Meaning coaches work with individuals grappling with meaning issues, life purpose and mission, identity; individuals who wish to identify their values and true passions in life; individuals who sense their everyday malaise or depression is at root a problem with meaning issues. In my coaching practice I also work with small groups in workshops and classes.
Creativity coaches work with individuals who are beginning to discover their creative work as well as professional mid-career and seasoned artists and creatives. These individuals might be painters, potters, writers, musicians, film-makers, dancers, actors, artists of any genre. Creativity coaches assist creatives with issues like vision, goal-setting, productivity, blocks and barriers, nurturing relationships, value of self and creative work, pricing, marketing, doubts and tust issues related to the marketplace and their work, etc. In my coaching practice I also work with small groups in workshops and classes.
My name is Pamela Yates, as a professional Meaning and Creativity Coach I help individuals discover, organize and focus energy on their important dreams and goals in the areas of meaning and creativity. To some degree our satisfaction, joy and happiness in life corresponds to our actions towards personal meaning-making and expression of our unique creative self.

the Circle
Honor and acceptance for the diversity of life and belief amongst us is expressed by the universal symbol of the earth circle displayed in my studio. All people are honored and welcome: children, elders, veterans, people of all gifts and abilities, gender orientations, nations, ethnic and ancestral origins, colors, creeds, economic circumstances, people of any faith or none at all. The sacred hoop is mended when all voices are heard in the Circle.
