If it’s showing up anywhere,
it’s likely showing up everywhere.
Let’s get to the root of the issue.
-
On paper, things look good — but something feels “off.” You’ve achieved success, but it no longer feels satisfying, and you’re unsure what to do next.
-
You’re busy, constantly working, and checking things off the list, but at the end of the day, you’re left wondering if any of it really matters. You want to know your effort is building something that lasts.
-
When people aren’t aligned, progress is slow and painful. Miscommunication, unmet expectations, and repeated mistakes drain your time and energy.
-
You want to feel like you belong at the table, not like you’re faking it. You’re craving the confidence to lead boldly, make decisions with certainty, and step fully into your role.
-
You’re craving a clear path forward. You want to know exactly where you’re headed and how to get there — without second-guessing every step. You want to stop chasing everything and start focusing on what actually matters. You’re craving a clear, organized plan that moves you, your life, or your team toward a meaningful goal.
-
You’re tired of surface-level success and want to build something that lasts. You’re craving impact — something with meaning, purpose, and significance that goes beyond achievement.
Let’s work together in a way that works best for you.

Coach & Strategist
Hey! I’m Sunshine — founder of The Groundwater Group. I started this work because I saw too many people burning themselves out, striving to "keep up" instead of building something that truly matters.
I wanted to create a space where people could slow down, get honest about what they really want, and move forward with purpose.
Our mission is simple: help people build lives they love and leave legacies they’re proud of.
No fluff. No empty performance. Just real progress where it counts - in life, at home, and through their teams and organizations.

While the team was talented and hardworking, they struggled to stay aligned, and the business owners found themselves constantly putting out fires instead of leading with intention.

Together, we established a clear operational strategy, defined key objectives, and created an accountability framework to sustain progress. By the end of the engagement, the business had a centralized strategy, stronger team alignment, and clear accountability measures to keep them moving forward.
