Description
Hi! My name is Monica. I am an Authenticity and Embodiment coach. I combine intuitive coaching with cognitive behavioral therapy tools and somatic practices to help my clients come home to, and embrace, their most authentic selves. I coach high performing men and women through big transitions in their lives, so that they can create a life on THEIR terms, walking in their truth.
My approach to coaching is designed to create impactful and lasting change, as I guide my clients to listen to their internal compass, empowering them to be their own agent of growth and change. I offer 1:1 coaching in a 6-month container, as well as in-person and online embodiment workshops.
My journey of self-discovery began in the midst of an extremely unhealthy chapter of my life. After living with burnout for many years and working 85+ hour weeks in the television industry, my body completely shut down. I was forced to take a long sabbatical from work, which led to the most transformative and healing period of my life. That sabbatical began with: chronic fatigue, panic attacks, hives, gut issues, insomnia, lack of boundaries, depression, an unhealthy relationship with alcohol, and equally unhealthy personal relationships. My body knew before I knew that it was time to make a change in my life. Months of self-discovery work with therapists and coaches, inner child healing, and a complete overhaul of my diet, led to a profound sense of peace and clarity. With that clarity and a deeper connection to myself, I walked away from an entire career, implemented much-needed boundaries throughout my life, and walked into a new chapter of Monica as a self-trusting and self-loving healer.
I believe that what sets me apart from other healers and coaches is my ability to get right to the heart without the fluff, yet still bring a lightness and levity to this work. My coaching is gentle, yet penetrating and provoking. By bringing both sides of myself to the spaces that I create, and in doing so being my authentic self, I give my clients permission to be themselves as well. Yes, I’ve been through hard times and done the hard work, but I am also someone who smiles and likes to have a good time. I believe that healing can be both heavy and fun. I see people for who they are and meet them where they are, and sometimes that means bringing some lightheartedness to the work that I do.
As your coach, you can expect someone that will hold you accountable and be your co-creator in building a life on your terms. I will equip you with tools and insights that will allow you to build the self-awareness and self-trust necessary to gain clarity and create a life guided by your truth, and I will hold space for your emotions without judgement. I will ALWAYS guide you back to yourself, because this journey is yours, not mine.

Testimonials
“As someone who takes pride in her ability to be coached as well as coach others, Monica talked about tools I can use to recognize and resonate with my own energy first before using external methods of validation, as well as methods of rebalancing when I feel I am not living in my truest alignment. Her knowledge of human design propelled me forward in terms of working through giving myself permission to live within the means of my design, and what it means to honor our energetic footprint. Her energy is as soft and light as a pillow yet holds you there on the spot and acknowledges every part of you. I learned so much about myself, life, and who I am becoming from just one session with her.” – Monica Franaszek
“After coaching sessions with Monica, I started using my voice in a way that helped me leverage what served me and everyone else around me. Now, I have reached a point where I am getting whatever I want, and I’m manifesting it faster. I see this materialize in my relationships, my work, and the teams and individuals I coach. I am more aware of how to honor what I want, which has led to more self-care. She shed a light on blind spots that I didn’t see prior to our session.” – Mike Manuel
“My session with Monica was incredibly refreshing and exactly what I needed in a time of stagnation. For a while, I could not figure out what kept holding me back from my true power and lack of inspiration. Self-sabotage had been a recurring theme for me this past year, but the universe gifted me with Monica’s wisdom, guidance, light, support, and powerful magic to help me overcome my block.
I felt completely safe, heard, and accepted throughout my session. She created a comforting space where I could be fully open and vulnerable with her. We had covered some pretty deep childhood wounds/trauma that had resurfaced, affecting my current relationships and how I viewed myself. Every word that she spoke was absolute gold! Even though I have been in the self-growth space for some time now, Monica’s coaching was the inspiration I was looking for.” – Christal Grace Lim
“Monica helped me navigate through challenges, not only using her knowledge on attachment styles and inner child work, but by sharing her life experiences which validated my struggles and created a safe space where I felt seen, heard, and understood. Her coaching didn’t tell me what to do, it empowered my inner voice to come through and brought me clarity…I not only gained clarity, but simultaneously gained confidence knowing that the answers were within me all along. If you’re looking to step into your power and authenticity, she’s your gal.” – Asia Hilario
