"I consider Todd to be one of the most influential people in my life, both personally and professionally.

For over ten years I have sought him out in various roles - boss, mentor, coach.

He has a unique ability to cut through to the core of an issue, and his unique blend of humour, empathy and optimism hold space for the sometimes tough work of navigating the world."

Stuart M, London

"The mission I am called to serve has been a long and challenging path of creativity and self-discovery that continues to stretch and shape me in formidable ways.

Karen's astute yet supportive presence and gentle guidance have been invaluable in this journey. During our work together I have found her to be a tremendous ally.

She asks the right questions, not always the most comfortable or easy ones, but ones that have me exploring my mission more deeply. She holds the space for me to process whatever might be in the way of what I am moving towards, in a highly intelligent, compassionate and loving way. I always emerge from our sessions with a deeper soul connection, greater clarity and increasingly empowered to take my mission to the next level.

Victoria Wilding, International Mentor, Speaker

"Karen and Todd are very engaging, insightful and caring and their attention to detail and preparation was second to none in all the activities that were part of the retreat.

They create a space where each person feels safe and nurtured and can open up and connect with others and yet also be on their own unique journey without pressure or judgement. I highly recommend working with them and participating in their retreats and programs."
