whole life coaching tending to the soul

DeAnn Jordan, M.A.

My own path has led me to understand that all of life’s challenges must be met with insight and intuition. Only by viewing our lives holistically, seeing the interconnections between each of these vital areas and tending them with what the heart, mind, body and soul yearn for, can each of us find the balance we all long for today. I am far from completing my own many paths that often lead in spiraled labyrinths! But with a longer view, each of the immediate challenges we face in this moment can be put into perspective, can be woven into the story, the foundational myth, that is our lives. Deep engagement with myth, literature, poetry, symbology, philosophy, world religions, history, depth psychology, and many other subjects, has given me the opportunity over a lifetime of study to recognize the common archetypal patterns in my own and many others’ lives. Seeing these patterns in your life may help you as well.

“Follow your bliss. If you do follow your bliss, you put yourself on a kind of track that has been there all the while waiting for you, and the life you ought to be living is the one you are living. When you can see that, you begin to meet people who are in the field of your bliss, and they open the doors to you. I say, follow your bliss and don’t be afraid, and doors will open where you didn’t know they were going to be. If you follow your bliss, doors will open for you that wouldn’t have opened for anyone else.”
– Joseph Campbell

If you are feeling unfulfilled in your career, your creativity, or your personal goals, I can help you identify the causes and push through them to help you find your center in the whirl of life. As a lifelong educator, published writer, scholar and mentor, I have helped many people of all ages discover their passions, achieve their goals and find their deeper truths. Through our active collaboration, I can help you find your way toward a life of balance between career, family and relationships, personal growth and matters of the spirit, while revealing the personal myth you live by.

Through our collaboration, we will discover the goals you most want to achieve, large or small, in any area of your life. I have many methods and tools to guide you, but my primary role is to listen and help you develop your own unique plan of action, for you are truly unique. My goal is to help you find your path toward whatever it is you want to achieve, and it begins with listening.

Incorporating a mythic perspective into your plan can enhance and deepen your commitment to your goals as you begin to see them as part of a larger story. Then, you can integrate more practical application of other skills to help you focus, manage your time and accomplish your goals far more effectively because they are driven by a deep sense of purpose.

Often what we need most is someone to listen, someone whom we can trust, with whom we can build community, who will encourage and help us discover our best, authentic selves. Whatever your unique path is, whatever approach will best fit you, your personality and schedule, I am here to help you discover your authentic self, identify your goals and accomplish them.
