About Me
Welcome! Thank you so much for your interest in my coaching services. You are not here by accident. I have been working with individuals, in varying capacities over the past 30 years and have seen proven results in the methods of teaching, training and personal life growth planning I use.
During my 26 years in church ministry, both paid and volunteer, I discovered that working with people is a special joy and a privilege. As a former Pastor, Associate Pastor, and Children’s and Youth Pastor I have counselled innumerable individuals and groups toward their God-given potential. I have also had many other roles in various churches including Instructor, Administrator, and Executive Assistant. Working with people in the Church has greatly grown the mentor and coach within me.
Through decades of interspersed experience in business, before, after and around my ministerial work, I have developed interpersonal and teaching abilities as well as gained insight into how to overcome the “real world” challenges people in the work force face today. I am an International Trainer who has been in front of audiences of a few and of thousands.
Furthermore, I have been an entrepreneur for over 30 years and I have also worked in the corporate sector for a number of companies, in roles such as Distribution Manager, Account Manager, Sales Representative, Buyer, Merchandiser, Assistant Marketing Manager, Executive and Administrative Assistant, and a leader in Event Management. I have held various positions with a well-recognized abuse-protection and awareness program within the charitable organization sector. My instructional and managerial roles in the corporate sector have definitely aided in developing the teacher within me and given me insights into the business world.
People I’ve worked with have come back to me years later and expressed how the mentoring provided launched them into their dream career. Venturing out on my own to turn coaching into my own company was a natural move for me considering the vocational experience from my past and the current passion in my heart to help people realize their full, God-given potential. Since I began life-coaching, I have worked with stay-at-home moms who are frustrated and feeling trapped to find the joy in their day and I have mentored them toward healthy and happy marriages and lives. I have worked with young businessmen searching to find their calling and purpose in the workforce who have subsequently gained wisdom and direction in their life’s course. I have worked with organizations to grow and develop their people to see the path laid out before them and walk in it. I am ready and able to help YOU see, know and understand the vision God has for your life and how to walk in those God-given dreams.
What is a Coach?
By definition a coach is a person who trains, a private tutor who prepares a student, and a person who teaches and instructs. A mentor is a wise and trusted counsellor, teacher, or an influential confidante who would be a senior sponsor or supporter. I truly believe God has given me a great gifting in both these areas of coach and mentor. I will take you through the strategic growth process of a coach, but with a heart for and love from the Lord, I am able to mentor you into reaching a relationship level that will help bring you to the other side to attain victory. You are able to do all things through Christ who strengthens you! (Philippians 4:13)
