Diana Dodd RN, CHC

Offering faith-based coaching, peaceful hospitality & restorative retreats for women and families.

About

Hello and welcome!

I’m Diana Dodd—a Registered Nurse and Certified Health & Life Coach who believes some of life’s greatest healing begins when people feel truly seen, heard, and supported.

Through Garden of Life Coaching & Retreat, I offer faith-based coaching for women through every season of life. Whether you’re navigating motherhood, changing relationships, career decisions, midlife, or caregiving—or simply wondering what comes next—you don’t have to figure it all out alone.

Our conversations offer space to pause, feel truly listened to, and reconnect with what matters most. Together, we’ll explore what’s keeping you stuck, build habits that support your well-being, and identify practical steps toward a life that reflects your faith, values, and hopes.

For more than twenty years, I served women and families as a hospital nurse, including many years in Labor & Delivery and Postpartum care. Those experiences, alongside my own journey through caregiving, faith, and personal growth, shaped the compassion and attentive listening I bring to coaching today.

A place to breathe.

That’s the heart behind Gardenview, our peaceful property in the Chattanooga area. Here, I welcome women for in-person coaching and small gatherings, and offer inviting accommodations for individuals and families seeking a restful stay. Coaching is also available by phone, so we can connect from wherever you feel most comfortable.

Whether you’re ready for a new direction or simply need room to exhale, I’m so glad you’re here.

Let’s begin with a conversation. Explore the options below and book a Free Discovery Call so we can talk about what you’re looking for and how I might support you.

Cheering you on,

Diana 🌿

Testimonials

"I now have confidence in having a voice and standing in my own truth. Diana gave me the support and outside perspective that enabled ah-ha moments! She is supportive, loving, caring, and provided a safe space to be vulnerable. Her support met me where I was and gave me tangible things to consider being mindful of while working towards my goals. My program helped me by giving an outside perspective. I'm now easier on and more accepting of myself. I feel more confident about where I am because of all the goals I met."

"I am empowered! Diana gave me the tools to calm my body down. To breathe. To have gratitude. I now look for the good in everything. Diana is an encourager. She loves God, listens well, is beautiful and helped me any way she could. She also provided a beautiful, clean, well decorated area to unload and get filled back up. Diana encouraged me to walk through doors God had opened. She built me up. Now I know I can do it!"
