Hi, I’m Peg McDermott
Certified Life Coach, Author, and Fellow Traveler
Change can be messy…
How do I know this? From my own experiences of navigating the messy and unpredictable nature of change. I have had my own share of triumphs and traumas, and, through the process of transforming my pain into peace, I have learned that self-love is powerful medicine.
In the past, I experienced a profound sense of loneliness. Wanting what I wanted, I often felt like something was wrong with me. It was exhausting to continuously navigate rules and expectations that didn’t align with my own values, leaving me feeling like I didn’t fit in. Today, I embrace my differences and see them as strengths that allow me to bring my unique form of healing to the world.
I also believe that healing doesn’t happen in a straight, linear process, but rather a circular one, and I am honest with my clients about that fact. I know from personal experience that quick fixes do not offer lasting healing.
The truth is, my coaching approach is holistic, interconnected and all-encompassing. When we work together, we will explore all aspects of your life, from career goals to spirituality to relationship challenges, and core wounds that hold us back. I believe that everything in life is interconnected, and by pulling on one thread, it can have an impact on another.
As a powerful woman, I know that my strength is in service of something greater than myself. I am here to inspire and fuel change in the world, and I know that I am not alone in this mission. My gift is cutting through the noise to uncover what truly matters, and then offering practical, no-nonsense advice and support. I’m here to help you navigate life’s challenges with clarity and compassion.
My own transformation journey began decades ago. After navigating personal challenges that left me questioning my worth, I discovered that healing happens when we challenge our limiting beliefs and reconnect with our authentic selves. In 2005, I took a decisive step to deepen my understanding of this process by experiencing coaching firsthand. The profound shifts in my own life—from self-doubt to confidence, from people-pleasing to boundary-setting—inspired me to pursue professional training. Through the Coach Training Alliance, I developed the skills to guide others through their own journeys of self-discovery. What began as my personal healing path evolved into a passionate commitment to help other women reclaim their power and live authentically.
This work is my calling. I find joy in helping others navigate scary and unknown territory, and I believe that courage and connection are key to creating change. As part of this community, you will have access to resources and inspiration to support you on your journey. When you work with me, you’ll get all of my love and support.
Let’s join forces and unearth the hidden gems that make you, well, YOU.
