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.
