Leslie McCaddon Coaching

When your life falls apart, you don't have to rebuild it alone.

I'm a certified grief and life coach for women navigating loss, heartbreak, and the quiet unraveling of the life they once knew. Together, we'll turn your grief into a foundation of love and clarity.

A quiet moment

You are in the right place

Grief doesn't follow a timeline. Neither does healing.

Maybe you've lost someone you loved. Maybe you've lost the version of your life you thought you were building. Maybe you're grieving something you can't quite name.

Whatever brought you here, your anger, sadness, and heartbreak are welcome. My work is to help you feel them fully, understand them clearly, and use them to build something honest and true.

Start With a Conversation

A coach who writes with heart.

Leslie McCaddon

I'm Leslie McCaddon — a certified life and grief coach, and a published writer whose work on grief and parenting has appeared in Time Magazine, Scary Mommy, Her View From Home, and TAPS.

I coach the woman who has watched the life she built come apart — through death, divorce, illness, betrayal, or the slow accumulation of losses that don't have a name. I help her process her anger and sadness, honor her grief, and use her emotions to create a life on a foundation of love and clarity.

My approach is trauma-informed, deeply personalized, and flexible enough to meet you exactly where you are.

Working Together

1:1 coaching, shaped to fit your life.

Every relationship begins with a free Zoom conversation. From there, I offer high-touch coaching packages designed to fit a range of budgets and needs.

The Free Zoom Call

A gentle, no-pressure conversation where I listen, you share, and together we see if this is the right fit. Every path forward starts here.

High-Touch 1:1 Packages

Weekly sessions plus email and text support between appointments. You are held, heard, and supported through the real work of healing.

Flexible Options

Packages designed to fit many budgets. Because healing shouldn't be reserved for those who can most easily afford it.

See If We're a Fit

Let's Begin

Reach out. I'll meet you where you are.

Whatever you're carrying, you don't have to explain it perfectly. Share as much or as little as feels right, and I'll be in touch to schedule your free Zoom call.
