Jeremiah Bowling

Founder

I am, and always have been, an educator first. My personal mission is to follow Siddiqi's directive: "Be who you needed when you were younger." This succinct  bit of philosophy shapes my approach to both coaching and consulting: fostering a sense of self-awareness and understanding, empathy and compassion—all while placing a premium on authenticity.

My own educational journey includes degrees from Harvard University and Emerson College, and then a career in education from a teacher/instructor at the middle school, high school, and college levels, to serving as head of several schools across the US. I've honed my skills cultivating healthy, effective growth—sustainable development guided by insightful strategy—not just organizationally, but also with students and families, faculty and staff, and individuals in a non-educational setting.

CANOPY Coaching and Consulting focuses on growth for all, but I specialize in empowering students and adults with neurodivergence, those who experience mental and behavioral wellness challenges, and also in navigating issues that face the LGBT+/queer community, which happen to be three communities that I myself inhabit. My background in strong and effective leadership, along with my experience facilitating student and family growth, enables me to customize strategies that nurture individual, familial, and organizational success. Let’s work together to create a space where authenticity thrives and potential is actualized.

The Growth of Canopy

At its roots, CANOPY is about growth: well-managed, strategic, and healthy growth for students and families, individuals and organizations. Coaching and consulting services at CANOPY focus on project-based progress. I help clients identify specific areas in their personal and professional lives that they want to better align with their own expectations and goals, helping to turn dreams and desires into reality.

Sustainable growth is about first identifying the gap between where you are as an individual or organization, and where you want to be: fulfilling your core mission and purpose, achieving an authentic sense of self. I draw from my experience as an educator and professional growth strategist and collaborate with you to map out a path to success.

Ultimately, CANOPY Coaching and Consulting is about you. About your organization. About authenticity. About compassion—but also about drive and success. The drive to achieve what you want in life and to realize your potential. CANOPY is all about healthy, sustained growth.

Located on Massachusetts's North Shore, just north of Boston, CANOPY Coaching and Consulting provides both local in-person and remote Zoom-based services.
