has 30 years of local, national and international experience in helping people in career and life direction. She also interviews and awards people of all ages in Life Leadership Service Awards and for her television show, Imagine Worcester and the World. Virginia believes every human being has the capacity to be and do more than ever imagined, but need support and experienced coaching in order to
cultivate core talents. Virginia coaches at three levels of career development: finding a job to make ends meet, finding a career and claiming purpose for vocational calling. Virginia's coaching process provides resources for personal and professional renewal to help her clients live and work from their mission while achieving balance, fulfillment, integrity and sense of meaning and purpose. We give clients the confidence to withstand the stress and resistance of living in a culture that disavows those standards. Every human being has the capacity to be and do more than we ever imagine, but we need support and experienced direction in order to cultivate our core talents and unique calling. We recognize all human beings in their uniqueness, need and capacity for transformation by clarifying vocational calling and its application to daily life. However, challenging situations often stand in the way of such development. Clients are provided compassionate guidance to celebrate the joys of daily life, while living through life’s challenges and crises. We coach people to draw on and integrate their sense of mission—along with their gifts, skills, practical experience, and intuitive knowing to express themselves and act with confidence and authority. By training and experience, we affirm the uniqueness, capacity and achievability of life for the better as a foundation upon which to face life's challenges and conflicts.

“I am a trained facilitator in the life review and reflection program for people in their wisdom years called, “Coming to the Center of the Labyrinth.”
Last year I immersed myself in this program. I gave myself the gift of time to ponder deep spiritual questions that led to three new life’s goals that embodied energy shifts and changes, newfound creativity, relevancy, and legacy. As I traveled the metaphorical labyrinth’s path in my minds’ eye, I descended into the world of inner thought and reflection. At the center was a quiet place of calmness and rest: a place where my soul revealed goals for my wisdom years pathway. When I resurfaced, I brought new learnings and decisions with me. Six months later, I joined a retreat that supported people who had completed the program and who wanted to sustain their initial effort. I continued to nurture my soul’s growth, living in a constant state of gratitude. And I added goals that included fun and play. At the end of the day, my story is about resilience of my human spirit and the unfolding of my wisdom years maturation. This could be your experience, too. Please read the following description, below, Coming to the Center of the Labyrinth. If it stirs something within you, consider joining me for a free session.”

Coming to the Center of the Labyrinth: An Individual Program for
People in their Wisdom Years
In every life there is a story…a story of joys and sorrows, love and heartbreak, accomplishments and struggles, seeking and finding, questioning and learning. This program introduces a program for men and women who have been life-long seekers and learners. It addresses the next stage of life in personal and spiritual growth — discernment, consolidation, and integration of ways to give to others from the vast knowledge, wisdom, and experiences which have led to maturity. The program is designed to be an individual process. Meetings are weekly for 15-20 sessions. Topics include a holistic approach to body, mind, emotions, and spiritual questions which may present themselves in this phase of one’s life journey. Modalities include self-reflection, meditation, active imagination, expressive art, journaling, and affirmation of one’s sacred journey in life. A retreat experience will be offered at various times for further exploration and deeper insight into the particular opportunities being presented to each participant. The facilitator will hold an initial interview before the program begins. The program fees are $100.00 each session and a commitment to the program is required after the initial free assessment meeting. Retreat fees are charged separately.
