Candice Sterling’s Bio:
Are Life Coaches chosen or trained? Candice happens to be both. She is the oldest and only girl in her family, she married her high school sweetheart of over 15 years and is mother to four beautiful children, ages 5 to 13. Prior to getting married, Candice received her Bachelor in Social Work degree from La Sierra University in Riverside, California.  Shortly after graduating she embarked on a life of perpetual motion as the wife to a Navy Doctor. As Candice and her family moved from state to state, she frequently found herself pairing her clinical training with her innate, compassionate, and genuine “keeping it real” disposition, as she assisted countless friends and family members’ problem-solve various life experiences. Candice coined the phrase, “let’s talk this through,” which was often her initial response to an anxious and frustrated mother struggling to balancing the multiple demands of life or to the young couple contemplating marriage, but may be feeling discouraged at the thought of seemingly insurmountable conflicts between them. Through her own journey and her work with others, Candice experienced the old truth that, “An expert knows all the answers - if you ask the right questions.” 
As a certified Life & Family Coach and founder of Progressing on Purpose (POP), Candice utilizes tenets from positive psychology to empower her clients to move confidently toward their goals and recognize their own resilience and power. Candice has been known to help through self-development, relationship coaching and parent coaching. Although Candice and her family currently reside in Virginia Beach, Virginia, she has the ability to connect with individual clients from all around the country via video conferencing or in-person workshops and coaching sessions.
