Hello, I am Amber (aka: Dr. L)
YOUR Soft Skills COACH
I grew up in a small town in the mountains of Pennsylvania, where I learned the value of strong connections. I carry that spirit with me, seeing potential in others and helping them uncover it for themselves.
With a doctorate in Higher Education Leadership and over 17 years of experience, I guide individuals and teams to reach their potential. I'm also certified in Gamification, using innovative techniques to deliver coaching and training programs for corporations.
BUILD A LIFE OF FULL CONFIDENCE
Transitioning back to work, starting a new job, changing careers, moving to a new city, or aiming to get ahead? Whatever your goal, YOU CAN and YOU WILL!
We all have soft skills waiting to be awakened. As your guide, I'll help you reshape challenges, uncover strengths, and become the badass professional you know you can be!
MY STORY
Coaching others to realize their potential was my life's passion before I knew coaching existed. I began my career mentoring students in Higher Education, and I bring that same passion to my clients as a soft skills coach. The lessons learned from ​working in Higher Education for 15 years, earning my doctorate in Higher Education Leadership, and being a mother, allow me to bring a wealth ​of life experience and an understanding of ​transformation to those I coach.
MY CORE VALUES
At Dr. L's Pep Talks, we believe in personal growth and commitment. We value that every person begins at their own pace and time, and we are dedicated to growing alongside our clients, as we embark on this journey together. As your coach, it is an honor to guide you to reach your goals and unlock your full potential.
