About Dr. Ally

Dr. Ally is a Life Coach, Consultant, Author, Speaker, and Business Owner. She started her own transformation journey at age 17 after feeling she was drowning in emotional chaos and low confidence. Now, having mastered confidence from the inside out and gaining a doctorate in psychology along the way, she specializes in helping individuals skyrocket their confidence and uses cutting-edge research on emotional intelligence to help people reach their goals and dreams.

After becoming a mom, she realized this work also helped her have a steady, confident, peaceful and fulfilling motherhood experience, and shares these principles with mothers to help them deeply and fully enjoy motherhood as well! Her work has been featured in blogs and bestselling books (as both a named contributor and ghostwriter on topics related to psychology), as well as TV, E-Courses, and YouTube. In her free time, she loves to travel and has been to 72 countries.

Dr. Ally also provides individual coaching as well as staff training and development for nonprofits and emerging leaders. She is proud to be a weekly contributor to the staff training and curriculum at Harbor Care Foundation. https://www.harborcares.org/staff-development/ For enquiries about individual or recurring staff training, development, and coaching, please email info@radiantthoughts.com.
