Meet Heather

Hi, I’m Heather Darnell, a certified life coach and organization fanatic. I’ve decided to share my story in the hopes that it will inspire others to reach out for support as they navigate their own journeys.

Life coaching isn’t exactly traditional, but it might be exactly what you need to get out of that funk. Learn more about my story, mission, and methods here. Then give me a call to schedule your free 30-minute life coaching session!


My Story

After 50 years on this planet, I’ve been through a lot. I have been married; I have been divorced. I have been in long-term relationships; I have been single. I have had kids; I have lost kids. I’ve had my family walk away from me and I’ve had to walk away from my family.

Life is like that — you can never know what’s coming next. But you can lean into the bad times and lean into growth.

Through the toughest times in my life, I’ve also had some amazing experiences. I’ve fostered over 50 children through DCFS and loved getting to know each and every one of them! I also live with alopecia, which means I get to explore my identity through colorful wigs and headcovers.

I am the “Jane-of-all-trades” with decades of experience in entrepreneurship, spirituality, and turning life’s lemons into sweet, sweet lemonade. My mission is to help people in Chicagoland and across the country reconnect with the lives they want to be living.

I believe that inspiration and support should be available to everybody. That’s why I offer affordable, flexible life coaching and organization services.

I've curated my prices to be affordable towards everyone! The following are my packages that I offer:

$400 a month for two half hour sessions a week

Or

$300 a month for a one hour session once a week

Give me a call to learn more about my methods.

I also have Alopecia, an autoimmune disease that causes you to lose all of your hair. I lost all of my hair 11 years ago, and instead of seeing it as a disaster I was able to turn it into something fun! My experience with alopecia, codependence, and struggling relationships has inspired me to love the life I live and work toward a better future every day. Thanks to my own challenges and survival, I’m now able to share my tips and organizational skills to help others improve their lives.

Among other things, I am a Christian. Does that mean I’m going to use our sessions to shove religion down your throat? Absolutely not. Does it mean we can explore the ways God works in your life together? Yes — if you’re into that kind of thing! My life coaching services are designed to meet you wherever you are. Whether through spirituality, self-development, or financial stability, I want to help you achieve the peace and happiness you’re seeking.

Life is hard. But it’s a whole lot harder when you do it on your own. Let’s talk about all the ways we can shift your perspective and learn to love the life you’re in.

Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters,[a] whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. 4 Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything


-James 1:2-4

What I read when I see that is when life is hard through a party because you are not lacking in anything. God is with you and you are growing..

My Process

I want to make affordable mentoring, consultation, and coaching available to everybody. Who doesn’t need occasional empowerment and support? If you want to take that support to the next level with in-depth life planning and organization, let’s talk.

If we aren’t, no worries — I would love to connect you with another professional who could empower you.
