My Intention:

My intention is to create a sense of community and hold a safe and emotionally empowering space for teaching the necessary skills to foster courage, confidence, compassion, communication and competence and for lifetime of healthy relationships with others and most importantly, with self.

There is great significance in taking a proactive approach by intentionally teaching teens and preteens the invaluable interpersonal relationship(s) skills and strategies so they're prepared and more fully equipped to navigate the inevitable challenges of life as a young woman.

Investing in your child’s self-development and interpersonal relationships skills will be singlehandedly one of the most worthy investments you make in them as these skills will guide and empower them in every interaction they encounter throughout the rest of their life.

My Vulnerable Back Story: (Optional To Read - LONG)

(and why I’m DEEPLY passionate about teaching these invaluable life skills)

As a teenage girl, I STRUGGLED with low self-esteem and a lack of interpersonal relationships skills. I went where the wind blew me - so to speak - and found myself in all sorts of scary and unsafe situations. Often seeking external validation (looking for love in all the wrong places) and deriving my self-worth through external circumstances (what I internalized based other people’s thoughts and opinions of me.)

It led me down a road of getting mixed up in the WRONG Crowd, being a victim of relentless bullying, getting arrested at 14, dropping out in grade 9, making risky relationship choices, experimenting with substances, dangerous choices like hick hiking and sneaking out etc. Pretty much everything a parent would DESPARATELY want their teen to avoid and stay FAR far away from.

Without having the insights or skills to advocate and express my concerns or challenges as a teen, I navigated such rocky terrain on my own. My parents were unaware of the depths of my despair.

Later faced with a scary brain tumor diagnosis and still unequipped to cope with my emotions or life’s hardships, the struggle continued.

Even through getting my life back on track, graduating high school, and college, and working in Hospice, providing End Of Life Care, I found myself in a deep dark depression wondering if this is all there was to life? Struggle then Die?

It was a grim outlook on life that was running the show, my own rock bottom experiences and inability to cope and process my emotions or manage my relationships, that’s where I realized I needed support and guidance.

It’s where I had to dig deep and where I began to build a new foundation from the ground up, based on the newly defined values and beliefs I intentionally planted within. I continued my journey of self-development by hiring a life coach and it opened my eyes to a whole new world of healing and what's available to me.

For the first time in my 20's, I was experiencing more emotional freedom in my mind and more harmonious and aligned relationships. I knew I was FINALLY on the right path. With such a profound transformation underway, I knew I found my calling and I decided I wanted to become a Life Coach so I could pay it forward. So I could turn my pain into my purpose and my mess into my message.

Now, after 10 years of coaching and facilitating many workshops and events, I continue to be as passionate as the first day I started. On a more personal note, with a beautiful niece who just turned 12, I can’t help but want to run this incredible workshop again in the hopes it’s spares her and any other young woman the pain and suffering I unnecessarily endured.

If I can save someone from the extra unnecessary struggle and mental health challenges that I went through by teaching these invaluable life skills, I will have fulfilled the mission of my life’s work.

One parent to another, I’m confident these skills will provide significant value and benefits to your daughter’s mental, physical and emotional wellbeing.
