Mary Gorman
LIFE & CAREER COACH
Living with intention is about embracing your life as an active participant rather than a bystander. It's deciding that each moment is an opportunity to align your actions with your deepest values and aspirations.
Instead of letting life happen to you, you shape it deliberately, infusing purpose into everything you do.
Imagine your life as a garden. Without intention, seeds fall haphazardly and weeds can overrun it.
But when you garden with purpose, you select the plants thoughtfully and nurture them with care, then you
can cultivate a garden that brings joy and fulfillment.
With a background in Human Resources, talent development, and facilitation training, I provide a personalized coaching experience designed just for you. In a confidential space, we’ll reflect on what’s working in your life and explore the challenges you wish to overcome. I work with clients who are committed to personal growth, expanding their self-awareness, and showing up powerfully in their lives.
Through our work together, you'll gain clarity, confidence, and a renewed sense of direction.

Empower
Your Growth
Together we can craft a personalized map for your journey. With intention every step is a conscious move toward where you truly want to be. It's not just about big life goals but also the small everyday choices that define who you are.
We can explore consciously choosing actions that align with your values, staying present in the moment, and crafting a life filled with purpose and meaning.
Just as caring for my garden fills me with joy and fulfillment, I hope that through our coaching journey, we can nurture and cultivate whatever helps your soul flourish with purpose.
What Is Coaching?
Coaching is a partnership between you and me. It is a process to help you identify your goals, develop a plan, and take action to achieve them. The process typically involves a series of one-on-one sessions to inspire and motivate you to maximize your personal and professional potential.
Companion planting in gardening offers a powerful metaphor for life coaching. Picture a garden where each plant is not just surviving, but thriving, thanks to the thoughtful arrangement around it. Certain plants, when paired together, boost each other's growth, defend against pests, and enrich the soil. It's about creating a balanced environment where each part supports the overall health of the whole.
Similarly, life coaching is about fostering the right conditions for personal growth. Just as a gardener carefully selects companion plants to cultivate a thriving garden, a life coach helps you identify the relationships, habits, and environments that nurture your development. They guide you in removing negative influences and planting seeds of positivity and productivity.
In my professional career, I was fortunate enough to have mentors who have guided and nurtured my growth and inspired me to want to do the same for others.
