About

I am an author and trainer moving you from reactive emotions to fact-based conversations, decisions, and actions. My work is grounded in the well-documented embodied emotions and metaphor research.

Vision

"We live in an increasingly uncivil world, one that can even be hostile to what we might consider rational and good-faith discourse."
The Rt. Hon. Richard Wagner
Chief Justice of Canada

I help you begin or continue changing the conversations. “Good-faith discourse” can only happen when you recognize the role your (often hidden) emotions play in your opinions and decisions. The transformation process, which is more intuitive than logical, is where I help you shine.

Simple way to remember the basics

Child wearing a cape, eye mask, and rain boots, standing with their hands on their hips, in front of a large old tree with very large roots.
Roots Out Your Boots!

Imagine strong tree roots grounding you into the earth.

As the sunlight shines in a blue sky, the flower goes from closed, to partly open, to fully open.
One With The Sun!

Picture yourself growing up and into the sun to feel connected.

Child smiling with their arms spread wide, as large soap bubbles float all around them.
Bright Light Bubble!

Visualize the sun filling you up and spreading out far to create your own positive personal space.
