About Wendy Weiss
I love the power in words and stories. How people express themselves and use language to create their understanding of the world is endlessly fascinating to me. Having studied and taught writing and literature, I practice using a keen sense of observation and being in a perpetual state of beginner’s mind. I love discovering what’s hidden in plain sight.
​
Coaching is a natural extension of my truest way of being. I listen actively and intuitively to people’s stories and their narratives about themselves, hearing deeper energetic threads. Metaphors, turns of phrase, and personal lexicons that crop up in conversation reveal what's moving beneath the surface, close to the soul. I hold these sacred offerings in reverence, awe, and genuine curiosity.
​
In daily conversation, we don't often get to experience this level of being seen and heard.

What becomes available when you feel truly heard
that everything you speak is acknowledged, honored, and reflected upon

I've been intrigued by and curious about human development throughout my entire professional career. Beginning with my graduate studies in education and my later work in nonprofits that supported retired and senior volunteers and the spiritual development of children, youth, and adults, I've been in service to human potential. In 2017, I folded life coaching into my professional skills and began working 1:1 with people seeking personal growth and transformation. A year later I learned of a modality called Biodynamics and began to study, practice, and provide this offering. As we continue to grow and evolve as human beings, individually and collectively, my greatest desire is to spark and support each person's innate potency. I believe it's vital that we take the space to slow down, explore what matters most to us, and settle again into being who we really are. We need all of us.​​
