Certifying as a CanSkate Coach with Skate Canada in 2008, I put my figure skates back on after 20 years and found my love for coaching. I can return to the exact moment standing on the ice. I heard my inner voice say, “I am going to be coaching people on a higher level.” I didn’t know what ‘higher level’ meant at the time, but I trusted my voice. I also had no idea I would be coaching balance on and off the ice.
Several years later, I certified as a Relationship Coach and joined the Holistic Healing Fair offering relationship coaching and Angel card readings. I naturally combined my love for coaching and energy work. Holistic communities all over Ontario validated my ability to coach relationships on a higher level. I am truly grateful for everyone who I have met in these past five years. I’ve shared so many laughs, tears, and hugs all through meaningful connection and was even blessed a few times. This is what my Live, Love, Laugh Tour is all about.
My Nurturing brand grew from a place of nurturing energy, shaped by my strong connection to Mother Moon, my astrological planet. The stars in my natal chart align powerfully with themes of visionary thinking, innovation and communication. I continually asked myself, “What tool can I contribute to mental wellness?” After hundreds of conversations, I discovered a general want for more work-life balance and mindfulness. I also noticed a desire to shift energetic gears more easily – from rest and restore to moving with motivation. My answer came down to practicing a skill that could benefit my findings. I created ‘The Workplace Reset’ on YouTube and podcast platforms, applying my passion for writing and energetic camera work. It’s designed to help ‘actively rest’ our minds and recharge motivation in the workplace. Many moons ago I worked long hours in the film industry. This reset was also a gift to my younger self who could have really used it! The Reset has evolved into a multi-purpose wellness tool. A guilt-free, mental healthy workbreak, a personal discovery tool and a practice of changing energetic gears. The most recent feedback I’ve received is that people are using the Workplace Reset to improve their sleep.
Taking a break is part of our workday. Running errands or ruminating about work-life issues is not really changing gears or taking a mentally healthy break. A Reset helps connect our mind, body and spirit for five, ten or twenty minutes during our busy day. Studies suggest actively resting our mind can promote the energy of creativity, which works alongside the energy of motivation. It can also reduce fatigue, regulate stress and improve productivity. I encourage holistic practices such as auto-writing, breathing, grounding body scans and gazing into waves with music during a Reset. All these practices come from training and workshops I’ve taken with experts over 30 years. A Reset is personal and it’s all about what’s working for us individually and changing up practices as we change. My expertise is creating energetic content, which comes from both my creator and what flows into in my life.
I encourage everyone to listen to their inner, gutsy voice. I attribute my success to listening and trusting mine. Some refer to this voice as our Guardian Angels. I thank my Angels and Spirit Guides for guiding my alignment and for the Earth Angels I have the pleasure to meet and work with. I’m honoured to share Nurturing with the Holistic Healing Fair community and support global nurturing.
