Hi, I’m your coach, Christine! Get to know a little about me
I’m a multi-passionate human who thrives when helping other women empower themselves to live their life the way it feels good to THEM!
I’m here to help women set themselves free of obligation and people pleasing, so they can start saying yes to more of what gets them excited and live a life they enjoy!
I support and guide women to discover their own power within - but I didn’t always know how to help in this way. It wasn’t until I hit the lowest of lows and experienced one of the biggest career failures in my life to realize the most important work I was here to do was on myself.
For a long time I was caught up in being a version of myself that everybody wanted - constantly seeking their approval and seldom listening to my own inner wisdom and desire for myself. I didn’t even realize I was people pleasing my life away - until I got so caught up in trying so hard to prove my worth, and saying yes to every request that came my way, that it cost me everything - my business for one (and everything I was working toward), my pride (hello ego), my mental health (spiralling shame and unworthiness), and tail spinning self doubt that had me wanting to give up on myself. I hit rockbottom and found myself in burn out for the third time in my adult life - I didn’t know if there was anywhere to go from there.
After months of healing, and realigning myself with what really mattered to me, I began to do life differently. I allowed myself to say no to the things that sucked my life force, and began saying yes to more of what lit me up. The experience was life-changing. Every time I said no to what didn’t align - I felt empowered, and every time I said yes to what did - I felt energized!
It wasn’t easy at first, because like many of you, I am a woman who was taught to say yes to everyone else - and never be “selfish” enough to consider my own needs above others. It took lots of practice - finding ways to say no that were still kind and considerate, AND allowing myself the space to do more of what felt good and less of what felt like an obligation.
As a result I began to have more energy, felt happier, felt lighter, and I began to get to know myself again. I also started to notice that I seldom had feelings of bitterness, frustration and resentment. Instead, I felt liberated, free and empowered.
I knew deep in my core that I wanted to help other women who had felt like me, learn how to make themselves a priority too. I wanted to give women permission to rediscover themselves outside of the roles they were playing in their lives - mother, wife, employee, career woman, daughter, board member, entrepreneur, family event planner, caretaker, etc… and realize that they can still help others, but they don’t have to say yes to everything. That they can ask for what they need and want, and say no to others to create space for themselves.
Since early 2023 I have been providing one-to-one, and group coaching for women who want to empower themselves to live happier, fuller lives that feel balanced and energizing. In addition, I’ve been hosting local events that bring like-hearted women together to see that there are others who want more too - and that we aren’t alone in what we experience. It’s also my passion to bring my story to stages to inspire more women to discover how much more fulfilment and enjoyment is available for them.
This has been the greatest gift - My failures taught me to take a closer look at what I was working so hard for. I now see my “failures” as my teachers who have shown me that I can lift others up and share these valuable tools to creating a more fulfilling life, while also living true to myself with the lessons and tools that I teach.
