Darla is an inspired coach, whose calm, clear
presence, compassion, and insight bring out the greatness in her
clients, particularly when they may not be able to see it for
themselves. Having been through the process of transforming her own
life from one of unrequited ambition to one of meaning and passion,
she knows firsthand the courage it takes to discover one's own path
in life and the rewards that unfold during the journey.
Darla is a veteran in the field of coaching with more than 15 years of professional experience to her credit. She obtained a BS in Chemical Engineering from the University of Minnesota in 1996, and received her Professional Coaching Certification from the Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching (iPEC) in 2009. In between, she has been a Senior Engineer for a Fortune 100 CPG company, taught high school math and statistics, and managed multi-million dollar marketing campaigns for several billion-dollar brands.
In every role, Darla sought out opportunities to coach and develop others, while voraciously developing herself as a leader and coach. With clients, co-workers, and students, Darla has helped others discover their true selves and empowered them to motivate their own action. This is a theme scattered throughout her life beginning with a neighborhood get-to-know-you skit at age 8, and a self-esteem program for 5th graders, developed in high school! After years of coaching individuals for other organizations, Darla decided to commit herself fully to the role of coach by opening her own business.
By stepping into business, Darla is now "walking the talk" of her mission, which is to create a world in which we are each free to be our Self and share our True Gifts in our life and work. Today she leads a purposeful and fulfilled life as owner and principal of Doux Coaching. She is a powerful catalyst for her clients and workshop participants, empowering them to "rewrite their rules" to create freedom, clarity of purpose, a balanced and inspired life that emanates from their true Self.

Indecision can be immobilizing. When you are faced with an opportunity or a challenge it can be both exciting and scary. But the flux between these emotions was actually preventing me from moving forward. I decided to work with Darla because I was a crossroads. I was looking for a process that would allow me to work through some issues and be accountable to making progress - for myself. Before the program I was contemplating starting a consulting business. Dealing with issues such as "can I really do this?" "Is this the right time?" I knew after our first session that this would be a great program. Darla's guiding questions gave me the chance to tackle some issues I didn't even know I had. As those were uncovered I could move forward.
