The Start and the Pivot
Growing up on a farm in rural Ontario and being the youngest of seven children, for better and worse, helped me cultivate a willful and determined personality. I made a decision early on that fueled an intense desire to be "successful." Admittedly, this was without any clear idea of what success meant to me or what I was truly seeking.
After surviving cancer and toughing out a divorce, it would eventually become clear that my ambition had no true soul, conviction, or personal meaning. In the meantime, I stubbornly continued to go at life "full throttle" and moved towards big money and the fast track. My heart and intuition were sending me invaluable information about balance - but I was far beyond listening!
I went on to spend fifteen years in the world of corporate finance and marketing in Canada. Occasionally I engaged in marketing and business contracts abroad as well. It was the rich diversity of culture and the overall sameness of humanity that helped feed my soul and get me thinking about changing the direction of my life. I continued to carry out my well-crafted plans for success when came face to face with the fact that I had become truly and profoundly unhappy. I was a woman with endless ambition, but no real inspiration, purpose or joy. I desperately needed to transform my life – but I was going to do it intentionally this time!
Intentional Transformation Sparks Global Alignment
I completed my Master's thesis on "The Dynamics of Change," studied mediation and conflict resolution, and became a Certified Change Practitioner. I was consulting to a variety of companies when the seed of Global Alignment started to sprout and take form. I focused on personal development, my sense of purpose, and refined trust of my intuition. It was all the fuel I needed to finally become a registered and licensed Counselling Therapist, Transformational Coach, and Private Practice Business Mentor.
I realized that what I was missing was a purpose that spoke to the absolute CORE of who I was. Cultivating and naming this pivotal piece of intentional, conscious minded living and business ignited a spark in me that has continually fueled my vision for positive change. We are gifted epiphany moments when our eyes open up. It was not about what business I was doing – rather who I was doing that business!
Over the years, I was lucky and grateful enough to realize the natural gravitational clustering of like-minded people. I assembled a skillful and dynamic team to nurture our individual and collective shared vision. Together we assist companies, practitioners, and people to create their own unique vision of mindful living, social business, and wellness. We know each person holds the powerful ability and heart to directly impact the wellbeing of others and we want to support them in that process. For us, it is the act of helping people and practitioners like you that forever enriches our lives! Together, we can radically improve the quality and alignment of our world right here, right now!
