Hi, I’m Angela
My approach combines neuroscience with practical, real-world strategies to help you understand how your brain and body respond during times of growth and transformation. Together, we’ll dig into what drives you, untangle the layers of identity shaped by work and expectations, and find ways to align your choices with what matters most to you. I bring care, curiosity, and empathy to every conversation, creating a space where your experiences are valued and your next steps are clear and actionable.
With nearly 20 years in senior HR roles across post-secondary, non-profit, and private sectors — and as an entrepreneur — I bring deep expertise in leadership development, workplace culture, and talent management. I hold an MBA from Saint Mary’s University, a Graduate Certificate in Executive Coaching, and the ACC credential from the International Coaching Federation. My training includes emotional intelligence assessments, neuroscience-based coaching, and Brené Brown’s Dare to Lead™ framework.
Outside of coaching, I’m deeply connected to my community, focusing on supporting and empowering diverse voices and lived experiences so more people can thrive both personally and professionally.
coaching the Whole You
Your career doesn’t stand alone — it’s shaped by your experiences, beliefs, and the way your brain and body respond to stress and change. Coaching the whole person means looking beyond résumés and job titles to understand what truly drives you.
Using neuroscience-based tools and strategies, I help you uncover patterns in how you think, feel, and act — so you can navigate challenges with resilience and move toward the future you want.
Together, we’ll co-create a career path that’s aligned with your values and strengths, while building the energy and focus you need to show up fully at work. This isn’t just about landing the next role; it’s about creating lasting growth and a career that feels like yours. If you’re looking for a Canadian career coach online or seeking career coaching anywhere in Canada, I’d love to work with you.
