The person behind the brand.
Margaret combines academic and competitive experience to create opportunities for growth and performance in clients. She understands what it means to turn drive into results, growth into performance. As a facilitator of corporate and team workshops focusing on moving beyond goals and a performance coach with athletes aged twelve through Division I, Margaret fosters the development of strategies using the tools of high-level sport. As an athlete continuing to compete and attain her personal performance goals allows Margaret to apply and hone the strategies and tools of sport.
The coach you have been looking for.
Margaret uses workshops to help individuals discover and explore how they are the athletes of the corporate setting. Having relied upon the skills and strategies she developed during high level sport training as a teenager, Margaret realized the power of the tools of sport in navigating and thriving across all areas of her life. The ability to focus on what drives her and reframing interactions with the surrounding environment meant that she was able to survive and ultimately thrive seemingly impossible realities.
An athlete, competitor, mom of twins, and mental performance coach who used tools of sport to thrive through childhood abuse, chronic illness, and unhealthy relationships to become authentically her powerful self. She helps develop the inner athlete to become a powerful achiever who thrives through growth, not just survive an outcome driven experience. Using high level sport strategies to remove mental chaos, Margaret helps people to reframe their experience. She shares her years of experience with audiences helping them shift from an outcome focus where only “wins or loses” matter to focus of growth.

saying
“P” is absolutely loving every single aspect of being at university so far! We are so grateful for all of your advice the past few years and thankful too that “P” put the effort into truly evaluating all aspects of a college - academics, social life, her polo program - coaching/culture/teammates etc. to make sure it was the right fit for her. I am overjoyed with regard to how well she's transitioned with it ALL so far.

Working with Margaret was a game changer. Her guidance helped both my daughters build confidence, sharpen their focus, and manage pressure in ways I never thought possible. I've seen huge improvements both in performance and mindset, and I couldn't recommend Margaret more highly.

I cannot recommend Margaret enough for any athlete looking to elevate their performance and mindset. After working with her for over a year, she completely transformed my approach to competition. Margaret gave me the tools to build confidence, manage anxiety, and rediscover my passion for the sport. Through personalized breathing techniques, visualization exercises, affirmations, and more, she helped me find what works best for me. Margaret is also an exceptional listener and sounding board, creating a safe space where I could work through mental blocks. As an equestrian, I went from considering walking away from my sport due to fear and doubt, to now thriving in competition and truly loving the experience. I am so grateful for her support and highly recommend her to anyone seeking to improve their mental game.
