ABOUT
Stephanie Allen
Hi, I’m Stephanie Allen. I am an International Coaching Federation (ICF) certified Professional Coach. In 2016, I transitioned from my successful and fulfilling corporate project management and communications career into my true calling: 'Whole Life' coaching, mentoring, and helping others visualize their goals and overcome the perceived barriers to achievement.
My natural resourcefulness, open-minded curiosity, and compassionate energy attract people looking for insights, deep-level conversations, and practical solutions.
I am a Southern CA native who has returned to CA after living in Boston for 30 years and Nashville for 6. I am happy to be back and coaching from South Orange County virtually nationwide.
I enjoy working with a variety of clients, and I appreciate that everyone is at a different level of self-awareness. Some clients know what they want to discuss and how they want to run a session, and some clients come to the discussion with only the desire to explore and see where the conversation takes them.
Together, we explore their current circumstances, influences, and experiences and what their intuition is telling them.
Clients turn to me because I offer them a pragmatic combination of coaching, consulting, and project management skills while supplying effective tools, resources, and expertise to help them comfortably tackle life’s challenges and transitions. I love seeing the smiles when their insights start flowing, hearing the exhale of relief and understanding, and watching the transformation as they put it all into satisfying action.
