Erin Jane Nugent - Master Life Coach
Boston, MA Based
Erin Jane is a First Responder Life Coach who was born and raised in Australia where she became a police officer in her early 20's with a state police force. She retired as a Detective at the Armed Crime Squad, before moving to the United States after she met and married her firefighter husband.
Following her policing service, she worked as a Crisis Counselor and supervisor at a Suicide Prevention Organization in Boston and has always prided herself on her strong capacity for compassion, empathy and support of others.
After having two children and focusing on her family, she took a step back to find what she wanted to pursue in the next phase of her career. She soon realized she missed helping people, but more importantly, the First Responder and Emergency Services community that she was a part of.
She recognized there was a gap in services offered to that community and, after extensive conversations with friends and loved ones still in those professions, she found a grey area existed between what peer support could offer and what clinical services provided. She decided she wanted to fill that void so First Responders weren't falling down and getting lost in it.
This is when she chose to become a qualified Master Certified Life Coach, specializing in First Responders, Emergency Services Personnel, their Spouses, Partners and Loved Ones.
As my husband, a 20+ year active duty firefighter, and many of my closest friends and relatives are still in First Responder and Emergency Services roles, this is still my every day life.
It's personal for her, just like it is for you. Having been in both positions, the First Responder and the partner of one, she is fortunate to know what kind of life and associated challenges you can face from both perspectives and it offers her unique insight, understanding, awareness and compassion, which she aims to share with my Clients through coaching sessions.
Additionally, she has engaged in obtaining her CISM qualification (Critical Incident Stress Management) and furthering her studies in the fields of psychology and counseling.
From Erin Jane: "As your Coach, I hope being a former First Responder, as well as being married to one, will comfort you in the knowledge I'm culturally informed, competent and experienced. Therefore, anything you share with me, you know will be understood in the way only a fellow emergency services member could.
On a personal note... I have travelled, loved and lost, navigated life altering transitions and survived many challenges along the way (usually with a little bit of Aussie humour). I'm not perfect, but find beauty in imperfection and joy in helping others, so I hope you'll afford me the opportunity and privilege, to be the one to help you.
My favorite quote, which is very relevant to explaining why I do what I do, as a First Responder Life Coach, I'm going to share with you here:
"Only when we know our own darkness well, can we be present with the darkness of others. Compassion becomes real when we recognize our shared humanity." - Brene Brown, The Gifts of Imperfection
My promise, to all of my Clients as their Coach, will always remain "I will hold space for your darkness."

Whitney Lyn Allen - Certified Grief Educator
Pennsylvania Based
Whitney Lyn Allen is first and foremost mama to her sons, Jackson (5) and Leo (1). She practiced law as a medical malpractice defense attorney for ten years before her husband (who was a Law Enforcement Officer and K9 Handler at his department) had a severe reaction to a bee sting and sustained a severe anoxic brain injury, subsequently resulting in his death.
Whitney decided to turn her pain into purpose and followed her new calling to serve others who are also experiencing grief and trauma and share her vulnerable and personal grief journey with others.
She is the author of the book about grief and life after loss titled, “Running in Trauma Stilettos,” which is an Amazon Best Seller. She is currently in the process of writing her second book.
Whitney is also a certified grief educator and provides grief coaching to those who are ready for their own transformation and growth after loss. She shares the empowering message that there is so much beauty in life, even after losing a loved one. She is also currently the partner of a first responder and understands what it is like to navigate a relationship with one.
Megan Zuzevich, LMFT, Trauma Informed Coaching & Energy Healing
California Based
Megan is a trauma informed coach, licensed therapist, and educational consultant. Growing up in a law enforcement family, Megan began her 3000 hours of post-graduate, professional licensure experience working in the correctional facilities and judicial system. After obtaining licensure, she transitioned into private practice where she began working with first responders after critical incidents utilizing Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). As clients began having access to images and information that could only come from the unconscious part of the psyche, Megan dove deep into understanding the unconscious and began deeply resonating with the work of Carl Jung.
Trauma is not the event that happened to us. It is the impact the experience has on the nervous system. Megan looks at trauma not through a clinical lens of diagnosis and what’s wrong but rather a deep understanding that the physiological experience of trauma is purposeful and post-traumatic growth is available to everyone. Megan redefines trauma through neuroscience, epigenetics, physiology, and soul work, allowing clients to truly reconnect with themselves after adverse experiences.
Megan utilizes an integrative approach that includes EMDR, parts work, and various forms of energy work including Reiki and muscle sensitivity testing to clear stagnant emotions held in the body. Megan works with individuals and offers group immersive experiences in a remote setting. Group immersive experiences with Departments on-site are available with advanced planning.
It’s an honor to guide my clients through their unconscious mind and help them integrate the parts of themselves that allow them to return to their authentic nature and wholeness. Feel free to reach out with any questions if you’re curious about what our work together could look like.
