“Inner peace starts here”

Helping burned out professionals understand how they’re uniquely designed to work, rest, and relate to others—so they can cultivate greater well-being, deeper connections, and a more sustainable way of living and leading.

Hi, I’m ALISA

I am a military spouse, life coach and occupational therapist. I am a Thai American expat based in Japan, available to meet with you virtually or in-person in Okinawa. After years of working as an occupational therapist and a healthcare administrator, I’ve recognized the prevalence of burnout in broken systems. Mindfulness, meditation and coaching have been life-changing tools that allow me to not only manage, but prevent burnout. I hope to spread awareness through sharing resources and helpful content while offering personalized coaching to support your journey toward mindful growth and inner peace. 

As a mindfulness and mental wellness coach, I am here help you understand how you’re uniquely designed to work, rest, and relate to others—so they can cultivate greater well-being, deeper connections, and a more sustainable way of living and leading. You don’t have to figure life out alone. The time is now to put yourself first. Consider applying for coaching, participating in the Calm Corner Circle or checking out free resources, including guided meditations. Thank you for visiting my website.

I look forward to joining you on your journey to create a calm, meaningful, and authentic life in your corner of the world.

Let’s do this together.
