About me
Rebel with a cause…
I launched Pam Larson Coaching with a passion for people and a lofty goal: to support innovative leaders who are ready to revolutionize their personal and professional lives.
If you’re like my clients you are a high-performing and high-achieving person with a strong commitment to bringing the very best of yourself to every area of your personal and professional life. You have a desire to inspire the world around you and to leave a lasting legacy.
You want to direct your energy, creativity, and resources towards achieving the life you want.
But you’re feeling stuck and overwhelmed right now. You don’t quite know how to take control of you life.
This is exactly where I was in 2010 and I have really good news for you…
Every revolution starts with a problem! And mine was actually quite simple: I was at a crossroads and ready for a radical change but wasn’t sure how to get there.
It turns out the answer was much simpler and significantly less overwhelming than I believed. I discovered that I needed to embrace who I was, what I do well, and how I uniquely do it in the world. This allowed me to find my voice and gave me the courage to start the revolution in my personal and professional life. Considering where I came from it felt quite rebellious to throw off all the limitations and “should’s” and live whole heartedly and fully me.
My life was at a crossroads. Our son was getting married, our daughter had graduated college and was settling into her career and I no longer wanted to work 65+ hours a week. Even though I loved my job. I began to ask a new question to an old problem. Rather than what do I want to do with my life I began to ask what felt like rebellious “being” questions at the time:
“How do I want to live my life?”
“Who do I want to be in my life?”
“What gives me life?”
“What if i lived whole-heartedly as the ‘me’ i long to be?”
I made the leap and left my 20+ year career as a Pastor to retool as an International Coach Federation Trained and Certified Coach. It was one of the best decisions of my life. I discovered the answers to my burning questions and have been applying them to my coaching practice and my own life ever since.
I found a career that I am passionate about, people I love working with, and a way to be in the world rather that is true to me.
Today my clients experience breakthroughs by discovering WHO they are, WHAT they do best, and HOW they do it in the world. My expertise is in guiding my clients to higher levels of leadership, executive presence, and self-confidence. I’ve worked with hundreds of satisfied clients since launching my private coaching practice in 2014.
After working with my private coaching clients for hundreds of hours, I’ve discovered that while happy and successful people definitely have many things in common, successful people who are living life on their own terms have embraced their unique personality and wiring, individual strengths, how they learn best, and have applied them with confidence and belief in themselves. They’ve discovered there is no limit on the peace, prosperity and quality of life they can create.
I’ve authored two e-books "Blueprint For An Overwhelmproof Life" and "ReSet: A Guide For A Fresh Start."
I’m a wife, mother, and grandmother, living and working in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. My husband Kevin, son Daniel, his wife Monica and their son Hawken (my first grandchild and light of my life) and daughter Kayla inspire me every day to use my strengths and gifts to support, love, and advocate for them and for my clients on their journey towards the life they want to live.
Before becoming a Coach, I was a pastor on the staff of a large church where I developed scores of volunteer teams, created and grew programs, wrote curriculum, and mentored emerging leaders. I was also a popular speaker and teacher. In 2011 I resigned my pastoral leadership position of 17 years to pursue a new path as a professionally trained and certified coach.
Coaching has been a natural fit with all of my years of training, education, and experience as a pastor and leader and my desire to support people in becoming their best selves.
Currently, I’m pursuing a long desired goal of earning my master's degree in sociology specializing in gender studies and human development. I also achieved another goal earning my Professional Certified Coach (PCC) status with the International Coach Federation (ICF) in 2018.
