My Philosophy:
I believe that delving deeper, going beyond the surface, helps us discover truths about ourselves: untapped strengths, old fears, and even new goals that we can use as building blocks for professional and personal success. And with each small success, comes the energy to work toward something greater.
I want to help you do that! I’ll use a candid yet caring approach to help you identify what’s holding you back, create a plan to move forward, and celebrate your achievements.

Meet Heidi
I am Heidi Tyson and am a Certified Professional Coach (CPC) who has earned her Associate Certified Coach credential. I am a leadership instructor/facilitator, and have been a Talent Management Officer, manager of high-powered teams for 14 years, and a former newspaper journalist.
I am a small-town, Midwestern girl who moved to the big city and took on all that it had to offer. I surrounded myself with amazing friends and passions, including traveling, wine tasting, and cooking. I continue to learn about myself daily through my relationships, service to others, challenges, and spirituality.
I have a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Journalism with a certification in Women’s Studies. In addition to being a Certified Professional Coach from iPEC, I am an Energy Leadership Index Master Practitioner, certified in Gallup Strengths, and a Hogan assessment facilitator.
For the past 21 years, I have taken countless leadership and professional development classes, including Dale Carnegie Leadership Training, Disney Leadership Training, and American Management Association managerial training.


What Coaching Is:
As a coach, I work in partnership with you to empower you to realize your potential, reconnect with or discover core values, work through and re-strategize fears or past habits, and create smart action plans to achieve goals or address important issues.
What Coaching Does Not Do
Provide Therapy: A licensed therapist works with a patient to fix past dysfunctions prohibiting them from succeeding in life, while sometimes addressing and managing mental illness.
Act as a Consultant: A consultant is an expert in a field and offers his or her agenda to fix a problem.
Serve as a Mentor: A mentor uses his or her personal and professional experiences to tell a client what to do to be successful.
Stand in for a Friend: Although loving and well-meaning, a friend sometimes offers personal advice and might be working from his or her own agenda, objectives, and judgment.
What Can I Offer You?
My direct and candid yet caring approach demonstrates to you how serious I am about helping you achieve your goals and move past issues. I believe that going “deeper” helps us discover new truths, strengths, fears, and potential to use as building blocks toward those goals. And when you achieve small personal successes, you quickly will want more success. I want to help you do that!
