Lunch in Halifax - seeing where it all happens!
Today, I had the good fortune to go to lunch with Susan in Halifax! I met Susan and other ALIA staffers including Karen and Cara Lynn at ALIA Europe last year. I grew up in Nova Scotia (Amherst actually!) and it was fun to connect with other Nova Scotian's in the middle of Europe at the ALIA gathering! I'm in Halifax for a few weeks - visiting friends and family. I also led a workshop here - Working with Polarity and Wholeness - that was great fun and you can read what people thought of the…See More

Profile Information
- Role
- Coach, Workshop Leader, Facilitator, Writer, Blogger
- Please share something about yourself, your work, and what draws you to the ALIA community.
- I am passionate about facilitating others in their yearning for wholeness through coaching, group work and conscious embodiment. I lead workshops exploring different aspects of polarity because I know that through being able to hold the tension of opposities within ourselves and within the organisations we work with, wholeness in our divided world can emerge. I'm currently training with Wendy Palmer to become an accredited conscious embodiment teacher. My prior experience included working in in the not-for-profit sector for 15 years and my last role was as CEO of the Women's Resource Centre. I'm a keen blogger and writer. My website is http://www.creatingfrompolarity.com and my blog is http://practicalmysticmusings.wordpress.com
