Things I Use & Love
I’m often asked about the books, tools, and tech that support my coaching practice. Rather than answering one-off emails, I wanted to gather them here — the things I reach for again and again because they make my work steadier, clearer, and more spacious.
Everything on this page is something I personally use and genuinely love. Some links are affiliate links, which means I may receive a small commission if you choose to purchase — at no additional cost to you. If that’s not your thing, feel free to skip the links and simply take what’s useful.
My hope is that this page feels less like shopping and more like being resourced.
My Bookshop
I’ve always dreamed of having my own little bookstore — a place where every title on the shelf has a story behind it. This is the closest I’ve come so far.
Thanks to Bookshop.org, I get to curate a collection of books that have shaped my coaching, my values, and the way I move through the world — while also supporting local independent bookshops.
These aren’t just books I’ve read.
They’re the ones I return to when I need clarity, courage, perspective, or simply beauty.
If you love getting lost in fiction, learning through nonfiction, or exploring the books we talk about on The Coaching Book Club Podcast, you’ll find them all here — side by side, just like they sit on my nightstand.
Settle in. Wander. Follow your curiosity.
If you choose to purchase through this link, I may receive a small commission — at no extra cost to you. It helps support my work and independent bookshops, and I’m grateful.
Tech That Supports My Business
Behind every thoughtful coaching business, there’s a quiet layer of tech doing the heavy lifting in the background. These are the tools that make it possible for me to focus more on people and less on logistics.
I don’t use a lot of platforms — I get overwhelmed easily — so everything here has earned its place because it genuinely makes my work smoother, more spacious, and more sustainable.
Buzzsprout – where the Coaching Book Club Podcast lives and breathes. It makes hosting and distributing episodes simple enough that I can stay focused on the conversations instead of the tech.
RaeNotes – my go-to transcription tool. I use it to capture the essence of coaching sessions so I can reflect more deeply on presence, patterns, and growth without relying on memory alone.
These tools help me keep my business grounded in connection rather than complexity — which is the only way this work feels good to me.

Resilience Playlist
This playlist is a companion for the messy middle.
It’s for the days when I need to remember I’m strong, I’m soft, and I’m not alone.
Some songs are anthems. Some are prayers. All of them help me come home to myself.
