Hello! I’m Jennifer
I have been doing my own personal work and supporting others in their healing, growth, and transformation for over 20 years. I have worked as a teacher, a social worker and counsellor, and as an Energy Yoga and Brain Education instructor.
And, now as an Energy and Life Coach, I support women like you.
This is my story
Part of me just wanted to crawl into bed and not come out.
But another part of me told me this was an opportunity for change.
I had just returned from completing a Ph.D. in Brain Education in South Korea, an opportunity I had taken after following my inner guidance.
Even though I had completed my Ph.D., I was exhausted, was experiencing relationship challenges, and felt judged for having followed what had felt like a calling for me.
I felt shame about the relationship, financial, and health challenges I had experienced in the past 5 years, not being able to show up as my best self, and not being able to continue on this path.
I felt like I had failed.
And, I wasn’t sure what I was going to do next.
I thought, “That’s it for personal and professional growth and bettering myself for me!” I looked into getting a job doing manual labour so I wouldn’t have to interact with people or think too much and could make some money and take some classes in my spare time.
Thankfully, I listened to the other part of me and got support to use this time as an opportunity – to see what was asking to be changed in me and my life and to take responsibility for my part in what I had created and for making the changes I wanted.
I continued a healing and growing journey that I had already been on for almost 20 years, and the training I had done as a social worker and counsellor, and yoga and Brain Education instructor.
With a new focus.
Working with coaches and mentors, I began to value myself more for my unique gifts in the world; to see and transform old patterns, stories, and beliefs that had been contributing to my past and present experiences; and to create more of what I wanted in my life based on who I truly was.
And, instead of pursuing a factory job, I decided to start a business and to use the process I had taken myself through to support other women in their own transformations.
Just getting started in my business and supporting others was a huge accomplishment and gave me direction and purpose. But, I continued to struggle and knew I needed more individualized support.
That’s when, in addition to the personal work I was doing, I started an intensive training program for Highly Sensitive Entrepreneurs and discovered I was a HSP (Highly-Sensitive Person).
I started looking at my business and my life and past experiences through new eyes. I began to understand that I was different and needed to do things differently.
I have now been supporting women for over 5 years through coaching and my work has evolved as I have and to better meet the needs of clients.
I still encounter challenges, but I am much better at managing my energy and taking care of my needs.
I am more aware of my feelings and the past wounds and stories that keep me stuck and can better work with them, including guilt, shame, regret, and a sense of “not enough”.
I take action from a much more grounded, connected, and aligned place.
My relationships with myself, with others, and with my life, work, time, and money have improved. And, I see my process of change as more supportive rather than such a struggle.
Even though it doesn’t look anything like I thought it “should”, I know I am on my path, I am in the perfect place for me, and that as I take just the next step, the next step will be revealed.
The transformation I’ve taken myself and my clients through is everything that’s in my unique coaching process and programs.
Here’s what this process creates for you…
Appreciate YOU and Your Experiences
You will get to know yourself and appreciate who you are and what you have to share, take better care of yourself , stay present and notice what is happening for you in a loving way, so you can stay connected to yourself and continuously transform, grow and evolve.
Use What’s Happening for YOU
You will be willing to look at what’s not working as an opportunity to see what is being asked to be healed and shifted for you. By doing your own work, you will promote healing and growth in yourself, others, and the world.
Take Heart-Connected Clear Next Steps
You will be able to work with and move through resistance using your intuition and staying connected to your heart, taking next steps towards the changes you desire and need to support you to continually move forward and see the possibilities. You will feel more confident and lighter and taking action will feel easier as a result.
Transform Your Relationships
You will shift old patterns and connect with and support yourself and others in a way that promotes growth and authentic connection. You will create a desirable schedule for yourself and feel more alive, balanced, energized, and supported by others, time and money and therefore able to connect with others from a place of fulfillment.
Stay Connected to the Process
You will more deeply trust your inner guidance to lead the way, take next steps being open to and knowing you are being supported and guided every step of the way, and believe in yourself and your ability and power to co-create the life you truly want. You will recognize the contribution you are making to others and the world through your ongoing and deepening transformation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why work with a coach 1:1?
Working 1:1 with an aligned coach or mentor allows you to make changes in a more aligned and accelerated way. And supports you within the container of the coaching relationship and your program – your calls and the work you do between calls all supports you with consistent, ongoing practice and therefore growth. Furthermore, working with a coach 1:1 means you can’t hide out in group programs or just push through without being seen. You are supported to see your ongoing growth and lovingly challenged to see when your patterns are getting in the way, all in support of your ongoing transformation.
How is working with a coach different than working with a therapist or talking to a friend, colleague, or family member?
Coaching supports you to take action on the changes you want to create in your life. It is not just for processing what is happening for you, although you may be supported to process things yourself as part of you taking next steps. Coaching is also not a place to complain, blame, or just share and stay in “story”. Powerful, high-level coaching provides a safe space to share what is happening, take personal responsibility, and ask for and receive support and accountability to take the next steps towards the changes you want to create in your life.
Do you support your clients with current or ongoing mental health issues?
Although coaching supports healing, growth, and transformation at all levels – physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual – it is not primarily for processing or receiving support for mental health issues. Coaching is for those who are ready to make or continue making changes in themselves and their lives. If you need support primarily for an ongoing mental health diagnosis or current mental health issue, please reach out to the appropriate supports in your community.
If you are receiving support for an ongoing or current mental health diagnosis or issue, coaching can support the effectiveness of therapy. If you are interested in receiving coaching support to create real change, please use the contact form to request a quick call with me. That way, I can hear more about what has you interested in receiving coaching support and see if it makes sense to have a further conversation.
Why work with a coach? Can’t I just take classes, online programs, read books and articles, watch videos, follow people on social media, and listen to podcasts?
All of these can be helpful resources in your healing and growth. As a lifetime learner myself, I understand the value of learning from other resources. What I’ve come to know for myself and through supporting clients, is that sustainable change doesn’t just happen by reading a book, watching a video, or taking a program (otherwise we all would have made the changes already!) In order to truly make the changes we want and need to make in ourselves and our lives, we need to move beyond awareness and understanding and we need a consistent commitment to receiving the support to keep practicing and staying with it, especially when our ego- or unconscious mind wants to stop us.
The work I do personally and with clients is also about accessing your inner guidance and then being open to other resources in support of that, rather than relying on or looking to outside sources for answers first. Trusting and aligning with your inner guidance will have you making changes in support of what you need and that are more sustainable.
What are your rates?
Great question! If you are interested in working together, after a quick call to confirm that you are a good fit, we would schedule a complimentary Clarity Call. That way, I could hear more about what is happening for you and see if the work I do makes sense for you. If it does make sense, I would share with you the options for working together, including rates, as part of the Clarity Call process.
This is resonating for me. What’s the next step?
If this is resonating for you, your next step would be to complete the contact form. Once I receive and review it and it makes sense for us to connect further, I will reach out to you and schedule a quick call. That way I can hear a bit more about what has you interested in coaching and see if it makes sense to have a further conversation and start the complimentary Clarity Call process. If this is you, I look forward to hearing from you!
