Hi, I’m Sammy!

Living far from home can feel isolating, like you’re out of sync with everything around you. Change and transitions are part of life’s natural cycles, and while they can feel overwhelming, they also hold the potential for growth, self-discovery and a renewed chance to fall back in love with your life! With a little guidance, we’ll work together to help you feel grounded, supported, and at home—no matter where you are.

From London to Sydney and now North Carolina, I’ve collected my fair share of passport stamps, life lessons, and not to mention a down payment for overpriced airport snacks!

Just when it feels like you’ve hit a wall, you’re probably standing in front of a door. Sometimes, that door doesn’t budge right away, and yes, there may be tears, wailing on the bathroom floor and asking yourself in the mirror, WTF is happening. Who am I?! But those messy, uncomfortable moments often crack us open and lead to something new—something we couldn’t see before.

Every big change and move I’ve faced has come with its fair share of challenges—grief, loneliness, homesickness, and that nagging question, “What now?” But those same challenges also taught me resilience, helped me grow, and eventually brought me to a place where I could truly see the possibilities ahead. Coaching isn’t just something I do; it’s the result of those lessons and my journey of reinvention, clarity, and learning to start over (again and again). My friend calls me Sylv (for Sylvester the cat) since I've had over 9 lives!

Now, I use my personal experience of living abroad and navigating big life changes, along with my professional coaching expertise, to help my clients through life’s transitions. Whether you’re starting over in a new country, chasing a dream, or simply trying to figure out what’s next, I’m here to help you move through the uncertainty and create a life that feels meaningful, fulfilling, and true to who you are. And don’t worry, we’ll tackle it all with plenty of kindness, practical advice, and humour along the way!

How I Help

Finding clarity when you’re at a crossroads.

Building confidence to make bold moves.

Creating actionable plans that feel doable.

Turning setbacks into comebacks (because life doesn’t always go to plan).

Make decisions that align with your values and what truly matters to you.

My Approach

There’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to navigating change. We’re all unique, and so are the challenges we face. That’s why I focus on:

Honest Conversations: No fluff, no jargon—just real talk about where you are and where you want to go.

Practical Strategies: We’ll break things down into simple, actionable steps so you can move forward without feeling overwhelmed.

Showing Up For Yourself: Change takes courage, but you don’t have to do it alone. I’ll be here to support and challenge you.

Think of our sessions as a mix of soul-searching and strategy, with a dash of tough love (and humour) when needed!

Let’s Go, Amigo!
