Andi Schrader

Heart to Heart Coach

Working in the gap between where people currently are and the vision of where they want to
be, Andi utilizes her powerful intuition and years of experience to coach teams and individuals
to identify and move towards achieving their dreams. She places high value on the healthy
functioning of intact teams and uses creative approaches to move them toward mutual support
and accountability.

Andi’s vision is to release the creative potential inside every client. Coaching the whole person,
her understanding of human development, neuroscience and the enneagram informs her
supportive and authentic style of coaching. Her commitment to individual growth and team
connectedness is central to her practice. Drawing on her experience in the visual arts, her
values of authenticity, creative expression and beauty, she infuses her coaching with unique and engaging experiences.

A genuine optimist, Andi is an idea person, an artist and an international trip leader. Her passion for coaching people to embrace what’s possible shows up in all the experiences she leads. Her hope is that interior work and wellbeing in her clients will nurture the right conditions to release their creative potential, whether that is leading more effectively or creating something fresh and new.

One of Andi’s super powers is her ability to read non verbal cues, as she is deaf and wears cochlear implants which allow her to communicate verbally, but also with acute awareness to other dimensions of human connectivity. Her curiosity and endless creativity find expression in mixed media and fiber art, hospitality and unique group designs. An occasional homebody, she and Dave, her husband of 40 years, live in NE Ohio. Hiking long distance trails with Dave and friends is one of her life joys.
