Brenda

From an article in Fibromyalgia & Chronic Pain LIFE, Brenda learned about Take Courage Coaching.  Intrigued about the possibility of reducing her pain, she began working with a coach.  “It changed my life,” she says, looking back at how much pain determined her happiness and activity. Her favorite pain-management tools are time-based pacing and self-care, and it’s the best way to remain a driven person without all the pain caused by indiscriminate bursts of energy. Brenda is a graduate of TCC®U’s coach training program, a Certified Pain-Management Coach and a Board-Certified Health and Wellness Coach with NBHWC. Her past work experience includes office management and medical billing, and she still invests time in her community. She lives in the Pacific Northwest with her husband where they share a love for camping and kayaking. She is also a mother to three daughters and a grandmother to 7 + 2 bonus grandchildren.  She lives a full life and finds better ways to live with chronic pain which expand her enjoyment of family time.
