Hello and welcome to my eWomenNetwork webpage! Thank you for giving me the opportunity to share a little of myself with you.

How can I help you? I am a registered counsellor here in British Columbia and my passion is to work with you to help you find and polish your sparkle - both as a person and/or as an entrepreneur. I use a blend of Personal Coaching and the new Trust Oriented Therapy - which is uniquely successful in developing change.

I have over 30 years of successful experience as an entrepreneur - from starting a million-dollar-a-year business as a twenty year old in an all-male environment to 16 years in advertising, marketing and copywriting (including 'online' when ecommerce - and usability, perfect for checking your own website for you? - was brand new) to co-developing North America's first Rare Breeds Farm Park to creating a revolutionary website to help those rebuilding their lives after physical or emotional trauma.

I offer counselling and coaching in my office, in your home - and online coaching.

I also have personal experience of both serious physical and emotional trauma, which helps me to understand your issues. Let me show you how to get your life B.A.C.K. faster and stronger...

Recently I have developed a website with the intention that, together with a laptop computer, you will have your own virtual assistant to help you rebuild your life after trauma - at no cost to you.

Find the right therapists; join a fabulous support group online; read relevant articles; submit your own story and tell us about the strategies you've found to work so that you can live well.

And if you would like some online coaching or counselling, I am always very happy to hear from you.

As entrepreneurs we sometimes need an outside eye to help us brainstorm or to see how we can transform entrepreneurial passion into reality. Very little excites me more and I look forward to hearing from you and teasing out your goals and dreams - and build concrete steps to achieve them.

My coaching and counselling is a blend of Entrepreneurial Passion, Personal Coaching, Personal Experience and the new Trust Oriented Therapy and I would be happy to explain how I would tailor it to fit your unique needs.

Light the FireWithinYou from the spark I would love to share with you

In addition, there is an amazingly simple but very important formula that applies equally to entrepreneurs as it does to those rebuilding their lives after severe trauma (read about human 'colour' on ReBuildingYou.com) that bring completeness and peace... There really is nothing quite like it to help reveal your shining beauty, heal your soul and lead you to feeling truly happy again.

We are born in relationship and our instincts are to grow, work and play - in relationship.

We need a human witness to our passage through life.

People need people to grow and heal.

How to synchronize 'you' with your entrepreneurial dream and work with that fire within you until you glow.

How to comb through strategies and needs and goals, naming and prioritizing, until everything falls into the ‘perfect place for you’.

How to explore and understand your needs, nurture yourself and create more peace and success in every area of your life.

How to get the support you need with the efficiency - and from the privacy - of your own home or my office.

How to take back control of your life, now that the doctors have sent you home.

How to pick up the pieces and enjoy a happy and thriving life again...

Entrepreneurs whose personal light is bright - but with more focus they could burn a veritable hole...

Human beings who want to continue to grow and explore their needs, dreams and desires - so that they can glow with success...

Alumni of trauma - emotional or physical - who need a helping hand to polish their life back to shining brilliance...
