Hi,

I AM HONOR (ED)!

Hi, I’m Honor — and it truly is an honor to have you here.

If you’ve landed on this page, you’re probably standing at a crossroads:


✨ Craving a fresh start
✨ Feeling drained by what “used to work”
✨ Or holding onto a dream that refuses to die

Wherever you are, you’re not alone — and you’re not stuck.

I help women like you get back in the game — reigniting what’s been sidelined, rebuilding your momentum, and creating a life that aligns with who you are now. This is your winning season!

.

Ready to step into what’s next? Let’s create something beautiful — together.

Psst...



I’ve been where you are...

Change is hard. Even the good kind.


For the past 30 years, I’ve been raising four amazing humans. I’ve packed the lunches, cheered on the sidelines, and probably signed more permission slips than legal documents.


Now, they’ve flown the nest and started their own grown-up adventures. It’s beautiful. It’s bittersweet. And honestly? It can feel a little... quiet.


So now what?


I’ll be real with you — it can feel lonely. But it doesn’t have to stay that way. Because this next chapter? It’s not the end of your story. It’s the beginning of a new one — and it can be downright magical.


You’re not starting from scratch. You’re building from wisdom. From experience. From fire-tested strength.


Want to find out how everything you’ve walked through (yes, even the messy parts) has been preparing you to create something meaningful — something

spectacular?


Let’s do this together.

"God’s dreams for you are bigger than you think —

but they only come alive when you say yes in faith."

Is this you?

💫 You miss the vibrant, healthy version of yourself — the one who had energy, fire, and joy… and you’re ready to feel like her again.

💫 You’re seeking God’s will for your life, but wonder if your dreams are divine whispers… or just wishful thinking.

💫 Deep down, you know you were made for more — but you wrestle with whether wanting more makes you ungrateful or selfish.

💫 You’ve spent years caring for everyone else, and now you’re not even sure what you want anymore.


If any of this sounds like your heart on paper…

✨I see you. I get you. And I’ve got you.

Life Coaching - Do You Need It?

Life Coaching vs Therapy

“You have one life and your success depends on how you think. Do you think life is happening TO you, or if life is happening FOR you? - Honor Garrett

What is Life Coaching and How It Differs from Therapy

Life coaching is a dynamic and forward-focused practice designed to help individuals create a vision for their future and achieve their personal and professional goals. Unlike therapy, which often delves into past traumas and psychological issues, life coaching is about harnessing the power of the present to build a successful future. As a certified life coach, I help clients rewire their brains for success, develop new neural pathways through consistent tasks and habits, and formulate strategic plans to reach their aspirations.

The Power of Vision and Strategy in Life Coaching

Life coaching involves several key processes:

  1. Creating a Dream Vision: We start by defining a clear and compelling vision for the future. This vision acts as a roadmap, guiding clients toward their desired outcomes.

  2. Rewiring the Brain: Through neuroplasticity, we can reshape our brains. By practicing new habits and thought patterns, clients can build new neural pathways that support their goals.

  3. Consistent Actions and Habits: Small, consistent tasks are the building blocks of success. Life coaching emphasizes the importance of daily actions that align with long-term objectives.

  4. Strategic Goal Setting: We work together to develop actionable strategies that lead to measurable progress, ensuring that each step taken brings clients closer to their vision.

Misconceptions About Life Coaching for Older Adults

One common misconception is that life coaching is only for younger individuals or those at the beginning of their careers. Many older adults believe they are too old for life coaching, thinking that personal growth is no longer achievable. However, this couldn't be further from the truth. Life coaching is beneficial at any age, and older adults often have unique experiences and wisdom that can be leveraged for personal development and fulfillment.

The Importance of Life Coaching at Every Stage of Life

Regardless of age, a life coach or mentor is crucial for those committed to growth. Here’s why:

  1. Clarity and Focus: At any stage, having clarity about one's goals and the focus to pursue them is essential. A life coach helps maintain this clarity.

  2. Overcoming Obstacles: Life presents challenges at every age. Coaches provide tools and strategies to overcome these obstacles effectively.

  3. Continual Growth: Personal development is a lifelong journey. Life coaches support ongoing growth and adaptation, helping clients stay engaged and motivated.

  4. Purpose and Fulfillment: Living with a sense of purpose is crucial for well-being. Coaches help individuals discover and pursue their passions, leading to a more fulfilling life.

The Science Behind Purpose and Longevity

Research has shown that having a mission and purpose in life significantly contributes to longevity and overall well-being. Studies indicate that individuals with a clear sense of purpose tend to live longer, healthier lives. For example, a study published in the journal Psychological Science found that a sense of purpose is linked to lower mortality rates, even among older adults.

Another study from the Journal of the American Medical Association highlighted that those who perceive their lives as meaningful and have clear goals are less likely to suffer from chronic diseases and mental health issues.

Conclusion

Life coaching is a powerful tool for anyone looking to enhance their personal and professional lives. Whether you're young or old, a life coach can help you create a vision, develop new habits, and achieve your goals. Don’t let age be a barrier to seeking growth and fulfillment. Embrace the journey of personal development with the support of a life coach and experience the profound impact it can have on your life.

Will You Be The Next Success Story?

"Honor helped me identify my purpose and then work in concert with that purpose.

[She] helped me do the work in a way that made sense and really worked for good. I am so grateful to Honor for all her wisdom and also for all her encouragement."

Ellen Y.

I looked forward to talking with Honor every week! My nutrition has improved greatly and I have already lost 10 lbs. But my best loss was my self-imposed burden of feeling responsible for other’s actions. Honor helped me reframe my thinking. My attitude has shifted so much that after I decided to leave my current job, I had complete peace about my decision. Each day, I now try to meditate, walk, sleep better, eat well, and enjoy the moment. Every day is not perfect and that is okay too. Honor’s weekly calls, encouraging texts and listening without judging makes her an excellent coach.

Kara P.

Honor has such great intuition. She helped me uncover limiting beliefs I had no idea I had but were sabotaging me daily. With her guidance and resources, I was able to recognize and abolish behaviors that were no longer serving me. Honor encouraged me to organize and prioritize my day to help my business grow and still manage to take care of myself and my family. Even with an upcoming move, I feel confident and inspired by what the future holds for my health and my business. Thank you Honor for your incredible support!.

Richard P.

Honor is an incredible mindset coach. She not only helped me to lose the extra 10 lbs I was carrying around my middle, but she also equipped me with the right mindset to reach my goal and never fall back into unhealthy habits. I struggled at first because I have such a hectic and unpredictable travel schedule. Honor quickly taught me ninja hacks to stay on track, and she worked with me until I reached my goal. Her knowledge about health, life, leadership, and mindset set her apart from anyone else I have ever worked with.

Mary M.

Honor has helped me become mindful of my daily choices and stay present in the moment. Her guidance and techniques have helped me lose 27 lbs and more importantly, let go of my fear of gaining it back. Today I look at food and my body in a totally different way. There is no judgment, just wonder. Before I let a thought affect my feelings, I ask myself if those thoughts are true. Honor helped me uncover my awesomeness and the courage to own it. Her program was truly a transformation for my body and my mind!
