Andrea Gharritt, MPH, RDN, CLC
Founder of The Bold Life Design
Andrea is the human behind The Bold Life Design, a coaching & consulting practice centered around enabling bold leaders & high-achievers to play big, own their story, & go after their most audacious goals.
Having worked with over 2,500 humans – from Executives to college grads – Andrea’s passion is to support you in letting go of everything that is keeping you playing small, such as:
Living by someone else’s definition of success
Too much work & too little joy
Perfectionism & all-or-none thinking
Being paralyzed by the fear of failure
Worthiness that is attached to productivity, what your body looks like, etc.
“Shoulding” all over yourself
Squishy (or non-existent) boundaries
Endless rounds on the food/joy/pleasure deprivation - overcompensation - punishment (repeat) hamster wheel
Currencies of time & energy NOT being spent on the things you truly care about
Being a human is complicated. You deserve to feel supported in your humanhood. Andrea will NEVER tell you what to do with your life. But she promises to hold you accountable to the highest vision you have for yourself & support you as you move in the direction of THAT. And help you get out of your own way along the journey.

The word “coaching” gets thrown around quite a bit these days, making it hard to understand what coaching actually is and what to look for in an excellent coach. (Check out this video to learn a little bit more.)
Here’s the thing, I don’t want you to invest in anything less than extraordinary, especially when it comes to coaching. That is why I have spent the last 13 years honing my talents & building my skillset with education, training, research & reading. I have worked with thousands of individuals from all sorts of backgrounds in all sorts of industries. I continue to prioritize my own growth, development & wellbeing every day so I can show up in the highest service of you every, single session.
I care deeply about this work and believe in it’s power to transform.
And like you, I strive for excellence. I do everything with my full ass.

I am going to be really real with you.
I am NOT the right coach for you if:
You are looking for more serious & less fun.
You desire more achievement for achievements sake.
You want to keep on the armor and masks and be “corporate” & buttoned-up all the time.
You are only interested in work achievement and not in creating space for pleasure, peace & play.
You believe color, art & being bold is unprofessional.
You are looking for a coach who is going to focus on only one very specific part of your life.
I AM the right coach for you if:
You desire achievement that is deeply tied to your purpose.
You have a sense of humor.
You want more space for fun, creativity & play in your life – at work & home.
You want to lead with courage & compassion.
You believe that all humans deserve security, dignity & belonging.
You recognize that being professional & being human can co-exist at the same time.
You welcome the disco ball sparkling in the background of our calls.
Coaching is a vessel for this amazing, intimate, high-energy, high-action relationship between humans. It’s a space for vulnerability and your whole, gritty humanity. And often this relationship is over an extended period of time. So it’s REALLY important that you find a coach with a style, vibe, and energy that fits you.
And in the highest service of YOU, I am going to be super upfront about who I am and who I want to work with.
After working with thousands of high-achievers, here’s what a I know in my bones…
97-year-old You is going to be deeply proud when they look back and take stock of all your purpose-driven accomplishments, the meaningful connections & relationships you fostered, the memories you made, the fun you had, the stepping out of your comfort zone, the trying new things, the standing up for others, but most importantly…
The courage you had to be & live exactly as your Highest Wisdom Self intended for you.
That’s the vision I want to help you bring to life & hold you accountable to. I am so honored and deeply grateful to help you build this life. To find the intersection of your purpose, pleasure & peace. To cultivate some big, move mountains, level 10, resilient JOY.
“I lived a joyful life. MY life. And it wasn’t without it’s challenges, but damn, it was beautiful. I experienced BIG joy. I savored it. I shared it. And I freed others with it. My joy is woven into my legacy.”
- 97-year-old You
