Hey You! I’m Jenn.

I’m so happy you’re here. I’m a yoga teacher, life coach, writer and proud owner of a studio in Muskoka. It may seem like I wear many different hats but everything I do is tied together with a common thread.

My passion for helping you embrace who you really are so you can live a life that you love.

I believe the change you’re seeking happens on the inside. When you clean up the noise in your head, get clear on what your heart really wants and learn to love and appreciate yourself, all the outside pieces will come together.

COACHING

I believe that lasting change and transformation starts within. As a life coach, I support my clients in learning to recognize and then question the voice in their head that holds them back so they can live with more meaning, purpose and joy.

The biggest barrier between you and the life you want to live is - you. The clock is ticking. Ready to build a life you love?

Last week I wrote a post - that I never shared - about us leaving London and moving to yet another new country. This was never part of ‘the plan’ when we came over here. I had a lot of mixed emotions about starting fresh again, living away from family and friends for longer and had a lot of anxiety about how the business I love in Canada was going to fit into this life that was pulling me away from it. My brain has been on over drive with what if’s, predictions and fear that this next adventure was going to hurt my career.
.
Ready for the funny part? As of this week, that post and those worries are completely irrelevant.
.
WE’RE COMING HOME!!!!
.
When this quick and unexpected change presented itself, I was annoyed that I wasted so much energy worrying about something that isn’t even going to happen. Then I realized that’s an even bigger waste of my time. This year was meant to teach me to have faith and trust that life is always leading me - and you - exactly where we’re supposed to be - even if that looks a lot different than we pictured. This didn’t click right away which is probably why I had to spend 6 months working on it before life was like ‘just kidding’. And in that was another big lesson.
.
Don’t worry about things that haven’t happened yet.
.
Yes, I know, you have to plan for the future but that’s a whole lot different than worrying endlessly about it. I lost hours, days, if I’m honest, weeks to my worried mind this year but that’s okay. I’ll remember this for the next big change coming my way.
.
I’m so proud of Mike for how hard he’s worked over here and grateful that he carved a path for us to go on this London adventure. And while I really had embraced the next one and learned to trust that there was a reason I was being sent down this different path, I’m really happy that life steered us in another direction at the last second. One that leads straight back to all of the people that we love the most.
.
Excited to call Toronto home again very soon.

$Don’t you love when the universe sends you a sure sign that you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be? . I wrote about uncertainty on Monday and less than 24 hours later I stepped into @mindfulsonder’s {amazing} class for the first time and heard this: . “Relax. When you try to control everything, you enjoy nothing. Trust the wait and embrace uncertainty. When nothing is certain, anything is possible. Feel the power that comes from focusing on how you want to feel and let the Universe fill in the details.” @awakened_s . It’s so easy to think that we can only feel the way we want to feel once we’ve arranged all the parts and pieces of our life together in a perfect picture. This year has taught me that the picture is always, always changing and attaching our peace, our happiness and our ability to be calm to all the stuff on the outside is a guaranteed way to feel stressed, anxious and out of control. . I’m grateful for the little nudge I received on my mat this week that while there may be some chaos on the outside right now and some unknowns in the details, I always have a choice. I can create peace on the inside and trust that the details will come together as they’re supposed to - because deep down I know that they will. . And guess what? You have that choice too. . Happy Sunday lovelies. I miss you! . And a big thank you to Mariel for unknowingly sharing exactly what I needed to hear. ❤️✌🏻 . . . . #yoga #muskokayoga #yogamuskoka #dockyoga #headstand #offthemat #yogalessons #onmymat #pycmuskoka #iloveyoga #perspective #discoveron #muskoka #muskokalife$

You know the stereotypical yoga teacher that’s all laid back and go with the flow? That’s not me.
.
I’m a figure things out in my head 500 times over before they’ve happened kind of girl. That’s why I love this practice. It gives us the tools to cope when life changes and we’re surrounded by uncertainty.
.
The changes I mentioned in the fall are approaching and the plans for them have changed more times than I can count. Given my love of control, the past few months have made me really uncomfortable. Just when I think I have a plan, life comes in and changes things up on me again.
.
Most days I feel inspired to embrace the unknown, some days I feel lost and there’s the odd bad day where FaceTiming my Mom in tears seems like the best option. Any other adults still do that?
.
Transitions force us to figure out how to be okay with discomfort, roll with mixed emotions and keep anticipation in check. A move. A career change. A breakup. Big or small. Chosen or forced. Whatever the change may be, it’s so easy to fall into the trap of wasting your energy trying to figure it all out before it’s time. So I thought I’d share the reminders I’ve been telling myself as I’m over here hanging out in the in-between.
.
SOMETIMES YOU JUST CAN’T PLAN. There are times in life when uncertainty outweighs stability. The best thing you can do is accept that things are shifting. Remember that although you feel lost right now, you’ll feel settled again in the future.
.
SEE THE STABILITY. Ever notice when one thing in your life feels out of place it’s all your mind wants to focus on? If you’re wrapped up in the things that aren’t stable, step back and see the things that are. What really matters in my life right now is so secure. The parts that are shifting are circumstances and material things - for that I’m grateful.
.
TRUST. Life is unfolding exactly as it should even if your brain is swirling with a a bunch of questions that don’t yet have answers. If the way things were doesn’t feel like your life anymore and the way things are going to be hasn’t quite set in yet, trust that life has a way of leading you even when you can’t see where you’re headed.
.
That’s all.
Lots of love.
✌🏻❤
