Over the last 3 years I have gained an appreciation for helping others set and achieve goals through the renowned Transformation Weekend Retreats, created and facilitated by Erin Skye Kelly (ESK). This year I graduated from the Transformation Weekend Master Trainer program and am ready to facilitate this amazing retreat. Through this process I began to dream big and learned how to achieve my goals, and this is how "Live Love Lighthouse" - Life Coaching was born. I have also completed a certification called Adventures in WISDOM. This is a coaching process that helps children develop powerful life skills such as self-esteem, standing up to peer pressure, and self-confidence. Up until now the focus of my career has always been working with children with cancer. I always knew that pediatric oncology was my passion, but the day I learned that I could be a nurse at cancer camp was the day my passion came full circle. I am so incredibly lucky that I get to see children with cancer experiencing the magic of summer camp. Cancer camp and all of the brave children I have met has taught me valuable life lessons that I love sharing with others. The name Lighthouse holds a special place in my heart for a number of reasons; it is a symbol of where I grew up (Nova Scotia), and it is my camp name. This name was given to me to represent what I do at cancer camp, which is to ensure that everyone is happy, healthy, and safe. I am responsible for guiding and shining light. I truly feel this Modern Affirmation says what I hope to help you achieve: I am Lighthouse rather than lifeboat. I do not rescue, but instead help others to find their own way to shore, guiding by example.
