Our Approach
The Story of Driftwood (& Shelly Wiggins)
“Remember your journey…so that you might know the righteous acts of the Lord” Micah 6:5.
“Things sometimes seem to get worse before they get better.” That’s what I often tell my clients at the beginning of a healing journey.
In the course of one’s lifetime, there will be waves and storms. Just as driftwood is tossed about, sometimes being dashed against coral reefs in its journey from shore to shore, so it is that we are tossed about on the journey of our lives.
But even driftwood comes to find a home on the shore…a chance to breathe, to soften and to be molded.
Imagine a place where the silence is loud. Where you can stop the madness of a crazy schedule. Rest. Breathe. Hear the voice of God speak to your soul.
Imagine a place where you can speak your mind and get some answers to life’s toughest questions.
Imagine a life of following His will. Feeling His love. Walking with Him.
Imagine the possibilities. Begin the journey.

Meet Kathy Wood
Certified Life Coach
Hello, I’m Kathy Wood. As a Certified Life Coach, I am ready to walk beside you with encouragement, support, and hope as you move towards setting attainable goals.
You do not have to navigate the next chapter of your story alone. I’m here to listen, support, and suggest next steps!
Coaching can support grief work.
Loss (not only through death) is one of life’s most common experiences, yet the least acknowledged or discussed. This may be a loss of a job, relationship, marriage, hopes, dream, or personal independence. The process is navigating the transitions, like starting strong or ending something well. Even downsizing assets or family dynamics (think empty nesters), or adapting to any kind of change.
Creating a safe space where people can be coached, individually and in groups, is very important to me.
Do you know someone who could benefit from extra one-on-one support?
Committing to just 6 weeks of focused growth can spark lasting positive change and provide a great adjunct to your current therapy or self-care routine.
Let me help navigate your path to a more balanced life, one day at a time.
Now offering virtual and in-person coaching services. YOUR FIRST SESSION IS FREE, just call Kathy at (248) 219-5610 or click on the link below to connect via email.
Why I Am A Coach:
I have weathered many storms in my life that have made me braver, smarter, and stronger – both inside and out. I am now at a stage of my life where I desire to teach BOUNDARIES and BALANCE to others searching for PEACE and HARMONY.
I believe that sharing my time, talents, and gifts with others is essential for a balanced and peaceful life.
What I Love Most About Coaching:
I appreciate the fact that coaching is a partnership and not a traditional expert-client relationship. The client is the expert of their life and makes the decisions on what is worth doing, while the coach supports them by providing tools to reach their desired goals and ensure successful change.
For the last 20+ years, I have helped facilitate workshops, conferences, and even a few 12-Step recovery groups. Serving is one way I have found more peace & meaning in my life.
