I’ll just cut to the chase here

You’ve read this far, so you’re probably looking for a top-notch coach or mentor.

You haven’t got hundreds of leisurely hours to wade through possible options.

You want a credentialed professional, with a track record of success and lots of recommendations from satisfied clients.

My story in brief cue the band.

I graduated from Wilfrid Laurier University with my bright and shiny degree in Psychology and after a brief detour selling real estate (really), I landed a great job as a learning specialist in a training and development organization.

A few years passed happily enough and I was ready for a bigger challenge. The challenge showed up dressed as an opportunity to travel North America delivering management workshops for audiences of up to 750 people. Loved it! The energy! The applause! (The exhaustion? Not so much.)

A bajillion frequent flyer miles later, I decided to set up camp closer to home and founded the wildly successful, eventually multi-award winning, training and development firm ShaughnessyHowell. After 19 years of exciting large scale learning projects, I sensed a seismic shift in the learning landscape approaching. It turned out to be the thrilling field of coaching stomping its way toward me.

In 2008, compelled to find out more, I went to Royal Roads University and enrolled in the outstanding Graduate Certificate in Executive Coaching program. I was hooked. I resigned my partnership, launched my coaching practice and have been living my passion for coaching ever since.

As an ICF Master Certified Coach with over 10,000 coaching hours to my credit, I coach senior leaders, mentor credentialed coaches, and share top-notch resources to help you build your skills.
