Barb Elvidge
About Me

Hi, my name is Barb. I’m a certified life coach, recently retired OCT teacher, and lifelong learner passionate about helping others reach their goals and navigate life’s challenges. Over the course of my teaching career, I mentored countless educators, supported individuals through difficult situations, and developed a deep understanding of how to foster growth and resilience. I'm always a work in progress, learning and growing as I strive to create my best life—just like the people I love to help.

With 30 years of marriage and raising two wonderful children, I’ve gained invaluable insights into balancing personal and professional commitments, overcoming obstacles, and creating meaningful connections. I know firsthand how essential it is to have a strong support system — and how difficult it can be when that support isn’t readily available.

​

Now, as a certified life coach, I’m excited to bring my experience and empathy into this new chapter. Whether you’re looking to achieve personal growth, build healthier habits, strengthen your family dynamic, or need practical support tailored to your unique situation, I’m here to help. I provide personalized guidance and create resources to empower you to move forward with confidence.
