Petalyn is a charismatic and passionate coach (see Training below) who provides non-judgmental, safe space from which to work. Her approach is holistic, meaning that she focuses on the whole person.
"I hold my clients as naturally creative, resourceful and whole. This is such an important principal to co-active coaches that, as a credentialed professional, I am sworn to uphold it. I coach the individual, and in the context of their Big picture. My clients are well adjusted, smart individuals, who are often experts in their field. They come to me to help them excavate what they already know that will help them bring more of themselves to whatever they do."
Petalyn says, we “…naturally recognize, gravitate and respond to the stories that live in our head.” From here, we continuously generate more of the same. The great news is, we can flip that talent on its ear and have it work for us in astonishing ways.
Petalyn's Clients Include:
• Small companies that want to clarify their mission and goals, increase team-spirit and productivity, and effect smoother transitions due to internal changes.
• Couples who want their great relationship to jump-shift into the most passionate and enduring relationship of their lives; to maintain intimacy during the stresses, transitions (including the challenges of a remodeling a home together); to intentionally create who they are becoming together, and design what they stand for as a couple in the world.
• Individuals who are ready to succeed in a huge way; who want to clarify and set personal boundaries; create more time for more of what they want; who want to increase their fulfillment quotient starting today; who are ready to enjoy more healthy, positive relationships.

BOOKS & Articles Usui Systems of Reiki Training 2002-2003
Petalyn has written on the issue of transformation from very different perspectives.
Remodeling Couples, How to Remodel your Home Without Demolishing Your Marriage uses Petalyn’s 10+ years of marriage to a home builder and designer, coupled with their extensive remodeling experience, to identify the essential steps that keep intimacy and perspective intact. Less than halfway into a project, couples often realize that there is a far greater emotional aspect to their project than they had imagined. Petalyn shows how to survive the multi-dimensional challenges and to turn them into a blue-print for practicing the deep alliance needed to endure many of life's unforeseen events.
In Grief toward Grace and onto Glory, A Radical Stand for the Contribution of Grief Petalyn helps readers use the power of their grief to achieve amazing goals and celebrate their relationship in the most profound way possible. There is little that can prepare us for the death of someone we love. There are no practice tries, no re-runs. But grief can prepare us for the rest of our life; every joy and every sorrow can polish our intent toward our own contribution, and for living with passion and purpose.
