a bit lost.
You likely don’t need a complete life overhaul but it’s no accident that you’re here on my page today.
You’re searching for something and I just might be the one to help you find it.

… I’d love to talk to you.
Do you ever look in the mirror, unable to recognize the face staring back at you, and wonder what the hell happened to the woman you used to be?
You used to have such big dreams…
But you’ve spent your life making everyone else’s come true while yours gather dust in the corner.
You’re at a pivotal moment in your life and you know it’s time for change…
But you tell yourself you’re too old, it’s too late, you don’t know how, you honestly don’t know who you really want to be, and you feel guilty for even thinking about it.
You know there’s so much power inside of you, yearning to be free…
But it’s hiding, stuck underneath years of perfectionistic gunk, of making everyone else happy, trying to be who the world expects you to be.
You’re so grateful for everything you have, all that you’ve experienced…
But you still feel an aching emptiness in the pit of your gut, your voice crying “this should be enough”, while your body whispers, “This isn’t it - I know there’s more”.
If this sounds like you, I have good news…
That ache you feel when you look in the mirror is your life trying to BREATHE. It is the real you trying to LIVE.
That ache is an invitation to come home to your Self.
When you are your true self, free from the weight of the world’s expectations, free from trying to fit yourself into that round hole of perfection, to do things “just so”, everything within you sparkles and shines from the inside out.
And when YOU shine, the people who are meant for you will see your truth and you may just inspire them to find their own.
When you recognize and honor your jewels, that inner treasure chest of beauty and sparkly light; when you take all of your marbles and weave them together into a story that serves you, you will have created a life that is rich with experience and impervious to outside forces.
When you own your truth and your power, YOU get to decide.
Is it scary? YES! Does it take practice? Also, yes.
Is it worth it? Absolutely.
And that’s where I come in - I’m here to help you dig out from the muck, find your footing, and dance your way down the path back to yourself!
Hi! I’m Terilyn McPhee
An unapologetically human, mostly fabulous, annoyingly realistic optimist and a recovering grown-up …
I’m also a certified coach, and I’ve spent more than 3 decades helping women learn to love and nurture their relationship with themselves and to define their own worth.
More importantly, I’m a woman—perhaps just like you.
I’ve worked hard, loved deeply and have a bucket filled to the brim with wonderful memories.
I’ve also made some whopper mistakes, felt the anguish of betrayal, spent years lighting my spark only to let the world squash it because, even while I was guiding others to embrace their own power, I hadn’t yet discovered my own.
Coaching with Terilyn
When you need a Cheerleader in your Corner to get you started, and you want someone to hold your hand, listen deeply, give you tools, and dance beside you as you create the new life of your dreams, I have a coaching option just for you!
This is not about having a perfect life.
It’s about learning to love yourself enough to know that perfect is just a bunch of gobbledegook (a highly clinical term) designed to keep the status quo…
It’s about learning to stand tall in your desires. It’s about taking bold and tiny steps toward a future where YOU are the leading lady in your own life.
You cannot ‘perfect’ your way to a happy life. But you sure can have messy fun on the way there.
