Hello! My name is Rachel. I’m a coach, astrologer, teacher, dog mom (my firstborn Mabel is pictured here), and founder of Quarter Moon Coaching.

I’ve always been obsessed with transformation and self-discovery. I got my BA in Psychology at UCLA (Go Bruins!) and got my coaching start in the health and fitness space. Over the last seven years, I have become obsessed with helping others connect with their authentic desires, discover their unique potential, and take confident, aligned action toward their goals. Here's the story of how I got here…

After graduating college, I spent the first five years of my career climbing the corporate ladder at a major record label. I regularly clocked 10-hour days, cried in the bathroom more times than I care to admit, and pushed myself to the point of exhaustion. I realized that this corporate girlboss fever dream was NOT my calling.

I was faced with a decision — Do I continue down this path, feeling drained and unfulfilled by a “stable” career that made me sound cool and successful? Or do I take a leap of faith, get curious, and take the time to figure out who I am and what it is that I truly want?

Somewhere in the midst of my girlbossing, I started lifting at a magical, inclusive gym community called The Phoenix Effect. Eventually, I worked at the front desk to help pay my bills while figuring out next steps. It was there that my love for fitness and transformation grew. Before I knew it, I was coaching classes, taking on private clients, teaching workshops, and speaking at corporate events.

As a person who has never met a personality framework she didn’t like (enneagram, human design, you name it), I have always felt drawn to astrology. It’s a powerful framework of understanding that gives us the language to better understand ourselves, the people around us, and quality of time that we are living in. The more I began to understand my own birth chart and the way current sky transits interact with it, the more empowered I felt to listen to my intuition, embrace my authentic desires, and fully embody the person I was always meant to become. Which ultimately meant taking a scary yet rewarding leap: 

In 2024, I decided that it was time to spread my wings, and I started my own business, Quarter Moon Coaching. It became a container where I could continue to nurture my passion for personal training while expanding into new modalities that feel authentic to me, creating even more offerings that help my clients gain clarity, courage, and direction.

In 2025, I incorporated my longtime love for astrology into my business offerings, focusing on in-depth personal astrology chart readings as well as hosting immersive astrology experiences both in person and online. Since then, I've had the privilege of popping up everywhere from cozy bars on Sunset Blvd, to luxury storefronts on Rodeo Drive, to intimate corporate retreats in wine country. My mission is to teach clients how to use astrology as a practical tool for self-awareness, confidence, and embodying their most authentic selves.

Transformation doesn’t stop at the self—it creates strong, joyful, and supportive communities. When we step into our authentic power, it invites those around us to do the same. Living out our fullest, most joyful, most authentic expression is a powerful form of resistance.

Whether you’re ready to ditch your toxic corporate job and find your true calling, get so strong you can flip a car and survive the apocalypse, or simply get to know yourself better and have SO MUCH FUN while doing it, you’ve come to the right place. Check out the Services section of my site to see the current offerings and learn more about how we can work together. I look forward to supporting you on your journey toward self-discovery!
