My name is Graciela “Grace” Sandoz, a trained and certified Health and Wellness Coach through the Mayo Clinic and a National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC). I also hold training in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). My academic foundation includes a Master’s degree in Psychology from the University of Richmond, Virginia, and a Licenciatura en Psicología from the National University of Córdoba, Córdoba, Argentina.
With roots in both Argentina and the U.S., I offer bilingual coaching in English and Spanish and bring a multicultural lens to my work. I currently live in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, with my husband and our beloved dog, and I’m the proud mom of two adult children whom I adore.
Over the years, I’ve come to believe that navigating life’s transitions—whether personal, professional, or health-related—requires both grit and grace.
Why Grit? To me, grit is perseverance, passion, and persistence. It’s what carries us through adversity and into transformation. It’s also nourishment—a reminder to keep feeding our inner strength, much like how an oyster transforms irritation into a pearl. No grit, no pearl.
Why Grace? Grace is not only my name, but a core value I strive to embody: compassion, empathy, and presence. It’s how I meet others and how I hope to be met in return.
My Approach Through coaching, I offer support, empathy, and guidance to help you create a toolkit that empowers you to navigate life’s changes with clarity and confidence. Coaching is a collaborative, client-directed process rooted in visioning, goal-setting, and sustainable behavior change. I aim to help you tap into your own strengths, values, and lived experiences to build a life that feels aligned and whole.
Life’s pivotal moments are rarely easy—but they can open the door to powerful growth. My work is grounded in both my professional training and my own journey of transformation, and it’s a privilege to walk alongside others as they navigate theirs.
Together, we’ll move forward—with grit, and a little bit of grace.
