If you've found your way here, something brought you.
You've worked hard, you've taken the opportunities, made the moves, built a life society tells us we want. By most measures, the ones the world hands you, you're doing well.
And yet there's a question that keeps surfacing. Usually at night, or in the quiet moments where you’re not distracted by all the responsibilities in your life. An often persistent question you haven't quite been able to answer:
Is this the life I actually want? Why do I still feel lost? What is my purpose? How do I actually live a life I love?
I know these questions intimately. Not because I studied it, but because I’ve lived it and seen it across each continent my career has taken me through.
So, who am I?
The road the led me here.
The Foundation
I was born and raised in Toronto. Divorce, as it does for so many, had me grow up far quicker than I expected. I learned to survive, thrive, and find my place in the world however I could. I started therapy around the age of 16, and it has been a staple in my life ever since.
I truly began to find my sense of self in nature, sport, and camp. Swimming taught me that the body can heal things the mind hasn't caught up to yet. Nature taught me to trust the signal beneath the noise.
I noticed early that what pulled me wasn't ambition. It was exploration, adventure, and space that created something in a group that they didn't expect. I became an outdoor experience leader and facilitator by grade 11.
That pull has never left.
The Compass Within
As life unfolded, and I experienced what it meant to live and grow into independence, I often felt an inner pull, a whisper urging me to follow a different path.
It led me to Kenya, where I discovered the power of service; to New York, where I learn to swim with sharks; and to London, where I began to listen to my heart more than my plans.
I didn’t always know why I made the choices I did, only that something deeper was guiding me.
Every leap of faith became another step in learning to trust my inner compass.
Becoming All of Me
Over the years, that quiet pull led me inward. Over two decades of therapy, meditation, journalling, breathwork, exercise, cold water, and more. I began to understand that growth isn’t about adding more; it’s about remembering and unlocking what’s already within.
Nature, faith, and love have become some of my greatest teachers. Buddhism, Sufism, Islam, Rumi, so many great masters, reminding me that healing is not about fixing, it is the sacred art of listening. The more I listened, the more I began to hear that which lives beyond language.
Being & The Guide
Everything I’ve lived has become part of how I now serve & thrive. I’ve been called a soul coach; for those not called to the word soul, I like to say presence.
Through Presence-Based Coaching, 360 Leadership Circle Profile, and Wondrinn experiences, I guide groups and professionals to reconnect with the compass within, the self-generating intelligence of mind, body, and heart.
This isn’t about doing more. It’s about slowing down, listening deeply, and finding direction from within. Because when we live with presence, the path in front of us reveals itself.
My work is a reflection of all that I’ve experienced: a synthesis of psychology, spirituality, and embodied wisdom designed to help you remember what it truly means for you to be alive.
The compass is a metaphor that weaves through it all, a reminder that even when the map fades, there’s always something within you that knows the way. Welcome. We’re all just here, walking eachother home.
