BOOK DOULA
Location: Toronto, Canada
What I do:
I help people painlessly give birth to books and take the expertise and knowledge from book creation to help change lives. I do this through book coaching, writing retreats, publishing and through bookclubs. You might say I’m slightly obsessed with books!!
Professional Experience:
Book Doula, Writing Coach. BA Psychology. Positive Psychology Practitioner. Certified Positive Psychology Life Coach. Founder of Live Life Happy Publishing.
My Story:
Throughout my life, I’ve learned some valuable principles that have been instrumental in my development. Life isn’t perfect, but we can learn and grow while we struggle well. I went from attention deficit disorder and anxiety-ridden childhood to a Yoga Instructor, a Psychology student with no clear career direction, to best-selling author, podcaster helping thousands of people, as a life coach and book doula. My guiding principles are: Let Enthusiasm and Joy Be Your Magnet. Stay In Your Lane. Life Is Tough, But So Are You! Silver Lining to Every Cloud. Knowledge is power; knowledge shared is power multiplied.
The Arts:
Yoga, dance, creating content and working out are all forms of expression I enjoy. Reading and getting lost in a good book are essential for my happiness.
Morning Ritual:
Taking the time in the morning to ask myself three questions: What am I feeling? What am I needing? What am I wanting?
A Little Known Fact About Me…
I believe we should never let struggle go to waste and that we can turn pain into purpose!
