About Diana
Diana’s passion and experience of the ancient and practical wisdom contained within the Enneagram combined with her presence-based inquiry approach to coaching comes to light in her teaching focus and style. Diana has been a professional coach working with individuals and teams since 1998 and served as senior faculty and curriculum designer for the Deep Coaching Institute, and faculty member of San Francisco State University’s Core Strength Coaching Program. She is currently the Experiential Learning Director for Deep Living Lab, a non-profit providing transformational experiences through a wide-variety of programs. Her joy in this work comes from witnessing people experience their more expansive nature and making choices that create a more just and generative way of living. Radical acceptance of self and others offers a powerful backdrop for meaningful change.
Diana’s work draws from an extensive discipline of yoga, meditation, and scriptural studies, including Kashmir Shaivism and Vedanta. She studied in India with Siddha Yoga master Swami Muktananda and then spent the next eight years traveling with him, serving as faculty in teacher training programs while cultivating her own practice. Looking to bring her training and life experiences into the business world she co-founded O'Donnell Redmond, Inc., which specialized in working with leaders and their organizations to create collaborative, fulfilling work environments. Her ability to teach and guide other coaches in working with greater depth and clarity with their clients as well as teaching essential coaching skills to leaders and managers is foundational to her work.
