The Cool and Winding Road...

Penelope Olson’s journey through life hasn’t only been about navigating change—it’s been about mastering it, one graceful pivot at a time.   From corporate boardrooms to ballet studios, from the joys of raising children to the wisdom of grandmotherhood, Penelope has embraced every twist and turn life has thrown her way.   She continuously learns that thriving amidst life’s unpredictability is all about leaning into the flow.

Her rich tapestry of experiences—spanning management; professional ballet; parenting 2 children; while celebrating 4 grandchildren and 2 great-grandchildren—has gifted Penelope with a wealth of knowledge and perspective.  Add to that decades of immersing herself in a range of healing and academic disciplines, and it’s clear why she’s acquired such superb tools for confidently guiding others through their own life transitions.

In her 40s, Penelope took a bold step into academia, earning a Bachelor of Science in Holistic Nutrition and a Master’s in Education with a focus on Counseling Psychology.   Along the way, she became a Certified Master Life Coach; Certified Master Motivational Strategist; and Certified Stress Management Consultant.  This diverse expertise has allowed her to help countless individuals compost stress into strength; lead empowerment retreats in spiritual and secular settings; and teach hospital classes on how to navigate life’s constant shifts with grace and resilience.

Her journey began with a deeply personal quest—overcoming debilitating migraines—which led her to explore a wide range of wholistic modalities ranging from the gentle energy of Reiki to the profound physical shifts of Rolfing.  In each of these healing modalities, Penelope found relief from her migraines AND began developing a powerful blueprint for handling stress.  Now, she shares this healing blueprint with her clients, bringing each of them proven tools and techniques that help transform their stress so they can reclaim their lives.

Penelope’s signature program, The Change Matrix™ Formula, is a culmination of her life’s work.   It’s a powerful process designed to help people support themselves in embracing change so they can achieve their dreams, regardless of challenges they may face.   Her experiences hve brought a deep understanding that change is a constant. With that earned wisdom has come equal knowledge that—without the right tools—change can lead to stress, dis-ease, and even physical illness.   Penelope’s Change Matrix™ delivers empowering tools, techniques, and tips her clients need to find strength and resilience—and even fun!—in the midst of life’s transitions.

It’s important to be clear—Penelope doesn’t claim to have “perfected” the art of living stress-free! Instead, she lives what she teaches every day because it works and the result is her legendarily joyful life.  By composting her own stress, she’s created profound shifts in her life. Now it’s her bliss—and honor—to witness these strategies do the same for others as they balance the chaos of life with sustainable, intentional poise and joy

Penelope has truly reaped—and shared—the benefits of her own wonderful life.
