Treasurer

Emily Roberts is a heart-centered coach, helping guide women to their truest self, through the windows of their inner knowing, body messages, and heart wisdom. Her clients dismantle limiting beliefs and lean vulnerably, yet courageously into fully loving and embracing themselves as the amazing women they are! From that place of empowerment, they claim their future path in life with confidence, clarity, and heart.  In addition to coaching, Emily is a Clinical Acupressure practitioner and a Reiki master and practices out of Poynette, WI.  She started volunteering on the ICF-WI Education Committee in July 2020 and has loved being a part of the coaching community!

Member At Large

Matt Ley has been a certified ICF coach for three years and sees this as a continuation of the work he has been doing throughout is circuitous career. He has spent time as a software engineer, communications officer for Lutheran Disaster Response, supporting social justice work in Israel-Palestine, as a pastor, managing supply chain and operations for a global medical supply company, and most recently as a consultant helping growing organizations manage change. Through it all the same desire to be present with people and lead with curiosity as he partners with them to identify and take action on their goals has been his greatest joy. He is also the author of the book “Manage Your Gaps: Reclaiming the Awesomeness of Management”. If he’s not consulting or coaching, you can find him deep in thought listening to a book on a bike packing trip or annoying his three kids with all of those curiosity-borne questions.
