Participants are invited to examine the thoughts, emotions, and behaviours that are holding them back and identify the new choices and practices that will move them toward more authentic and wholehearted living. The Daring Way™ helps people develop shame resilience skills and daily practices that transform the way they live, love, parent, and lead.

This old-school, armoured leadership has the unintended affect of keeping good people stuck in exhausting miscommunication, drama, and inefficiency.
I believe we are all leaders. The way we show up in our personal and professional relationships has far-reaching effects that can either elevate or dampen.
People who embrace a wholehearted way of living are change-makers. They create happier homes and better workplaces. Approaching life this way takes courage, compassion, authenticity, grace, and gratitude—which isn’t always easy.
I’m dedicated to helping people discover new possibilities for their lives. My workshops, group experiences, presentations, mentoring, and one-on-one coaching services are designed to facilitate deep transformation for women who crave more joy and fulfillment in every area of their busy, messy, beautiful lives.
In addition to my scheduled workshops, you can book time with me to explore any of the Daring Way™ programs one on one or with a group. It is suitable for individuals, book clubs, staff parties, youth groups, women’s gatherings and retreats. For more information on bringing this work to your team or organization go here.
Workshops and presentations can range from keynotes to one or three-day intensives. I am available to travel to your location no matter where you live in Canada. I can also bring this work to you online which means we can show up, be seen and live brave even during a pandemic.

The Gifts Of Imperfection™
“True belonging doesn’t require you to change who you are. It requires you to be who you are.” - Brené Brown.
In this course, we explore what it means to be YOU. What is it that you need to let go of in order to make room for authenticity, self-compassion, joy and much more!
Rising Strong™
“Fall down seven times, get up eight.” - Japanese Proverb
The physics of vulnerability are simple: if we are brave enough, often enough we will fall. In this course we explore the stories we tell ourselves when we are ‘face down’ in the arena and learn the tools to use to support us in getting back up with compassion and resilience.
Daring Greatly™
Daring Greatly™ is about being ‘all in’.
In this course you will explore what it takes to have the courage to be vulnerable, to be seen and heard. You’ll learn how to ask for help, to share your feelings and have the hard conversations that matter.
Bold™
Brave. be Original. Love big. Dare greatly.
A courage-building program designed specifically for adolescents. In this rich and thoughtful program we will dive into what it means to be YOU despite living in a world filled with conflicting messages trying to convince you who you ‘should’ be.
Daring Way™ programs can be customized to meet the needs of your group. Contact me and we can discuss which of these programs is right for you.
