Your tools can be replicated...
Whether it's Reiki, coaching, mentoring, yoga teaching, or breathwork— right now, thousands of practitioners are using these same techniques.
but you can't.
When I started working in this field, I didn’t know what to call myself. Sometimes I still don’t.
Am I a coach? A mentor? A counsellor? A holistic therapist? (Click here to read about the differences.)
I have a 4-year psychology degree which included a practical year of counselling under supervision. I have a Level 1 & 2 Reiki certification and wholeheartedly practice working with energetics both in my personal life and with those I work with. I spent a year going to NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) classes. I studied and practically applied Eastern philosophy and theology in my life and my client practice. I spent more than a decade running a holistic personal development business for women.
None of the labels fit my vocation.
Because, while I use all of my education and certification in my work, they are not separated into specific parts. Instead, I flow between various approaches and modalities in response to the human being sitting across from me, led by our co-creativity, glued together by my intuition.
There is no absolute formula. What works for one person, does not for another.
Often (as you will see in The Mentor Training case study videos) I close my eyes during a client session and tune inwards to get a sense of what is most needed. Then, carefully, I present the client with the information (like I did here).
I have access to the information because my knowledge gives me the tools to understand and purvey them effectively. However, my ability to know which tools to use and when to apply them comes from something unique to me.
A life-long devotion to being governed by my heart and intuition.
I settled on the word mentor, to describe my work, because — while not perfect — it holds the closest illustration to my philosophy and approach.
The truth is…
The tools we use in our practice — whether it's Reiki, coaching, mentoring, yoga teaching, breathwork, and so on — can be replicated. Right now, thousands of practitioners are using those same techniques.
When we focus solely on these tools, we fall into a dangerous trap. We start comparing ourselves to other practitioners, feeling a subtle sense of threat or competition. This mindset not only stunts our growth but also prevents us from forming deep connections with our work and potential clients.
Here's what cannot be replicated: the unique way YOU relate to these tools. Your personal experiences, your intuition, your voice. These are what make your practice truly one-of-a-kind.
It's not about the tools themselves, but how you give them shape and voice in your work.
When we start to understand and nurture this relationship with our work, magic happens. We build substance and knowledge through practice. We create a standout service that goes beyond the surface level. We learn to translate not just the tools, but the very heartbeat of our practice.
This is where The Mentor Training comes in: Our program is designed to help you tap into this unique power. We don't just teach you tools; we guide you in discovering your authentic voice as a practitioner. Through The Mentor Training, you'll learn to:
Identify and cultivate your unique strengths
Develop a deep, personal relationship with your practice
Translate your tools in a way that resonates with your authentic self
Build confidence in your unique offering

I loved the written manuals and scripts I can turn to!
I just completed The Mentor Training and it was just what I needed to improve on my coaching sessions in my dream interpretation business. The lessons were clear and concise and I loved the written manuals and scripts I can turn to as I continue working with clients. The shares in the replays of the live sessions were so valuable, many of the examples brought up related to personal experience that I was able to learn from as if I was there live with them. I learned so much about the nervous system and how to hold space not only for my clients but for myself as well. Thank you so much for creating this training!
