Hi, I'm Marcella. đź‘‹
Becoming a Coach
In March 2010, I started sharing my writing on personal development on the internet.
Since then, I’ve worked as a marketing leader at non-profits and early-stage startups—but personal development was always what I considered my vocation.
To explore that vocation, I ran side projects at different times: two different podcasts, a blog, a newsletter, and more.
In my full-time work, my favorite part of the job was always leading a team. No matter the subject matter I was marketing, I gravitated to developing the individuals on my team.
My zone of genius was never necessarily marketing—it was supporting people throughout the startup process.
Here’s what I realized: humans want to grow but they also want to feel supported while they do it. Nobody wants to swim in the deep end.
Stepping back, I discovered I wanted to support many individuals, many teams, to help them all grow into their potential by giving them unconditional support and doing the self-work to fuel the outer work. I also realized that I crave and value authentic relationships and conversations geared towards helping others evolve and succeed.
Coaching is the physical manifestation of my vocation.
After several years of soul searching and formal training, I left the world of marketing to become a coach and to dedicate myself to a new mission: helping people do the self-work to fuel their outer work and realize their full potential as humans.
