Welcome to Growth Without Borders.
Coaching that meets you where you are.
My approach
At Growth Without Borders, coaching isn’t about fixing yourself or striving for perfection.
It’s about coming back to who you are with clarity, honesty, and a sense of grounded direction.
I work with deep thinkers, high achievers, and anyone who feels ready for more—more self-awareness, more alignment, more intention in how they move through their life. Whether you’re navigating a transition, redefining your identity, rebuilding confidence, or feeling out of sync, this is a space to pause, reflect, and reconnect with yourself.
My approach blends mindset coaching and clarity-focused strategies to help you strengthen self-trust, understand your patterns, and make aligned decisions. Our work is structured enough to create momentum and flexible enough to meet you where you are.
You don’t need all the answers today. You just need a space where you can hear yourself again and choose your next step with confidence.
Creating Space for Real Conversations
Coaching with me isn’t rigid or scripted. It’s a conversation where you get to show up as yourself and explore what’s actually going on beneath the surface. Most of our work happens online, giving you flexibility to connect from wherever you are—whether you’re at home, traveling, or building a new chapter in your life.
For clients who are local, occasional in-person sessions may be available if it aligns with the work and your comfort.
No matter how we meet, the intention is the same:
to create a space where you can think clearly, reflect honestly, and talk through the things you don’t usually say out loud. This is coaching that centers clarity, insight, and practical forward movement—without pressure, judgment, or pretense.
It’s a space for real conversations that help you understand yourself, make aligned decisions, and move into the version of your life that actually fits.
Flexible Coaching, wherever you are.
Most of my sessions happen virtually so we can connect easily from anywhere—your home, your travels, or wherever life has you. If you’re local, I also offer the option to meet in natural, grounded spaces like coffee shops or relaxed outdoor spots. Sometimes the best conversations happen away from a desk.
Wherever we meet, the goal is the same: create an environment where you feel comfortable, supported, and able to show up as yourself.

Stephanie Upham
I don’t coach from theory—I coach from what I’ve lived.
For years, I over-functioned, pushed past myself, and tried to outrun the parts of me I didn’t want to sit with. I kept chasing the “next version” of myself, hoping she would finally feel like enough.
What I learned is this:
You don’t need fixing.
You need space to hear yourself again—without pressure, without performing, and without abandoning your own pace.My coaching is grounded in clarity work, mindset shifts, honest reflection, and real conversation. I help people understand their patterns, trust their voice, and make decisions that align with who they’re becoming. I work especially well with deep feelers, recovering perfectionists, and anyone navigating a season of change or reinvention.
I’m a certified life coach and in my second year of a master’s in clinical mental health counseling. More importantly, I’m someone who’s walked through confusion, burnout, and identity shifts—and come out clearer on the other side.
If you’re ready to shift—not perform—I’d be honored to support you as you step into what’s next.
