The Film
When I was a little girl in school in California, we had educational films. You know the kind with reels and a projector and the teacher had to feed the film into the reels and that was sometimes tricky, or so it seemed! Does anyone remember those? Anyway, one of...
What Does A Life Coach Do?
Many thanks to my Colleague Jason Bernic for this insightful image. People ask me every day, what does a Life Coach do? I like to say I am an Obstacle Buster, but I am not sure that answer explains it as well as this image, well we do say a picture is worth a thousand...

A Canada Day Message
Happy Canada Day. I am grateful to call this beautiful country home. One of the most powerful tools we humans have is our thoughts. Our thoughts create so much of our reality and we have something like 60,000 of them a day. The great news is we can choose...
