I’m Your Facilitator, Erica Mattison.
After building my rewarding social impact career, I founded Erica Mattison Coaching & Consulting as a resource for people seeking to do good in the world and do well in their lives. This was after completing degrees in psychology, public administration, and law.
As I built my practice, I continued working in 9-to-5 roles, such as environmental protection lobbyist and director of strategic communications for a higher-education sustainability program.
In 2022, I went all in with my coaching practice to serve more clients and immerse myself in career and professional development. I coach individuals and groups and lead workshops and talks for organizations. As a connector and convenor, I host the Thriving Careers Community. I am pleased to be the author of “Clarifying What Matters.”
As a coach and facilitator, I incorporate play into my work and help you do the same.
