Coaching packages for every stage of the burnout recovery journey
for folks who feel deeply depleted...
THE RICH SOIL PACKAGE
It’s time for triage and for letting go. We need to figure out where the energy leaks in your life are and start breaking down those systems and the clever copings strategies you’ve needed to survive them (but that aren’t serving you now).
… for when the “work” is actually creative play.
THE GREENHOUSE PACKAGE
You want to recover the part of yourself that used to explore, play and make things. What that part feels tender, and needs some protection. Those new idea seeds and sprouts need a creative greenhouse. You’ve found it.
For first time entrepreneurs who need a bridge to self direction...
THE KITCHEN GARDEN PACKAGE
You have a business idea. You have motivation. You can’t wait to leave the 9-5. You have no idea where to start.
The kitchen garden is about getting the fundamentals in place. Building the structures you need to grow a business that feeds you, and also the strength and skills to care for it as it evolves (and I promise it will).
TEND THE ORCHARD PACKAGE
…for founders who need more than a partner in thought to help them steward the complex system they’ve created
You’ve created something and it has a life of it’s own now. But sometimes it feels like it’s taking over your life. You need a long term partner in thought who can help you zoom out, see the patterns, and combine coaching with, strategic planning facilitation, systems thinking, and visual note taking to help you find your best solutions. Not generic boxed advice.
And some other bits…
For new & potential clients who aren’t sure if we’re fit, or which package might suit them best. 20 min vibe-check. Your burning questions: answered.
For brand new coaches, or coaches in training who want more experienced peer support and normalization from someone who has been there.
For coaching package alumni who want to keep that touch point and drop in from time to time. Relationships take time and effort to build. I like to keep that door open.
Shall we get to know each other?
This frame work is crafted from a lot of lived experience!
I’m not an elder yet, but I got started early. Creativity has always been at the centre of everything that I do. A family value, if you will. All children are born artists, and I was lucky enough to have parents who didn’t crush that spark and let me keep being one. As I grew up, I watched my mom start small, scrappy, heartfelt businesses and support other entrepreneurial women from our kitchen table.
Looking back, I suppose it’s not that shocking that I chose to pursue unschooling at age 15, walked out of Kits High and never looked back. I threw myself into the performing arts and creative business. From acting to teaching music, I’d built half a dozen careers before age 30.
For the last 13+ years I’ve been graphic recording: capturing complex, high-stakes conversations with humans at the centre. I’ve seen some of the infinite ways cultural devastation can impact a population, and how people and even whole societies burn out of existence in systems designed to extract as much as possible.
But I’ve also seen how coming home to ourselves and rehabilitating systems both human and natural can transform lives. These are the roots that underpin my coaching work.
FAQ:
-
I don’t guarantee specific results. No coach can, and you’ve probably been burned by programs that over promise before.
Your mileage will vary because you are unique and your business and projects are unique. Our goal is going to be to get you as much clarity as possible, and to implement as much as we can so you have something to run with by the time we’re done. But this looks different for each client.
I do guarantee that I’ll show up with my whole self and all my knowledge and experience, that I will hold you gently but firmly in these first steps. The rest is up to you. -
English of course, but French is actually my first language. Quebecois, french, hein? So you’ve been warned.
You’ll have the option to choose on your intake form. -

Enjoy the free resources! I’m a huge fan of DIY and getting as far as you can under your own steam. There are book recommendations, blog posts, visual tools and more.
I’m always giving away insight and coaching-style prompts on my blog and newsletter. There’s space for you here even if you aren’t ready for one on one coaching.

Good question. My natural tendency is to leave things pretty loosey goosey. But I’ve found that my clients just don’t get good results that way.
Freedom is wonderful, but too much of it can feel like not being held or cared for. Building the kind of relationship that allows you to feel safe enough to do the work means we have to put in the time.
Once we have put in that time though, we can absolutely move to an outdoor-cat / come-as-you-please model. -
I work with clients from around the world. Sessions are on zoom and my schedule is designed for pacific time. The scheduler should allow you to select your time zone so you can see which appointment times might work for you. Fees are in CAD regardless of where you are (hurray for you folks in the US and Europe!) I do have to charge 5% GST regardless of where you are as well.

Sessions are online via zoom, or can also be over the phone. I’ve found this is the easiest thing for accessibility. I also live over the hills and far away in the mountains of BC.
When you book a session a confirmation email will arrive with the zoom link and a phone number to call, if that’s your preference.
