About Me

Hi! I'm Denise Richter and I live, work and play in Golden, CO. As the mother of two young daughters, I stay busy with my family, my coaching business, and my many hobbies, which include horse-back riding, rock climbing, traveling, snowboarding, hiking and tae kwon do.
Motherhood is an amazing and meaningful journey, but I know that being a mother to young children can leave you feeling isolated, unfulfilled, and under-appreciated. And those feelings can lead to a sense of guilt because you are supposed to "enjoy every moment," right? If you have any feelings of frustration or dissatisfaction, I can help you reconnect with your authentic self so that you can find balance, fulfillment, and joy.
I came to coaching because it truly is a crossroads of many of my interests: positive psychology, education, health and wellness, relationships, and communications. I started Golden Life Coaching and Education because I want to make a positive impact where I can. Life coaching allows me to build authentic partnerships to help people live happy and fulfilled lives. I love working with mothers because I truly understand the conflicting feelings associated with raising young children while trying to find connection and fulfillment outside the home. Being a mother is a noble calling, but you will be a better mother if you take care of yourself and follow your dreams. I love helping women find balance and an authentic sense of self in motherhood.
I'm trained through the Institute of Life Coach Training (ILCT) and I'm a member of the International Coaching Federation (ICF). I look forward to working with you!
