You can experience extraordinary happiness and have a positive impact in the world - without giving up everything you love about your ordinary life!

You've worked hard to create this life that most people aspire to.  You feel like you're doing everything right. You work hard, you have and do the things you want, you help others when you can, you try to do most of the things the experts advise you to do. It's comfortable and familiar and secure and good and what society expects from you; you know...ordinary. You are satisfied at some level, so why does it feel like there's something missing?

Rest assured that whatever's missing isn't because you're an ordinary person living an ordinary life . Ordinary is a great foundation. Friends, family, fun, security, health and freedom all contribute to happiness.

You also don't have to be afraid that you'll have to quit your job, leave your relationship, move to a foreign land, or win the lottery in order to find what's missing. Extraordinary happiness does not come from making extraordinary changes externally. Extraordinary happiness comes from making extraordinary changes within yourself.

“If you pursue happiness, you are an ordinary person. If happiness pursues you, you are an extraordinary person. Do not chase happiness; let it chase you.”
Peter Deunov, Spiritual Master

The Core of Extraordinary Happiness is...

1).      Knowing your true, natural self

2).      Having the confidence to live your natural self through your daily actions and perspectives

3).     Celebrating your unique gifts and your happiness with others

What's so extraordinary about knowing yourself? You've lived with you for all your life. So it must be pretty simple, right?  So simple in fact that people just assume that they know themselves well and don't even question their level of self-awareness.

However, most people actually don't know themselves well enough to experience extraordinary happiness. Most people have been conditioned away from their natural self in order to fit in with the expectations of their families, school, work and society in general.

If you have pushed away from your true self due to a lifetime of conditioning and expectations, then feelings of confusion, dissatisfaction, frustration, and being lost are the natural consequence.

Being happy is the most generous thing you can do.

"The most revolutionary act you can commit in our society today is to be happy. That if you really want to change the world, then you be your own focus for celebration of life and let it be know, whatever it is that gives you happiness!"   Patch Adams

I'm an ordinary person, too!!!

My approach to life coaching is to view every obstacle, every challenge, every mistake as an adventure. Simply shifting this perspective can open a person up to see the possibilities for extraordinary happiness and more fulfillment. I consistently ask my clients to look for the life lessons in all their struggles and successes and apply those lessons to live more intentionally and authentically.

I truly believe that every person has a passion, a calling, a true self, authenticity, a play personality, or whatever else one may call it. I also believe that it is when we are at play, when we are free from expectations,suspend self-judgement, and let the kid in us to come out, it is then that we truly express our inner being. I love to bring a spirit of playfulness to all of my interactions with clients.

You may think that in order to work with me as your life coach, you already have to know your dreams, be aware of your values, and have a specific goal in mind. Well, I have to say that the very reason I have called my service Explore Life Coaching is that many people are at the precise point when they are ready to do some exploration, but have little idea of the direction they want to go. I love being a part of the journey of exploring dreams, exploring passions, exploring personal strengths, exploring spirituality, exploring options. This is all simply part of the adventure!

As your life adventure coach, I will work with you to explore your personal needs, values, and passions and then we'll create the path that will keep you on track to take actions that consistently honour your natural self. I will walk along side you on your journey, point out some pitfalls, be with you to find your way back from a deadend, encourage you to stop when it's time to soak in a beautiful view, and celebrate successes. I will provide you with some useful tools that you can use along the way. My intention is that once you have mastered the use of the tools, have experienced success, and have built your confidence, you will be ready to travel any path as your own best guide.

About Life Coaching

Life coaching is a fairly new profession and most people haven't experienced it, so the question "How does it work?" is often asked.

Coaching works because:

• it focuses on what the client wants
• it is based on the client’s dreams, passions, values, and goals
• it offers a supportive, co-creative relationship between a coach and a client
• the coach provides an outside view to the client to help identify strengths and opportunities for growth
• the client makes a commitment to themselves when they take the step to hire a life coach

In general, Life Coaching works because of the fundamental belief held by coaches that all people are naturally creative, resourceful, and whole and have the capacity to lead the life that they desire.

Through life coaching, you become aware of your true nature, your values and your beliefs. You are asked to assess your daily choices and behaviours to determine how consistent (or not) they are with your natural self, and then design the path that will move you in the direction of your dreams.

Life coaching is for those people who are feeling ready to make deep, meaning change in their lives. This can sometimes be very difficult because on a daily basis, we are overwhelmed with messages about how we are "supposed" to think, behave, and look. We live in a society where we can have almost anything done for us to make our lives easier. However, there comes a time in many people's lives that they begin to realize that real satisfaction, contentment and joy comes when we DO for ourselves; when we explore our dreams, discover our passions, accept our true unique nature, and create our own path for a fulfilling future.
