Who I serve
I typically work with soul-centered entrepreneurs and private clients who are often overwhelmed and overworked, who constantly battle procrastination and find themselves frozen in place, not knowing where to start. I help you get out of the rut and break free of bad habits so you can get back on the path to productivity and fulfillment.
This might be you if…
You feel energized and excited to start a new project, endeavor, or idea and quickly lose momentum and interest beyond taking the first step, and have no idea why.
You have a goal you’d love to achieve, but you aren’t able to see the how and when of each step that gets you there. Without seeing the whole path laid out in front of you, you find yourself unwilling to take the first step.
You have acted, taken big, courageous steps, created some success, only to find yourself frozen, and unable to move forward as big doubts creep in and convince you it’s just not worth it. And those doubts are winning.
You’re listening to that part of you that says it’s safer to wait, wait until you’re more perfect, until someone discovers you, or someone else gives you permission. And now it’s 1 month, 6 months or 12 months later and you still haven’t taken much action forward.
You’re in a dead-end job and have a deep desire to launching your own business… and have no idea where to begin… and at the same time, you can’t wait to begin.
What I know to be true
Anything is possible.
We all have the answers inside of ourselves. Sometimes we need a new perspective and/or someone to help us find them.
If we allow ourselves to let go of the past stories or future what-ifs, and just trust ourselves… that’s where the magic happens.
Be brave, even for just 30 seconds. That’s all it can take to dial that phone number, send that email or approach that person who can unlock the possibilities that can lead you to the work and life you deeply desire.
If we put our mind to it (including our thoughts, emotions, spirit and actions), we can achieve anything.
Why me and how I differ from other coaches
I am an integrative coach. I help soul-centered entrepreneurs and private clients navigate and implement the shifts they want to make, so they can keep moving forward and achieve their goals. I help you integrate your thinking and your doing parts of your brain so that you can create lasting change.
Alongside strategy, I address issues regarding an individual’s world view, or mindset, that often hinders learning and expansion. What I’ve discovered in my years of doing this, and over 2 decades of running my own businesses, is that people need more than just strategy. They need another component and this where I differ. In addition to strategy, I also address mindset issues that often block learning and expansion. The real stumbling blocks show up in a person’s struggle with their emotions and the harsh things they say to themselves, over and over again, each day. I am essentially a guide that helps people navigate the unknowns and natural hurdles that arise so they can implement strategy with a more clear outlook and healthy mindset. This outlook or new perspective creates an aligned/integrated path forward to get people where they want to go faster, without the stress and overwhelm that used to trip them up.
My wisdom is a curation of over 20 years of business/entrepreneurial acumen, a unique ability to make connections most people can’t make on their own, and certifications and trainings to shift unconscious and old patterns. I blend these pragmatic methods with a healthy dose of good old-fashioned raw intuition.
FAQs
-
I work in a way that is very different from other people. I typically work with people 2-3 times a month (for a minimum of 6 months and typically at least 12 months) because transformation takes time and commitment. It takes time for us to get to know each other and it takes time to commit to make shifts and create new habits that will significantly impact your work and your life.
-
There are a lot of coaches out there that do one-off coaching.
With the exception of my bespoke intensives, I don’t and here’s why:
People come to me looking to make a change either in their life or business and usually it’s both. Significant transformation takes time, commitment and investment. I have found that those who want real results need to spend time with me—at least 6 months.
Often, if people are looking for just one session-- and I am not saying this is you—but lots of times, they’re looking for a “quick fix.” I want my clients to achieve sustainable, long-lasting results.
-
Yes. A million times, yes! And, you have to be committed and you will have to do the work.
-
It always depends on what kind of work you are willing to put in. I don’t make guarantees. I actually am not allowed to. You have got to want to do this.
Here are some results my clients have gotten:
Doubled and tripled their service rates and product prices
Greater confidence and competence in selling and marketing their businesses
Went from 0 clients to serving 15 in several months
Successfully pivoted business offerings in response to pandemic and significantly increased revenue
Smoothly transitioned careers from corporate to running their own business
Successfully launching and selling wholesale and retail products
Achieved promotions
From single to engaged in 1 year
Increased creativity
Restful night’s sleep
Improved health and vitality
Have a “life’ again
Even if it’s not directly related to work or business, some people find that after we have worked together for some time, they have stronger communication with their significant others and more fulfilling personal relationships. Clients tell me that they are more confident, positive and happier, and are getting a better night’s sleep.
(I know this is probably not the answer you’re looking for, but being more creative and more successful tends to help with anything that’s been holding you back over the years.)

First, let me ask you:
How has "going it alone" worked for you so far?
Doing this yourself doesn’t work. They don’t teach us in school ways to get past our overwhelm and burn-out, or how to overcome our emotional stumbling blocks that keep us from moving forward and expanding our business. People need help, guidance, accountability and support as they navigate the ups and downs of living and working.
-
First, it does take time to make changes and do this work.
And, change is worth it. You’re going to have to invest something for change to happen and usually it’s money and time.
You’re going to have to put in some time but the time that really creates results is the daily stuff you don’t even realize you’re doing because your changing on such deep levels.
It takes investment of time or energy or money to make any kind of big transformation. You know that. Nothing happens without that. And, we will have to spend some time together on our one-on-one calls. And, you will have to do some work.
But, really what I’ve seen with my clients is that even on weeks where they didn’t put in the work, it’s the subtle shifts from daily stuff that is most impactful. Often, they’re not aware they’re making these daily changes because they’ve started to transform so deeply. That’s where the real work comes in.
-
It’s pretty immediate for a lot of people and it really depends on where you are and where you want to go. Deep, homerun results take anywhere between 120-180 days.
-
Let me start my answer with a question. How motivated are you?
Because the people who get results fast are just tired of living the way they’ve lived or doing it the way they’ve always done it and they go all-in. It really depends on you.
This is not a quick-fix program. If you’re looking for a magic pill, like you’ll just transform overnight, there isn’t one.
My clients are tired of trying the “next new thing” to create the results they want. They no longer want to just “try” random bits and pieces from “here” and “there.”
-
Absolutely, yes. And, you will have to do the work.
-
It’s not spending money. It’s really investing in you and who you want to become.
Too often in this world, the way we look at money is: “I’m spending. I’m spending. I’m losing! And therefore, if I can get it for free, then more the better.”
Yes, I can piece or superglue my life and business together forever, for free and I can go to every free e-book, free training and never get the support I need. And I can always be teetering along.
When I can really invest in myself, I move faster, I’m grounded and I do some of the work.
Investing is taking care of yourself. You’re worth it. It’s the only way to be a leader.

Founded and own a successful handbag business since 2005

A bit more about me
I’ve been an entrepreneur for almost 18 years, first as an independent archivist for art and fashion collections in New York, and then in 2005, I started Paige Hamilton Design, Inc., a successful handbag design and manufacturing company. Being an entrepreneur for over 20 years has brought a myriad of business expertise and lifestyle experience to my active coaching practice. Owning and running successful businesses has helped me understand all aspects of manufacturing, design, sales, productive business practices, the "ins" and "outs" of art and non-profit organizations, plus practicing exquisite self-care. More importantly, I learned that the clearest path to success is to maintain a healthy mindset. Along with graduating from Coaches Training Institute, I am also certified in EFT Tapping and Spiritual Response Therapy (SRT), so I can help my clients quickly clear blocks that prevent them from achieving the business and lifestyle they desire.
And on a more personal note…
I have a MA in History of Dress because I love learning how practical culture and art affects society and vice versa.
I love to travel and particularly enjoy urban locales. I’ve lived in Denver, Boston, San Francisco, London, New York, and Los Angeles, in that order. Equally, I require the ocean and nature for optimum living, and I consider the beach my spiritual center.
I’m a big believer in the power of manifestation, creating our own realities, and empowering ourselves so we can overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles. I personally overcame a big obstacle after a snorkeling trip in Hawaii. I became paralyzed—both legs and my left arm. I was hospitalized for a week when my breathing became affected, baffling the doctors when their battery of tests yielded no diagnosis. Thankfully all the symptoms mysteriously reversed themselves after about 8 weeks. Although at the time it was quite scary and full of unknowns, I promised myself that if I could ever walk again, I would run a marathon. Almost exactly one year later, I returned to Hawaii and completed the Honolulu Marathon.
When I am not in the office, you may find me hiking, doing yoga, stand-up-paddle boarding, checking out film, music, or art shows, and helping lost & abandoned pets find homes.
I live with my husband and our animal circus currently consisting of 1 dog & 4 cats.
