Hi, I'm Allyson
And I know what it feels like to stand at a crossroads
I've been right where you are now. At a crossroads. Not sure which direction to take, but knowing something needs to shift. In fact, I've been there many times in my life and I know first-hand the anxiety and overwhelm that comes when the yearning to make a change mixes with the weight of responsibility and pressure.
I was in my late twenties wen I was struck by a feeling of disconnection to my career. It was a strange place to be. I liked my job and enjoyed my colleagues yet I felt weighed down by the thought of staying where I was. I couldn't explain my restlessness, but the so-called resiliency that thought I had cultivated was giving way to resentment and overwhelm. I had spent much of my life working toward everything I now had; why was I letting stress overtake my thinking? It was the first time I was challenged to break from the constraints I had built for myself and move in step with my inner voice. And it was the beginning of a decades-long pursuit to feel okay with changing course and to rewriting the rules.
I had to learn to listen to my intuition, break my resistance to change and work to create a life and future that felt truly aligned.
But it wasn't easy...
I've done a lot in the years since leaving my corporate job. I've built two businesses (now a third), followed my passion for performance and voice work, become a mom, battled a health crises, written a memoir and struggled all along to live fully in those moments and connect with what I truly wanted.
Every time I stood at the crossroads. And each time the doubt, uncertainty and anxiety crept in; "is this the right move?", "what if I fail?", "what if everything falls apart?".
In some cases, even my careful planning couldn't stop some changes from happening. But even when things might have felt like they were falling apart, I didn't fall apart. Each change and every transition, helped me to clarify even deeper the person I wanted to be and the life I wanted to live. The adversity I endured enabled me to feel more grounded in my next choice and to know how to live more firmly with intention.
Now I help people who are at their own crossroads
clear through the uncertainty and connect with their intuition.
As an Energy Leadership Index Master Practitioner, I coach the energy you bring rather than the situation you're facing. We look at how you show up in your life, what's draining you and what's fuelling you, so you can begin to shift from the inside out.
Together, I'll help you connect to what you already know to build a life you actually want. Because everyone deserves to live a life full of joy, love, connection and purpose.

Training & Background
Some things about me. . .
It has to be tea. It was a mainstay in my home growing up. In fact, I've never had a cup of coffee of any kind; only tea of all kinds.
drink of choice
A few favourites - travel, reading, spending time with family and puzzling.
favourite thing to do
Chocolate! It is my obsession. I'm dairy free, so I'm always on the hunt for really good quality (and great tasting!) dark chocolate.
can't live without
Over the course of our sessions together, she consistently reflected things I was saying, but not yet fully seeing, which led to many powerful breakthroughs for me. She brings a rare blend of warmth, humour, and directness that makes her feedback land with both honesty and care. Her presence and insight made a meaningful difference in my growth, and helped me achieve goals that had eluded me for over a year.
Allyson is an exceptional coach
-Iman. A
I have had the privilege of working with Allyson for over six months during a significant transition into a new role, and the impact has been remarkable. She is kind and patient, yet knows exactly when to challenge me, and that balance has made all the difference. She is professional, reliable and deeply committed to her client's success.
I highly recommend Allyson to anyone navigating a transition, stepping into greater responsibility or committed to growing. Working with her has absolutely been worth the investment; the growth and results I've experienced speak for themselves.
Allyson has been a true partner in my growth.
