The more you nurture a feeling of kindness, the happier and calmer you will be.

— Dalai Lama

Hey Bear Coaching is dedicated to the idea that taking some intentional time to be a kind, self-aware person gives you a better shot at health and happiness in this life. It also makes it more likely that you seed health and happiness for people around you—especially when you inhabit positions of power.

The People I Work with Share this Vision.

I believe public servants deserve and need intentional coaching support at every developmental stage of their career. The lessons we learn at the start can become rigid stories that we don’t change, even when the situation demands it, or ones that impose on others. No one should get a coach for the first time when they are an executive. And because I also believe that these stories get stored in us somatically, it is key that public servants develop body awareness and strong health habits. I can help you develop this awareness.

 

  • A healthier, kinder, happier cohort of people making the world a better place

  • A world with healthy, well-rounded public servants who model self-awareness and good management behaviors 

  • A progressive civic society that practices the values it espouses in public policy, particularly equity and empathy

Figure out the next right thing to do.

Hey Bear Coaching is for Public Servants.

Method

  • Hey Bear’s service offerings are designed to ground you in being kind, being present, and being aware as you move through the world

  • We work together to find the right mix of services for you, whether it’s just coaching, just yoga therapy, or a mix of the two

What You’ll Get

  • More intentionality - you’ll be more in control of their decisions, behaviors, life

  • Clarity - more grounded understanding of why you’re doing one thing instead of another, acceptance of interstitial periods

  • Happier - overall, more of the time; not ALL OF THE TIME, but on the whole, more of the time, over longer periods
