Entrepreneurs embark on this path hoping their visions become realities but may encounter unexpected setbacks along the way, its path often winds through treacherous terrain, resulting in rollercoaster emotions, from celebration when milestones are attained to frustration at experiencing setbacks.
Entrepreneurs typically operate alone in business environments.
Navigating decisions challenges, and setting strategic directions alone may prove daunting and can quickly lead to feelings of isolation that lead to burnout or loneliness if left without guidance and objectivity.

Amy Shearer is one of the coaches that we found this month and we did a little interview with her. She impressed us with her positive personality and dedication.
She spent a decade in retail but faced burnout in her 40s, prompting a shift towards coaching focused on nervous system health. Today she helps clients combat burnout and prioritize self care with her 90 day Healing program.
She incorporates somatic work to address issues like anxiety and stress, but what makes her approach stand out is her intuitive, flexible nature. Rather than relying on a fixed methodology, she creates a safe, trusting space for her long term clients to work on issues such as people pleasing and overthinking, resulting in significant life transformations.
She customizes her approach to cater to each client’s specific needs. She is a certified Life and Success Coach and she is trained in various modalities like NLP, EFT, breathwork, and somatic stress release. Here is what she said.
Meet Life Coach Amy Shearer:
Name: Amy Shearer
Pillar: The Spirit, The Mind
Who is this coach for: Anyone who wants to get rid of their people pleasing tendencies, connect deeply with their real self, stop overthinking, and get the right tools to prevent burnout.
How they can help: By using various tools and techniques like NLP, EFT, Breathwork, Somatic Parts Integration, and Somatic Stress Release, just to name a few.
First of all, how are you and your family doing after these Pandemic times?
We are good!
We feel, like many, that the pandemic offered an opportunity to reevaluate our lifestyle, specifically where we were living and how we were spending our time.
We moved in November of 2020 from Brooklyn, NY, to Kingston, NY.
Kingston sits between the Catskills and the Hudson Valley.
The majority of the shifts that we needed to make revolved around adapting to a lifestyle in the country and making new friends.
After almost three years, we have found our flow and feel a part of this community.
How did the coronavirus pandemic affect your clients? Did it affect you at all?
For my clients, many of them were experiencing a heightened sense of fear.
I was very fearful initially, especially during the lockdown in NYC.
Reflecting on it now, I see it as a time of deep sadness and fear that taught incredible lessons about resiliency, the power of hope, and our need for connection.
What are the biggest lessons that you learned in this pandemic?
The timeframe of the pandemic aligned with my spiritual awakening, and there were so many lessons!
Wow!
And in the end, it all came down to learning to trust myself and to surrender.
Release the control of what you think should happen, and trust yourself that all will work out.
Getting to that place takes some serious work, and I’m now opening myself up to helping others find this place of peace.
The Origin:
Tell us about you, your career, how you started with your coaching career?
I grew up loving fashion, from dressing Barbie in the latest style to going to the mall with my mom, I was constantly learning about trends and immersed in retail.
After graduating from college, I first went into finance, became a Peace Corps Volunteer, became a French trained chef, and finally landed in retail.
Ahhh, home!
Over 15 years, I experienced every level of role on the store side of the business and spent ten years in executive leadership roles.
The job was exhilarating, and many companies I worked for became like family to me.
And then, in my early 40s, something started to shift within me, and I found it harder and harder to find the energy to keep up with the pace of retail.
No matter the role, retail is challenging.
It’s one of the top industries for burnout.
I had no idea how to support my stress and endless to do list.
And it brought me to complete emotional and physical exhaustion.
In July 2019, I left my career and took six months to begin the healing process.
Then, in January 2020, I became a certified Life and Success Coach and was certified in many modalities.
Initially, I focused on coaching individuals on their careers and potential career pivots.
Over time, it became apparent that I needed to teach the tools I was learning to support my nervous system and emotional health.
I created a 90 day Healing program for 1 on 1 clients in early 2022, and it took off!
I’m now bringing what I know back into the retail sphere in the form of workshops and, in the short future, a leadership program built around healing and nervous system health.
What was your biggest obstacle that you had to overcome in your life that made you who you are today?
As an only child raised by a single mom, I prioritized being “a good girl” and tried to do as much on my own so I wouldn’t be a burden.
Early on, I became a people pleaser, and I have since learned that I’m a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP).
I picked up on everyone’s emotions and learned ways to adapt to avoid confrontation.
Eventually, this is what led to my burnout.
This behavior hindered my overall well being, career, health, and relationships.
I worked with a therapist and multiple healers to de condition the ‘people pleasing’ and to learn to honor my needs.
Shifting this behavior and using somatic tools focused on the nervous system and emotional regulation healed my burnout.
The Coaching Style:
How do you innovate with coaching your clients?
I love this question because I didn’t realize that I was innovating with them. Ha!
I think it all comes down to responding to their needs.
My work includes somatic (body) work, and the techniques used to help with anxiety, stress, and emotions depend highly on the person.
Recently, after a few clients came to me with the same struggles around time management, I realized its connection to burnout, which sparked an entirely new aspect of my work.
Now, I’m integrating productivity tools and habit creation into my 90 day program.
What’s unique about your coaching approach?
Due to the nature of the healing work that I share, I don’t become attached to a strategy or methodology for each session.
This approach requires me to listen to my intuition, to be adaptable, and to connect with each client deeply.
Most clients in my circle are long term clients who have been with me for over six months.
We work on people pleasing, overthinking, and overgiving, which requires establishing a container of deep safety and trust.
When we have safety, significant life transformations occur.
What benefits do your clients get after working with you?
Clients regularly comment that they feel a deeper connection to themselves and feel empowered by the tools I teach them to integrate into their everyday lives.
I’m here on this planet to teach and share what I know from my healing experience and provide healing resources.
Do you use any specific tools to be efficient with your clients?
I have been certified in multiple modalities, including NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming), EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), Breathwork, Somatic Parts Integration, and Somatic Stress Release.
Mostly, I use one component of these modalities in each session with a client, depending on their needs.
The Impact:
If you had a super megaphone that, when you speak into, the whole world will hear your message, what would you say?
It’s OK to rest!
What is the greatest lesson you have learned in your life?
The greatest lesson was also the hardest pill to swallow. Gulp.
When I left my Vice President role in 2019, I left angry and frustrated at everything about retail.
I blamed retail for all of my unhappiness.
I needed to realize that while there may be untenable practices within the retail sphere, it came down to how well I supported myself and honored my needs.
And herein lies what most of us need to learn.
We are responsible for creating our happiness.
Your final thoughts?
Nothing to add.

Linda Lalicata is one of the coaches that we found this month and we did a little interview with her. She impressed us with her expertise and confidence.
She started with a background in biology and teaching, but soon she discovered a passion for psychology and chose life coaching as her path, guided by the advice of her counselor cousin. She says that choosing that path was probably the best decision of her life. Overcoming self doubt and the emotional scars of a rocky family relationship, she embarked on a path of personal growth and education, eventually becoming a successful coach.
She has a flexible approach, tailored to each client’s needs, incorporating techniques like NLP and positive psychology to create not just helpful but also enjoyable coaching sessions. She works mostly with women helping them gain self confidence and feel empowered so they can achieve their career goals.
She empowers her clients by uncovering their strengths and core values, enabling them to overcome obstacles with ease. Here is what she said.
Meet Life Coach Linda Lalicata:
Name: Linda Lalicata
Pillar: The Spirit, The Mind
Who is this coach for: Women fo want to gain self confidence and feel empowered so they can achieve their career goals.
How they can help: By using the ICF method and various tools and techniques like NLP and positive psychology, just to name a few.
First of all, how are you and your family doing after these Pandemic times?
Everyone in my family is doing very well.
My husband had the virus last summer, but recovered very well once he went on medication.
We were fine during the quarantine because we are homebodies anyway.
The hardest part was not being able to go out to dinner, because enjoy that.
I am a pretty good cook, so I just cooked more.
How did the coronavirus pandemic affect your clients? Did it affect you at all?
I did have one client during the pandemic, and she was not a very social person.
The pandemic was almost like a blessing to her because she did not have to make excuses to her parents about preferring to stay home with her children rather than go out with friends.
In my case, I was busy studying.
I was still training online with iNLP Center, and I had not yet graduated from FIT.
The timing was perfect, I had no excuse not to study since we couldn’t go anywhere!
What are the biggest lessons that you learned in this pandemic?
I learned that if you are given the gift of time, no matter where it comes from, use it wisely.
Too many people squandered it by becoming lazy and depressed about having to stay isolated.
I practiced my instruments, worked on my studies, worked out more, and finished art projects.
Yes, the pandemic was terrible, but you should always try to find the bright spots in the darkness.
The Origin:
Tell us about you, your career, how you started with your coaching career?
It is a long story, but I will shorten it up the best I can.
My background is biology and I teach at Bronx Community College.
The students there have problems that run deeper than just having academic issues.
I wanted to learn how to help them overcome some of their struggles, like time management and concentrating on their studies rather than wasting time and energy in the wrong way.
I decided to go back to school for psychology and graduated two years with top honors from Florida Institute of Technology.
I loved it so much, I wanted to do more with it, but did not want to become a therapist.
My cousin, who is a counselor, suggested life coaching.
I have never regretted it furthering my education and feel it was one of the best decisions of my life.
I am still busy trying to build my client base, but I do have too terrific clients right now.
What was your biggest obstacle that you had to overcome in your life that made you who you are today?
I had a very rocky relationship with my family that left me a bit emotionally scarred.
My husband is great and always encouraged me, but I did not believe in myself.
After high school I did not know what I wanted to do.
I thought I wanted to be a vet, but I am far too emotional for that career.
I would have been crying all of the time!
I worked mostly as an administrative assistant, which can often be a thankless job.
It took a long time, but I finally began to realize I was pretty smart.
As a child I was compared to my sister, who was a great student.
I just gave up trying to compete and relied on my looks instead.
I thought I was dumb, but I was actually so ambivalent about school that I was coasting along and not trying at all.
I was popular with my teachers and fellow students, but I was no scholar.
The Coaching Style:
How do you innovate with coaching your clients?
I work primarily with women who are trying to further their careers, but have challenges with family, friends, and other life challenges.
I help them uncover their strengths and core values so they can build on them, so they get ahead quicker and more successfully.
I help them find their inner warrior so they can overcome challenges with grit and grace.
I’m also looking to expand my business to include B2B, working with human resources to help them improve their work environment.
I have heard from far too many assistants that they don’t always feel respected by their superiors, that they are not given the information needed to do a good job because their boss has a chip on their shoulder.
That is no way to run a company, and yet many big name firms still hire people that are insensitive, arrogant, and crude because they know how to bring in the big bucks.
It leads to a revolving door that bleeds money.
Assistants will only take so much before they walk.
It is very costly to do a search, and then train new employees.
There is a better way, train employees from the top down proper communication skills and create a more nurturing environment where everyone wants to do their best, not the bare minimum to get a paycheck.
What’s unique about your coaching approach?
I try to tailor my coaching approach to each client.
I am trained in the ICF method, but I have found it is not right for every client.
Some prefer a more back and forth approach rather than being questioned.
I don’t know if it is unique, but it works.
I use NLP when appropriate, as well as positive psychology techniques.
I think other coaches try to be too much like therapists.
I think the sessions should not just be helpful, but fun.
I know I have done my job well if a client comes to a session stressed and practically in tears and they leave laughing and smiling and feeling better about themselves and their lives.
What benefits do your clients get after working with you?
They feel empowered and confident.
They learn how to use their gifts to be more successful and they become more resilient.
If they face a setback, they can take it as a learning curve, not a failure.
Do you use any specific tools to be efficient with your clients?
I do use some techniques that I always use when I first work with a client.
I have them take an assessment online to discover their strengths.
You would be surprised how many people don’t know their gifts.
I also have a method to help them find their core values.
One of the main reasons people get so stressed at work is that their company’s values don’t align with their own.
If someone is very empathetic and their office is cutthroat, they will never be happy there.
I also know numerous NLP strategies that can be quite effective.
The Impact:
If you had a super megaphone that, when you speak into, the whole world will hear your message, what would you say?
That women are powerful and smart and deserve to be heard and respected.
They should be paid the same salary for the same job as a man, get the same amount of respect, and they should not have to change their personalities to please other people to get ahead.
What is the greatest lesson you have learned in your life?
This is not an easy question.
It might be that if you don’t believe in yourself, you won’t get anywhere.
Your career won’t move forward, your relationships will suffer, you won’t ever reach your full potential.
It doesn’t matter what others think, if you don’t have confidence and the ability to make mistakes and learn from them, you will stay stuck in place.
Your final thoughts?
Yes, I do have some final thoughts.
I think that the world of coaching is growing and needs to have some regulation.
While I am not sure if we need to be licensed the same way as therapists do, it would not be a bad idea to need certification before starting to practice.
Right now, anyone can say they are a life coach.
They keep their fees extremely low, and many people are taken in and end up wasting money.
It is one of the reasons that many people have negative views about the industry.
If someone is serious about coaching they will take the necessary steps to getting training and certification.

How did the coronavirus pandemic affect your clients? Did it affect you at all?
I don’t know of anyone that wasn’t touched by this pandemic in some way.
It made many people feel isolated, depressed, disempowered and scared.
It’s been a trying time for everyone.
Since my clients are therapists, I know that they have seen an exorbitant number of people struggling with mental health more than ever before as a result of the shutdowns, mandates, etc.,
As empathic souls, this of course, weighed them down as well.
We’ve all learned ways to be proactive and empowered about our own health.
It is my belief everyone can be empowered in the same way.
With applied knowledge, much of it ancient wisdom from many other cultures, there is less opportunity for fear to take over one’s life.
This is a lesson I learned myself, as a cancer survivor.
Thankfully, I meet my clients virtually over zoom so the pandemic was of no effect to my coaching.
The Origin:
Tell us about you, your career, how you started with your coaching career?
It was my brush with death in 2004 and 2005 as a thirty year old that compelled me to begin helping other people as a mentor and coach.
It started with my own family and friends.
Since leadership, mentoring and teaching had always been something I did as a volunteer, it never occurred to me I could make money at it.
Nor did I try.
Before cancer, I was working full time as an office executive, in a relatively comfortable position.
I was also writing, and I had been published a few times.
Other than that, I volunteered at churches and other non profits.
As I slowly picked up the pieces from my grueling ordeal with cancer, I realized that my previous profession as an “office executive” was less one of choice and more by default.
I knew I didn’t want to go back to office work, but I didn’t have confidence to believe I could make money on my own either, so I didn’t try at first.
As I began to do my own inner work, it became apparent that I was struggling with my own mindset issues.
From money mindset to self worth and confidence, there were many layers of limiting beliefs and sabotaging patterns I had to uncover and address.
In the meantime, I took gigs as a website designer and business strategist.
I also took odd jobs and driving jobs, all to keep afloat financially.
In one visit with my Naturopathic doctor, I mentioned that I’d like to be a coach but that I didn’t have any credentials.
He challenged me to think of my life experiences as all of the credentials I could possibly need.
I wanted to, but I wasn’t ready.
I felt I needed to do more learning and healing first.
I sought out coaches, mentors, spiritual advisors and read a lot, journaled and took online courses.
I’m not proud to say it but I made the mistake of thinking of every conversation as a coaching one.
I told myself that as long as I wasn’t telling anyone what to do, it wasn’t unsolicited advice and that it was “practice.”
I meant well but I’ve since learned better and have never coached without permission since.
Ironically, it was when I stopped assuming and committed instead to helping people that were indeed looking, my coaching practice finally began to grow.
My clients are helping practitioners, therapists, coaches, heart centered professionals that need and want to reclaim their life from frantic busyness and feeling overwhelmed.
They want to re align their profession with their soul’s purpose or create something new altogether.
Sometimes they unlock a new dream while in session with me, or they see a new way they want to expand their thinking.
Either way, they come away from a session with some kind of insight that begins to change everything for them.
More shifts happen between sessions and it’s always exciting and rewarding to hear about those in subsequent sessions.
I integrate as many modalities as I can in my coaching sessions, to the degree that it is appropriate and a client is comfortable.
I always provide options and ask permission.
Everyone deserves the right to say no or I’m not comfortable.
If my clients were asked to describe how they feel with me as their coach in one word, it’s my sincerest hope that the word they choose would be “held.”
While I often ask them to step outside their comfort zone and do something edgy, I always want them to know I have their back.
I am here to serve them.
My encouragement and challenge to them is not limited to session time either.
I provide special messages of support and various resources that I think will benefit them between sessions as well.
One “unconventional” thing I ask my clients to do is earthing or grounding.
This is the practice of allowing your bare feet to touch the earth.
There is a lot of science behind the notion that as electrical, light beings, we need to be recharged, like batteries, and earthing or grounding is one way we can get a recharge of those ions that we’ve lost to stress and other normal life events.
Everyone I’ve invited to do this “practice” (on their own) reports several things almost immediately: less anxiety, more peace, more ability to observe the patterns and seasons, more of a sense of connectedness to the whole and to the Creator, and less inflammation and physical pain.
Another practice I encourage them to do is to listen to binaural beats or solfeggio frequency to complement their self care practices, assist them in meditation, visualization and manifestation exercises.
I share these practices with my clients because I’ve benefited from them as well.
As best as I know how, I embody what I teach.
As someone has said though, it’s possible to be a work in progress and a masterpiece at the same time.
That’s me and if you’re still reading this, that’s you as well.
Other than being present between sessions, my approach to coaching is one of flexible structure.
I took many courses where some of the fundamental rules were “never ask a yes or no question” or “Never suggest anything. Let the client figure it out.”
While I believe in leading a client to a place of gentle reflection, I reject this traditional thinking of making a client guess and never asking a yes or no question.
Sometimes that traditional wisdom is simply inappropriate.
If I know an answer to a question, why should I dance around it and let them figure it out?
I don’t like it when people do that to me.
My feeling is, if you know just say it already!
I don’t believe in mental gymnastics, especially in a coaching relationship.
There are times where I do redirect, but it’s because I feel there’s more behind the question.
In that situation, I find that if I stay silent long enough, my client will come to an insight they need without my direct answer to the question.
This flow isn’t anything that I could create as a template because it’s all about being present to them in that exact moment.
I call that energy exchange in a session or a state of flow.
All I do is direct the flow during that time.
The way I see it, as a leader, my responsibility is to identify which tool my clients need from me at each session and make that available to them.
I’m focused on being a conduit of energy and support they need in that session.
Sometimes I teach, sometimes I mentor and sometimes I coach.
Coaching is but one method of leadership and support.
The others are just as valid and sometimes more appropriate.
What was your biggest obstacle that you had to overcome in your life that made you who you are today?
The biggest obstacle I’ve had to overcome in life was learning how to find and use my own voice.
I had to learn how to create and keep personal boundaries, how to stand in my own power and truth even when everyone around me didn’t or doesn’t understand or agree.
I was raised not to question authority or talk back to someone in a place of authority.
I had to learn how the opposite is true.
As individuals we must always ask questions and think critically, especially of the people that have a title of “authority.”
They are to be held to that much higher standard.
I also found that sometimes the one I have to talk back to the most is myself.
I’ve discovered patterns of thinking or limiting beliefs that before my inner work, I accepted as truth.
I didn’t challenge the thought or belief.
I didn’t look for evidence.
I “didn’t talk back” and that cost me.
This is one reason why I emphasize the importance of listening to one’s intuition with my clients.
I have a belief we often minimize the wisdom of our inner world, and we miss out on what’s possible or walk into a trap that keeps us stalled.
The Coaching Style:
What benefits do your clients get after working with you?
After working with me, my clients find more peace in making decisions because they can be confident that they’ve aligned or are aligning their actions with their soul’s purpose and vision.
They feel empowered to believe they can create whatever they want in their life, without being held back by old habits, patterns or mindsets.
Best of all, they take that sense of confidence and empowerment and produce results.
They change their lives in some way that is significant to them and often their health also improves.
There’s nothing more rewarding than knowing that someone I’ve helped feel empowered is inevitably going to make an even bigger impact on the people in their world as well.
It’s what I call the ripple effect.
The Impact:
If you had a super megaphone that, when you speak into, the whole world will hear your message, what would you say?
My message to everyone is that you have more power, promise and potential than you may realize.
You must understand and reclaim your personal sovereignty in every area where someone or something may have made you feel disempowered.
You are a soul, having a human experience.
Inner work is the most important work you can do because it has the potential to connect you with your Source in the way you were intended to be.
That connection with the divine is the key to identifying and walking in your unique purpose.
No one can bring to this world what you are equipped to bring.
No one.
Your final thoughts?
None.
