Why I Choose to Use the Word Mentor Instead of Life Coach.

I want to help people be happy, healthy and free from the pressure society places upon them. This is why I have spent years perfecting my psychic readings to be more guidance from beyond than fortune telling gimmicks. It is why I have, and continue to study ways to be a successful life coach, healer and support to the clients who come to me.

I am just not comfortable using the term life coach to describe my services, I don't feel like I am a coach, I'm not running plays for you or clapping from the sideline. I am right there on the field, not catching the ball, that is after all still your job, but I am supporting you, we are on the same team. I show you catching the hardest ball is possible, and then I watch as you start to believe you really can catch it.

You will have to forgive me the clunky sports analogy, it is an area in life where I have never been (and probably never will be), motivated to be an expert. The word coach makes me think of sports, ignoring pain and tough love. Many life coaches tell you tough love is needed, so I guess for them coach is the right word. It just isn't the word for me, for what I offer my clients.

I use mentor because it comes from a place of love and connection. Don't get me wrong, I know there must be boundaries between myself and my clients, but I am deeply invested in helping everyone who comes to me. As your spiritual mentor I hold space with you, let you express your self and then together we find the path forward.

My sessions are based on the practices of life coaching, however they go deeper on a spiritual level and your guides and sometimes past loved ones are there with us. I use my natural compassion, psychic mediumship, and intuition as I truly listen to what not only your physical self, but your soul is saying.

We use the first sessions to delve deeply into your subconscious and find what holds you back and how we can change your limiting beliefs. We set goals and break them down into manageable steps. We talk confidentially about your life, and mine, and how to overcome comfortable habits which no longer serve us.


As your mentor, it is my place to nurture you, encourage you, praise you, and celebrate you. I will never judge you, rush you, mislead you or give up on you. From me you will get the truth, but, it will never be cold or hard. I believe by nurturing you and giving you space to forgive and nurture yourself anything is possible.

Now I know you are going to ask how I know anything is possible, and that is a good question. I grew up as a victim, never having a voice of my own, believing I was as worthless as those meant to nurture me said I was. I took this victimhood into adult life, I was not an active participant, I allowed things to happen to me (both good and bad) instead of taking control of my future.

I am a survivour of childhood abuse, death defying situations, sexual assult, self harming behaviours, suicide attempts and self loathing. I have not only survived though, I have thrived. All these things made me stronger, gave me the life experience to be able to share and help others. I have shed the victim skin, and now shine as my own hero, and a pioneer for those ready to step forward and find their own sparkle.


It took over 40 years to reach this place where I am able to see my strength and the gifts I have to offer the world. I now stand tall, shruging off the harsh judgements of society. I know my worth and I know my goals. I see beauty and love from the Divine everywhere, and yet still know the value of our shadow selves. I am profoundly spiritual, deeply grounded, always authentic and 100% motivated to help my clients see how unique and wonderfully sacred their soul is.
