Philosophy: When we are born a creative light enters the world. As we connect to and reflect our creative spirit our eyes shine with wonder and awe. Some remain connected to their creative light throughout their lives. Others, like myself, have experienced a disintegration of their creative spirit as external voices, conditions, and responsibilities have taken their toll.

Expressing our creativity is crucial at all times of our life. It becomes vital during the 2nd Half of Life as we recognize the importance of expressing purpose and meaning in our lives. During this time, creative expression takes on the same importance as lifestyle and career choices hold.

No matter how dim light, restricting the schedule, or great the responsibility, your creative light can be brought to full luminance through:
  • Exploration of personal creative desires.
  • Choice of creative direction for expression.
  • Focus through a step-by-step process
You can and will be the creative light you desire and were meant to be.
Methods of Working: Coaching is available in person, by phone or by email. A combination of methods can be tailored to meet your individual needs.
Specializations: My involvement in music, dance, weaving, painting, and writing provides an understanding of the challenges experienced by creative people.

Creative corporate leadership and business coaching provide me with tools that can help you in clarifying vision, setting goals and achieving results.

As a certified creativity coach, through the Creativity Coaching Association, I have experience coaching writers, musicians, visual and performance artists, and media artists.
Individual Services: Statement
Workshops: Creative Passage in the Second Half of Life –

Currently hosted as a monthly activity, additional formats are being investigated. Please contact Gloria if you would like additional information.
Training and Experience: Over the past several years I have experienced an intense reawaking of my own creativity. This has brought about a huge shift in my focus toward passionate support of creative development in others. This shift has led me to become certified as a creativity coach. This focus plus the integration of my other work experience provides me with the ability to approach creativity coaching from a place of understanding the challenges and supporting the courage that is required to move forward creatively.

A visionary leader within a large international corporation honed my skills in spotting and developing emerging trends. This included bringing leading edge technical trends into the workplace in the mid 1990’s before they were part of the everyday workplace such as:
  • Virtual teams
  • Online corporate university
  • Corporate coaching
As a former massage therapist, I have learned the importance of integration and balance of body- mind-spirit for optimal creative achievement.
