    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 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 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.

that everything you said was most important in that moment
