In a very short amount of time Chantal helped me gain insight into what's really important to me in my life. It helped me to focus on what really matters. Before my attention was diffused, I got distracted easily and I often felt overwhelmed. Chantal's humor and pragmatic approached helped me to get real about what I truly want for myself in life. Through a simple and effective process she helped me discover my strengths, my core values and my deepest desires. Chantal helped me to discover my strengths, my core values and my deepest desires. To my surprise, right after our final session, some of my deepest desires manifested into reality. I could hardly believe it.

I tend to run before I learn how to walk. Therefore I told Chantal I wanted to do a six-month coaching instead of a three-month one. In that time, and step by step, she helped me develop tools and strategies to achieve my goals: I wanted to feel good, inside and out. Changes were gradual so I had the time to process, which only makes me have great confidence in that new habits are here to stay. Chantal was amazing at all times; she is knowledgeable, experienced and kind, and she is ready to provide encouragement at every step of the road. I do feel much better, inside and out. But, most importantly, I now have a wonderful array of tools that help me navigate the good, the rough and the hectic times.

When I first started the coaching program with Chantal, I felt stuck in a life situation that I so desperately wanted to change. Our sessions helped me to identify and to stick to what's most important to me - my core values- and to start making life decisions based on them. Each session left me feeling uplifted and empowered, that change was within reach, and with a new set of tools and exercises I could begin putting things into practice. This was of course not without challenge, but with Chantal's positive and enthusiastic guidance, it meant that it was also a fun challenge, and in a playful way I began taking steps in a new direction and in a way that feels more aligned to how I want to live my life and who I want to be and am. Change was indeed within reach! I'm so grateful for these past 6-months of coaching and I will miss the uplifting guidance and teamwork, but I also feel that Chantal has helped me to reach a place where I can for now continue to do the work on my own!

Chantal has a strong sense of gut feeling and there is no way you can hide once she holds up the mirror that gives you quite some confronting insights. She does this without judgement, leaves space for you to look at it and experience it yourself. By occasionally sharing her own life experiences she creates a safe and playful environment. There is room for tears and laughter. I truly belief that Chantal LOVES being a coach and that is why she has the ability to listen, see and reflect in a unique way. She feels very authentic, connects with herself and therefore with her clients. This journey for me was incredibly inspiring and left me knowing I can take on the world as long as i am true to myself and my values in life. To own my life to share it with others.

I was first drawn to Chantal through her yoga teachings, for she consistently brought strong and high energy to her nearly always sold out classes. When I had the opportunity to select a life coach, I was sure that I would want to work with her in this capacity as well, for it seemed natural that her decisiveness and positivity in yoga would cross over. Now, after many sessions of coaching, I can confirm that Chantal brings a take-charge yet good-natured attitude to all that she does, and that this way of doing things has been a great influence on me as I move forward in transitioning to a new career. I am very grateful for our time together, the structure and goals that she guided me to make, and for what the future may bring! Thanks once more, Chantal.

I had the privilege of working with Chantal for 6 months. As a female in a leadership role which consistently requires a significant amount of time while simultaneously trying to balance the challenges of my personal life, I found myself overwhelmed and unable to truly identify what I want from MY life. I found myself consistently working to complete the never-ending “to-do” list, but felt that I was lacking personal fulfilment from both my work and personal life. There was no time to breathe, to reflect, or engage in self-care. In fact, the term self-care was not even part of my vocabulary. I was mentally and physically exhausted, and struggling to find (and hold onto) “my happy”. Enter Chantal. Upon our first meeting, I immediately felt a connection with Chantal – as though she could already see the authentic version of myself and how it was buried in too much “stuff” … as though the baggage of my life was suffocating me. We spoke, honestly and earnestly, and discussed that for there to be change – I had to be willing to put in the work. It wasn’t just about our meetings, but it was about what I would do in-between our meetings. It was knowing there would be homework –tasks that are often difficult to complete both for their time required and for the confrontational nature inherent to them. It would not be easy. It would require acknowledging my own behaviours and learning to assert myself – learning to take control of my life. I went into the process fully prepared to do the work, but I will admit Chantal was right – it was not easy. In fact, it was more difficult than I imagined. It was confrontational. It was emotional. It meant stepping outside of my comfort zone, bit by bit. But as they say, growth only happens when you step outside your comfort zone. And growth happened. Six months later, I am a different person. I am stronger. I am better able to draw my boundaries in my personal and professional life. I am better able to communicate my needs. I am better able to assert myself. And I have identified the core values that I will not compromise in any of my life decisions. I have a better sense of what brings me joy, and I no longer feel apologetic or guilty for these things but rather am learning to embrace the value in self-care. My relationship with my partner is stronger, and as a leader, I am learning to accept that although my approach to leadership may be counter to others – that does not make it wrong. I learned what my inner strengths are – my super powers – and I’m working to use them in my daily life. I learned about the beliefs that often hold me back, and I’m working to fight against – to use them as enablers rather than disablers. I am still a work-in-progress, and I always will be. But Chantal has given me the tools to figure out how to find and maintain my happiness. Through her expertise in positive psychology, I was alerted to the ways I was (unintentionally) sabotaging my happiness. And through her kindness, thoughtfulness, and empathetic nature, she helped me find my authentic self. I truly feel blessed to have had the opportunity to work with and learn from her. She changed my life, of this I am sure.
