"Gwen has been a fabulous coach during the past year – working with me to expand my boundaries and horizons, push beyond limits I had previously set for myself and has worked with me to reconsider my beliefs, values and attitudes, letting go of those which no longer serve me and creating those that will support my transformation and ongoing evolution.
Gwen has a unique and powerful, yet very creative, innovative and playful approach to "coaching" and using the Wel-systems Ò models, we achieved success far beyond any other coaching techniques that I have worked with.
Our relationship has been powerful and beneficial from a professional, personal and health perspective and Gwen has more than earned my respect and trust.”

“You are a role model for evolution. So… I wanted to start the year by thanking you for your coaching and the transformation made possible by the nudges of the last year, gentle or less gentle!
I know clients do their own work and that coaches facilitate. I also know that a spark can trigger a tsunami, when one is ready to listen. It didn’t appear so, but I was ready to listen.
At the higher levels of thinking, as you had predicted, the voie royale of discovery came through my sculpting. Geezz I’m good at it! I can’t believe what is coming out of my fingers. My patience with clay is infinite, even for details: positioning a smile, a frown, muscles, tendons. I could go on. I am completely in love with my creatures! The teacher says he has nothing to teach me, except to trust myself and truly experience what I see through my eyes and fingers (yes, often I close my eyes to sculpt). Another discovery, as you speak about writing, is that I sculpt my legends. Imagine that! I do the Siren and then write a legend about it. I write about a slave in St-Domingue and then seem to sculpt her and the people in her life. The cycle is repeated again and again. One enriches the other, and the metaphors change my life. I am so thrilled, I brag to all my clients about my sculpting and learn that this one is a painter, this one a photographer, this one a Romance Writer.
My existing Canadian business is gracefully losing momentum. My new includes art, writing and consulting – in exotic locales, of course! A continuum, rather than either/or. Love the sound of that.
So… thank you, thank you, thank you. So glad I didn’t give birth to another misguided effort. This is for real and for good…. Until the next tsunami.
