Welcome, I’m Jory, founder of ExpansiveCoach™.

People usually find their way to my work in seasons that don’t yet have a clear name. Life and leadership aren’t falling apart, but they aren’t settled either. There’s responsibility, history, momentum, and a quiet sense that something wants attention.

What matters most to me in this work is how we stay with moments like these.

I don’t believe insight or clarity comes from pushing harder, gathering more information, or rushing toward answers. In my experience, it comes from slowing things down enough to hear what’s actually happening underneath the noise. From giving uncertainty a little room, instead of trying to eliminate it too quickly.

Much of my work is about helping people think well when certainty isn’t available. To notice where pressure is distorting judgment. To separate what feels urgent from what’s actually important. And to make choices that feel honest, sustainable, and true to who they are.

I tend to work with people who carry real responsibility in their work, their families, and their communities. People who care deeply about how they show up, and who want their lives and leadership to feel more coherent and less fragmented.

My work is guided by the EXPANSIVE™ Framework, a whole-person approach I developed, grounded in established coaching, psychological, and somatic practices, to support clarity, steadiness, and growth in complex seasons. It weaves together cognitive, somatic, and reflective practices, allowing the work to be both practical and soulful, without losing rigor, discernment, or depth.

Over the past 5,000 hours of coaching, I’ve worked with leaders, professionals, founders, and coaches across industries and cultures. I’m a Master Certified Coach (MCC) and serve as an ICF Mentor Coach and Assessor, partnering with coaches as they develop mastery, confidence, and alignment with the ICF Core Competencies. I remain deeply engaged in learning, supervision, and reflective practice.

I bring my full humanity into this work. Like many of the people I work with, I’ve lived through seasons of transition, uncertainty, and reorientation. Those experiences shape how I listen, how I pace the work, and how seriously I take the trust people place in me.

At its heart, this work is about orientation. Finding steadier footing when the path isn’t obvious. Creating enough space to breathe, reflect, and choose with integrity over time.
