Reimagine
Your Story
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
​
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
​
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
​
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference. ​

Your Story Matters...
It matters to me.
​​
You are one of a kind. No one has your story. It's a fingerprint of words with swirls, twists and turns that are yours alone. It's in your story that you live and make decisions and choices every day. It's what we tell ourselves, how we manage our lives. Your story can hold you back or propel you forward. The choice is always yours and yours alone.
Sometimes you can become stagnate in your story and struggle to figure out the next chapter, or even the next sentence or word. Feeling lost, uncertain or stuck is a common condition. Wanting to move forward but not sure how is where we can find ourselves.
Life can throw some heavy punches or curve balls and leave us in an uncertain place. It's full of valleys and mountain tops; endings and beginnings; stops and starts.
No matter what you're facing, whether it's a new start or starting again, there's a story with the "Why" behind your decisions and motivations and how you ended up "here".
The great news is you don't have to stay "here". We won't stay stuck in your story but work together to move it forward into a new word, sentence, paragraph, chapter, or a whole new novel.
​​​​​​​​​
Join me on a personalized transformative journey to find the key to unlock what's next and live a life you've written. I'm here to guide & support you to find your inner story teller, the experimenter, the adventurer in all things health and wellness related and see you be successful in your goals and life.

Becoming, Stories & Dragonflies
Becoming. A Loaded Word.
What and who are you becoming? There are times in our lives when everything shifts, sometimes of our own doing, and sometimes from things out of our control. But...we do have control of how we walk into our future, and that's where you and I come together to help you figure out your next step, whether small or grand. Beginning again isn't a bad thing. In fact, it offers freedom. The freedom to make choices.
Stories. Pick Up Your Pen Again.
You have a story to tell about how you ended up here, wherever here is. I believe there's a story behind every part of your health, whether it's the desire to lose weight, to exercise again, or to go after that long forgotten dream. Perhaps, it's to reestablish a relationship. You are the author of what happens next in the chapters to come. It's time to pick up that pen again.
Dragonfly. Why is it symbolic of change?
In different cultures, dragonflies are symbols of change and transformation. During their natural metamorphosis from aquatic nymphs to airborne adults, they demonstrate they are adept at changing from one thing to another, mirroring personal growth and development.
​
They represent self-realization, mental and emotional maturity, and the ability to move beyond surface level perceptions to understand the deeper meaning of life. They are associated with the idea of shedding old ways and embracing mature perspectives, understanding life is a multifaceted journey.
​
The way the dragonfly glides across the water's surface is seen as a symbol of seeking what lies deep beyond the surface. A dive into spiritual and mental exploration to the deeper meaning and purpose in life.
​
Dragonflies are gilded winged change artists in disguise. Nature's perfect icon.
​
I'd like you to consider...
​
If you are willing to begin to write your story again,
What would you write?
What would you dream?​
Would it be a wild dream or simple?
To scale a mountain or create more harmony and balance in your life?
Burning Questions
How long does coaching
take to make a difference?
What can I be coached on?
The outcome, although never a guarantee, is up to you. You are the expert of your own life. It's up to you to make a life change, goal, or dream a reality. Three months is the minimum time frame to realistically create sustainable change.
​
The area of focus depends on you, and what is most important right now. We can explore any facet of health and wellness, from big topics to small ideas, even just creating the habit of making your bed. The core areas to consider are: Sleep, Movement, Nutrition, Relationships, Resiliency, Spirituality, Environment or whatever topic resonates with you.
​
I've had coaching partners work on cleaning out rooms, to creating weekly menus, to getting in more movement.
​
What is the difference between coaching and therapy?
Coaching and therapy have been called cousins. Therapy dives deep into your past, traumas, emotional and mental healing. The educaton component is also different. We won't ignore your past, the stories that shaped and shape you, but we won't stay there. It's more of a jumping off point. During your Sneak Peek, we can decide if coaching is your best option.
Why do I need coaching?
Why is it effective?
Coaching can take you to the next level in your life. Oftentimes, we get stuck in the change phase of Contemplation, wanting to move forward, but can't seem to budge. Maybe you'd tried to do things on your own, but need accountability and support. Perhaps you don't know where to begin, but know you need to make changes in your life. We'll explore the different core areas of health and narrow it down for what's best right now.
​
Coaching is effective because we work with the whole person, addressing all core areas that influence your health & wellbeing. Coaches ask powerful questions & facilitate the process to maximize your potential for success. Coaching identifies & articulates your goals & the effective actions to achieve them. Coaches also have wealth of knowledge in lifetsyle & integrative approaches for optimal health & wellbeing.
​
What is an integrative health
& wellness coach?
In a Nutshell...It is...
​
A Client-Centered & Relational Approach
to working with individuals collaboratively
to address the health & wellbeing of the whole person.

I'm here to guide you through a process of discovering what's
important to you and why. With a methodically proven coaching
method; we'll walk down a road to holistic health and well-being,
to feel empowered to achieve your self-determined and
self-authored goals.
​
By cultivating mindfulness and focusing on self-care, a natural
flow of thought and awareness becomes accessible, resulting in
self-discovery and action oriented processes.
​
You are comprised of physical, mental, emotional, spiritual and
relational elements, and each part affects the others. I will work
to help you integrate these parts to create wholeness, not by
telling you what to do or giving advice, but by inviting you to
explore your envisioned life.
​
I believe in the power of change. Change is not easy, and it's not
linear, but it is possible in a thought provoking, creative and
experimental process.I believe that what is within you is stronger
than what is in your way; that you know instinctively what's best
for you. You have an innate healing capacity & intuition that
we'll tap into.
Through creating visions and setting SMART goals with
accountability, change can be sustainable for good. As your
partner in change, we'll elicit your own motivations and values to
promote growth on every level.
​​
What is a methodically
proven coaching method?
What is my purpose & mission statement?
Just like in therapy, a health and wellness coach learns and
applies different methods, theories and modalities that are
well-established and supported by evidence. Two techniques
are Motivational Interviewing and Appreciative Inquiry,
among others.
​
At Becoming, I believe that every individual has the power to
become the author of their own story and create a future that aligns with their authentic selves. My mission is to guide
& support people through life's transitions and crossroads,
helping them reclaim control, find clarity, and embrace the opportunities of a fresh start. Whether facing a career change, adjusting to a new health diagnosis, or seeking personal growth after a major life shift, I help individuals reimagine what's possible & step confidently and with clarity, into the next chapter of their journey.
My Story
Welcome to Becoming!
I'm Denee Dole, a National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach.
I completed my coaching program through the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine through the University of Arizona. I'm also a certified Pilates teacher and have taught & practiced for over 20 years, but that's not all of the story.
Like your story, my story is unique to me.
I love all things design: color, print, fabric.
I love art, fashion, architecture. I love details.
I love being creative.
In my first chapter, I pursued a career in the fashion industry,
which lasted until my pregnancy with twins.
An ending of a career and a beginning of a new adventure.
​
Motivated to get back in shape,
I discovered Pilates and soon found myself in my 2nd career.
Twenty-so years later .... I'm still teaching and practicing Pilates.
Movement and health seeking has been a core value that shapes my life.
I like to take deep dives into all kinds of health-related topics, especially ones that help me with my personal health journey, which I'm happy to share with you.​
​
In the fall of 2023, I became a student again after 29 years. Do that math!
I had almost convinced myself I was too old to learn new tricks.
I completed the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine's Health & Wellness coaching program, which was challenging and rewarding.
This past March of 2025, I sat for the National Board for Health & Wellness coaching exam.
That was one rigorous experience. Whew, I passed!
I am in a new chapter of life that is unfolding, and I'm excited to see where it leads me.
As I continue to write the pages, I hope our paths connect and we'll be part of each other's continuing stories. Here's to life!
Still Becoming,
Denee

​​I love learning about lots of different things, except math... I don't like learning about math.
​
Lover of books, writing, art & listening to podcasts. I'm a podcast hoarder.
​
I'm a self-diagnosed neurodivergent ADHD brain, and it all makes sense now...the squirrels
in my brain that are highly caffeinated and doing circus tricks.
​
The mountains in North Carolina are my happy place. I love being in the woods, breathing in fresh air and being in & around mountains streams. I love trees. But not bears or snakes. Both of which I've seen. ​​
​
I believe if a Michael Jackson song is played, you must stop everything & dance.
​
I'm most proud of are my three daughters & my husband. Family is paramount to me.
​
God is my anchor, my source, my everything.
