From anxious autopilot to authenticity.

Empowering you to Start living connected and step into your calling

Have you ever felt stuck on autopilot?

Automatically ignoring your own needs or suppressing emotions, saying yes to things you don’t want to do to please others, powerless and a victim, all for acceptance and approval, but still lonely.

Perpetually stuck in your head, doubting your decisions, second-guessing yourself, dealing with imposter syndrome and procrastinating because you’re terrified of making a mistake.

Constantly exhausted and burned out from living like a hamster on a hamster wheel, just going through the motions with a mile-long to-do list and everything you have to do to perform for your worth or value, yet still unfulfilled.

You deserve to live free from the overthinking overwhelm full of present joy and hope for the future.

Hi, I’m Kaley.

Your imperfect but intentional, over-caffeinated hype girl.

If you have felt this way, you have come to the right place and you are not alone. I know what it’s like to live with fear and anxiety, constantly chasing approval and my next achievement lost and never feeling free. I learned joy the hard way during ministry school, figuring out how to be myself and focus on being present instead of living on autopilot.

I completed my Ph.D. in psychological/counseling studies and certification in life coaching to start Joie de Vivre coaching so that with my education, life experience, and relationship with Jesus I can provide practical tools to help others feel alive, whole, healed, free from living life inauthentically on autopilot, and begin making courageous decisions that spark authentic joy, with purpose instead of procrastination, direction instead of distractions, clarity instead of confusion, focus instead of frustration, and thriving instead of striving or just surviving.

Are you ready to go on your joy journey?

you’re Ready to become the most joyful version of Yourself, Here’s how you Start.

1. Schedule a call so I can answer any questions and you can decide if the joy journey is right for you.

2. Create a plan that is individualized to you and begin to address the areas of your life where you feel overwhelmed.

3. Leave each session with a toolbox that will empower you on your joy journey so that you can stop feeling overwhelmed.

Testimonies of Hope

  • I learned of Joie De Vivre Coaching from a friend who raved about Kaley and encouraged me to reach out. I had hit a point in my life where I was mentally exhausted from feeling like a prisoner to my own thoughts, overthinking and people pleasing. From the initial call, Kaley made me feel understood, seen and confident that we would work through my goals together. Kaley gave me the most insightful feedback and practical tools so that I could get to where I needed to be mentally and emotionally. I am forever grateful for the wisdom Kaley imparted on me during our sessions and I have felt freer and stronger since. I took notes during every session and have found myself often referring back to what Kaley shared with me as it has helped reshape my mind positively. Kaley made me feel important as she checked in often in between sessions and always encouraged me to reach out if I needed support. In this last year, meeting with Kaley has been a highlight for me and I feel like a new woman since learning to free myself of the overthinking and people pleasing.

  • "I had trouble with work and direction which was causing a lot of stress and discouragement. I decided to reach out to Kaley to help me understand the situation better. Our session was incredibly eye opening as she took me through my strengths and identified where my frustrations, lack of motivation and stress came from. After identifying my strengths and key drivers I have felt empowered and enabled to understand and take responsibility for my needs in order to get them met in a healthy way so that balance can be restored. Our session was incredibly fruitful, and I am so thankful for her knowledge, wisdom, empathy and skill."

    -Rosie C.

  • "Recently, I took a break from working, and life coaching with Kaley was a key experience during this time. Kaley saw me through a strengths based perspective that was so helpful in creating a personal toolbox for my life. I always think back to the time she said, "Amazing, that is viable," when talking about my dreams because such a simple sentence transformed the way I saw what was possible for my own self. Her expert direction and encouraging nature made it a safe place for me to open up about where I'm at and where I'd like to be in the future. I'm 10/10 confident in recommending Kaley to anyone who is considering life coaching because of the leaping, invaluable gains it will leave them."

    -Amazing G.

  • “PRIOR TO WORKING WITH KALEY THERE WERE ASPECTS OF MYSELF THAT I NEVER QUITE UNDERSTOOD. BUT WITH HER COACHING, I FEEL MORE AWARE OF HOW I’M DESIGNED AND WHY I DO THE THINGS THAT I DO. NOW I AM BETTER ABLE TO IDENTIFY MY NEEDS IN PROFESSIONAL AND PERSONAL SITUATIONS THAT WILL LEAVE ME FEELING EMPOWERED AND FULL OF LIFE!”

    -Alisha H.

  • “I WORKED WITH KALEY ON THE STRENGTHS ASSESSMENT AND I LEARNED SO MUCH ABOUT MYSELF. SHE EXPLAINED EACH STRENGTH TO ME AND ASKED FOLLOW UP QUESTIONS TO HELP ME DISCOVER NEW FACETS OF MY PERSONALITY. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE WHO WANTS TO HARNESS THEIR STRENGTHS TO BE MORE PRODUCTIVE AND CREATIVE IN ALL ASPECTS OF LIFE.”

    -Hannah P.

  • “BEFORE I STARTED MEETING WITH KALEY, I WAS IN A PLACE OF FEELING STUCK AND THAT MY LIFE WAS NOT MOVING FORWARD HOW I WANTED IT TO. AFTER WE STARTED MEETING SHE HELPED SHOW ME WHAT MY STRENGTHS ARE AND HOW I CAN USE THEM IN MY LIFE NOW AND TO START MY FUTURE. SHE HAS HELPED ME GET A PLAN AND AN IDEA OF HOW TO MOVE FORWARD IN MY LIFE.”

    -Leah T.

With the help of the Lord I began to understand that meaningful things in life aren’t always comfortable. Authenticity is uncomfortable. It is uncomfortable to say no, ask for what you need in relationships, and not people-please. It is uncomfortable to rest in a world that puts hustle culture on a pedestal forever feeling like you’ll get behind in life if you don’t perform. It is uncomfortable to celebrate growth and redefine achievements on your terms instead of the unrealistic perfection of never failing. But it is so worth it once you begin to live the joy-filled life you’ve always dreamed of.
