We are all different!
My Wellness Intelligence model is a holistic framework that I designed to integrate various dimensions of well-being, guiding you towards a more conscious, aligned, and authentic lifestyle and workstyle. It actually works. You can be one of the ones to prove me right! This model brings together my core elements:
Ethical Depth
I encourage actions and decisions that are rooted in integrity and respect for oneself, others, and the environment. I prove that you can be goal oriented and achieve success when you have kinder and more connected living and working practices, mindful (and joyful) consumption, and foster healthy relationships. Radical trust and transparency are always in play.
Spritual Insights
I incorporate spiritual awareness and practices to connect with a higher sense of purpose and inner peace in all of my work whether we work together in private sessions or in community. I help you unlock a new dimension of confidence and possibility in yourself. Working together is about defining and reaching your goals while enriching your life, finding your true groove, and creating a legacy of well-being for yourself and those around you.
Counter Culture Approach
I’m not for everyone. I challenge conventional norms and embrace “alternative”, often kinder and authentic ways of living, working and healing. I am on a mission to empower you to be your own best expert, and my work involves encouraging critical thinking, innovation, and the courage to live (and work) to your true values rather than societal expectations. It works if you do!
Holistic Integration
Everything is connected … all eight dimensions of wellness … physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, financial, environmental, social and intellectual. It’s a balanced approach that doesn’t focus on any one thing because EVERYTHING is connected. This is how I create the conditions for success – some have called it magic, resilience, and happiness.
Practical Application
Ideas and practices are amazing, but how can they be applied and stick? I have developed and am constantly refining actionable strategies and tools that make it possible for you to make it all happen. This is where we create tangible improvements in quality of life.
RECIPROCITY
Reciprocity … the exchanging with another for mutual benefit … rewarding kind actions with kind actions. I am dedicated to supporting my local and greater community in all kinds of ways. I take great pride in participating in a number of philanthropic projects and I commit a large portion of my time to pro bono work.
How else can I be part of the solution? If there’s something I can do to support your purpose-driven and/or not-for-profit project or organization, please get in touch. Amazing things happen when we show up for each other! We are BETTER TOGETHER!
CERTIFIED B CORP
I am proud to have been a Founding Canadian B Corp because I believe that good people, doing good things should stick together to support each other. I hope that the B Corporation Community can be a catalyst for sustainable and ethical businesses to connect and collaborate with each other, bringing about constant positive change. I achieved this amazing certification by exceeding rigorous standards of social and environmental performance. I am delighted to have earned a high Composite B Score even attaining excellence in many areas.
MY Commitment to C
With decades in this business (I’m not that old, really), I realize even more, that as I’ve grown in this great big world of ours, with clients around the globe, that the world actually gets smaller and smaller every day.
We all connect and collide with each other in so many different ways and places and I continue to believe we are better together. So, I thank you for being “here” for me and with me. Your enthusiasm and support in consultation and in The Wellness Intelligence Collective has kept me busy and you’re the reason that I remain passionate about all that I do, and that I am inspired to do more.
I originally wrote and shared this in 1999 and have made very few little edits. I feel that it’s an important reminder for me and hopefully will be meaningful to you too.
Commit
I will continue to commit myself to being a champion for change … and your biggest champion too.
Care
I will continue to care about you and your business as if it were my own, because we’re all in this together.
Communicate
I will continue to communicate candidly (read: full transparency, no bullshit). I pledge to always tell people what I believe they might need to hear rather than what they want to hear.
Capacity
I will continue to try and expand my capacity for tolerance and patience, and expand my capacity for new information to be able to give you more.
Community
I will continue to build my own community and to enrich the community at large. I will continue to support you in growing your own community. If you are not yet a member of The Wellness Intelligence Collective, please join here (it’s free and open to all).
Connect
I will continue to connect you with others who can support you and who you can support, bringing about mutually beneficial relationships.
Charity
I will continue to donate much of my time to doing pro-bono work, because passion-based, meaningful, charitable work makes me happy and supports so many doing better for our shared world.
Clarity
I will continue to confuse you, but only in order to bring about clarity.
Change
I will continue to evolve myself, and will also continue to promote change in your life and work. Transitions, transformations, and growth that can be hard and be so worth it.
Coach, Consult, Concierge
This is what sessions with me are all about. I will continue to ensure that the strategic blend of all of these roles working together for you, increases your efficiencies, revenue, health and happiness. And we all want more of that, right?
Common Sense
I will continue to believe that we all just need to use our own common sense to make our own best choices.
Calm
I will continue to try and be calm, share strategies to be calm, although I like to find time and space to be outraged too. All feelings are for feeling! : )
Create
I will continue to find a way to create even more titles, relationships and positions to add to my list.
Choices
I will continue to applaud your choices, and will continue to offer you choices based on what is right for you. I don’t believe in “shoulding” around here.
Curiosity
I will continue to be curious myself and pique your inquiry and curiosity too. We learn by questioning everything!
Champion
I will continue to try and be your biggest champion. It’s so much fun. Thank you for the opportunity.
Life is about hanging on, letting go, holding back, giving it all, staying put, and evolving. So, here’s to saying YES, to having the good fortune that we make our own best choices, and to honest and trusted relationships that bring about change for us all.
