Welcome to birch & stone
Coaching helps you with new strategies to achieve positive outcomes. Whether it's personal or professional, coaching can help make the situations in your life better serve you.
We’re here to help you free yourself from the stories you've come to believe about your life, so you can really start living it.
Whether you're navigating personal transitions or professional challenges, coaching offers a path forward. From sustainable habit change to leadership development, emotional resilience to effective communication—our private coaching and group masterclasses are designed to meet you where you are and grow with you from there.
Coaching is available for individuals, groups, and organizations. Because how we show up in one area of life deeply impacts all the others. And I'm here to help you show up fully.
What is Life Coaching?
A life coach is someone who helps you see yourself clearly—without judgment, without expectation, and without the noise of the world around you.
At birch & stone, a life coach is not someone with all the answers. We’re someone who walks beside you as you ask the right questions. We're trained to help you identify what’s getting in your way, where you’re stuck, and what patterns might be holding you back—often ones you've carried for years without realizing.
We help you access the part of you that already knows what to do—but has been buried under pressure, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or the simple weight of life.
A coach doesn’t give advice. A coach gives you tools, space, and structure to grow.
We use a combination of mindset work, behavior patterns, emotional processing, and practical strategy to help you create meaningful and sustainable change. Whether your goals are personal, relational, or professional, coaching bridges the gap between where you are and where you want to be.
A good life coach helps you:
* Break old cycles and rewire thought patterns
* Get clear on your values, desires, and direction
* Set goals and follow through—even when it’s hard
* Improve communication in relationships, at work, and with yourself
* Navigate big life transitions with clarity and strength
* Reconnect with your sense of purpose and possibility
At its heart, coaching isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about returning to who you’ve always been—before the world told you to be smaller, quieter, or different.
That’s what we’re here for. To help you rise rooted.
At birch & stone, we believe coaching isn’t one-size-fits-all. To some, a coach feels like a guide. To others, a partner, a thought provoker, an anchor. We honor all of that.
Our work is about helping you return to yourself—beneath the noise, the roles, the expectations. Together, we uncover the beliefs and patterns that no longer serve you, and we help you build a mindset rooted in clarity, purpose, and self-trust.

Some Testimonials
"Emily B. has a way of helping a person understand their own perspective and then helps shift the conversation to a place of support. Emily’s tone of voice makes me feel safe and not judged. Thank you, Emily, for listening and guiding me to a healthier life." - Cassandra
"I participated in Emily's Goal Setting Masterclass at the beginning of the summer and after 60 minutes or so I left with tools and the confidence to use them. This masterclass set a tone of success and a course for my summer, which is leading into the fall and goals beyond that.
We discussed goals and wishes for our selves, our work lives, and our best lives and looked at them realistically in terms of time lines...30, 60, or 90 days and Emily clarified the difference between making a plan and taking an action.
I learned the value of obstacles and how to use them to help myself define strategies to work through them.
The simple but profound message that I walked away with is, "Progress not Perfection" frees me to move forward successfully towards my goals and to enjoy the process. Thank you, Emily!"Â -Beth
Working with Coach Emily has been more impactful than any therapist I’ve seen—and that’s saying a lot. She brings something truly different to the table. Her approach is action-focused, deeply supportive, and incredibly effective at helping you move forward in real, tangible ways. She knows how to ask the kind of questions that get right to the heart of what’s holding you back, all while creating a space that feels safe, nurturing, and empowering.
I’ve been working on things like my weight, self-worth, single motherhood, and building a business for a long time—but since working with her, I’ve made more progress than ever. She knows how to ask the right questions—the kind that challenge you to think differently and take meaningful steps forward, all while feeling fully supported.
Her group coaching sessions are just as powerful. Listening to her coach others always gives me new insight and inspiration. Every session—whether one-on-one or group—is packed with wisdom and growth.
Coach Emily is a rare find, and if you're ready for meaningful, lasting change, I’m so grateful to have her in my corner. I can’t recommend her enough." - Kelli
"Brower Hoffman Coaching is changing my life in BIG ways! As a high-performing, multi-faceted woman with a big mission, I finally see a clear path forward. I'm gaining the clarity and strategy I’ve been praying for—direction that fuels my passion and gives me the strength to keep pushing toward purpose. This isn’t just coaching; it’s transformation." -Lashelle
