WHAT I BRING
A mix of people, learning + experience design.
THE STORY BEHIND THE WORKHow I arrived hereRead more +
A recovering workaholic.
My interest in wellbeing grew through my own health challenges + my experience as a recovering workaholic. I spent around 15 years building an incredible career, while continuing to burn myself out by not balancing my workload.
That led me into my own research + experimentation journey around wellbeing, my habits and more sustainable ways of working.
Becoming a parent changed how I wanted to work.
When I became a parent, my capacity to do almost anything other than parenting was massively challenged. Over the past six years, I’ve had to develop a new way of showing up + reconsider how I prioritise my energy, time, money, work + relationships.
I don’t want to create separate worlds where I’m working full-time + parenting part-time. My goal is to parent full-time + work part-time, with my children more integrated into the life I’m creating.
Learning alongside my kids.
I wanted to explore wellbeing practices with my kids, but I didn’t really know how to facilitate that myself. So I went to classes and learned from people who did.
When I discovered classes designed for adults + children to participate in together, I saw how powerful the shared experience could be. We came away more connected, with shared tools + language we could use at home.
Creating the container.
I’ve spent years coaching technology, marketing + leadership teams, designing learning experiences, leading large programs and supporting groups of coaches + facilitators. I also worked with Eventbase, a Canadian technology company supporting major events across North America and beyond.
Wild + Well brings those threads together on a local, human scale. I can create the container, hold the moving pieces + help brilliant facilitators bring their work to more families.
