Midlife+ Women’s Health & Well-being Coach
Hi there, and welcome. I’m truly glad you found your way here.
If you’re a woman leader in midlife or beyond who has spent years showing up for everyone else, your work, your family, your community, and you are now feeling that quiet nudge to finally show up for yourself, I want you to know you are not alone.
I work with leaders, professionals, caregivers, and change-makers who have spent years putting others first and are now ready to turn that care inward.
Over the past 10 years, I have supported countless midlife+ women leaders in prioritizing their health and well-being. When women leaders take better care of themselves, they do more than thrive personally, they create a ripple effect that challenges gender norms, strengthens leadership pipelines, and advances gender equity. These values are central to my mission and to many of my clients as well.
Through phone-based coaching, I offer a safe, supportive space where you can explore what well-being means for you. Together, we tap into your midlife wisdom, reevaluate your core values, and strengthen your motivators, all essential steps toward creating lasting, meaningful change.
My approach is holistic, inclusive, and deeply personal. In addition to over a decade of professional coaching experience, I have a Master’s degree in Kinesiology (MSc) and hold a Professional Certified Coach (PCC) credential, along with certifications as a National Board-Certified Health & Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC) and a Personal Trainer (CPT). I have also earned a Professional Development Award in Gender & Sexuality from Toronto Metropolitan University, which informs my gender-inclusive and equity-centred lens.
As an LGBTQ+ woman of colour, I understand the power of lived experience. It is what allows me to meet my clients with empathy, authenticity, and a deep respect for their journey.
If you are ready to put your own needs on equal footing with everyone else’s and create a life of greater authenticity, vitality, and purpose, I would be honoured to support you.
If you are feeling curious about what it might be like to work together, I invite you to book a time to connect during my Office Hours.
This is a no-pressure conversation to see if I am the right coach for you at this point in your journey, and whether I currently have space in my practice. If it is a match, we can get started right away. And if not, I will gladly refer you to someone who might be a better fit for your needs.
If we do decide to work together, I look forward to walking alongside you as you transform your health, and in turn, your life, because it is your turn to take care of you.
P.S. Feel free to check out what some of my clients had to say about the work we did together.
I acknowledge that I carry out my work on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the Coast Salish peoples – xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), Stó:lō and Səl̓ ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
