In 2007, I transformed my life!

I faced my fears, developed self-trust and followed my dream of living in the sun and moved to the Caribbean! I lost 20 pounds and loads of stress!! My life was a good life, one that many people referred to as “perfect” but it didn´t feel perfect and I knew intuitively that I needed something different. I tried so hard to make it work but I knew I could no longer continue down the same path. I found my voice and within six months, I was on a plane to the Caribbean!

Several years have passed since I began this journey and I am truly joyful! I have discovered my life purpose and am living accordingly. I ended the struggle.

I regularly stop in awe of the amazing power we have to create a life we love!

Employment:

My life’s purpose is to inspire and empower others to follow their hearts. Professionally, I have accumulated over twelve years of experience aligned with helping people create a life they love but I have been encouraging others to share their divine gifts for as long as I can remember. The world really is waiting for you to contribute your strengths with others! You are unique and we need YOU!

My passion is to help people discover their life purpose, to let go of their fear of change and believe in their dreams. To give you a bit more of an idea of my approach, I share with you here some of the training I have completed:

• Life and Life Purpose and Career Coaching Certificates
• Jack Canfield’s Law of Attraction Coaching Program
• Masters of Science- Rehabilitation Counselling – M.Sc.
• Human Resources Management Certificate
• Bachelor of Arts – Sociology – Dean´s List recipient – B.A.
• Social Services Worker Diploma – S.S.W.
• Reality Therapy – Choice Theory Counselling by William Glasser: Basic and Advanced Certificates
• Preventing and Managing Aggressive Behaviour Certificate
• Team Building Certificate
• Immigrants Breaking Through Employment Barriers Certificate
• Common Assessment Certificate
• Teaching English as a Second Language Certificate
• Addictions Studies

International Volunteer Experience:

I arrived in late August 2007 to volunteer for 12 weeks to teach English to children in an impoverished area of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic and ended up staying for 2 years!!

I would travel over an hour each way by public car and motorcycle up a semi mountain to the school. It was exhilarating! We lived in a small apartment with one bedroom and one bathroom shared by 6 international women! The single room had 3 bunk beds and without a TV, we sat religiously on the patio, talked and bonded. Surprisingly, we rarely complained.

This experience changed my life in profound ways and has clarified the way I want to be in the world. If you want to learn more about how you can volunteer internationally, contact me and I will share more information.

“I have had many teachers over the years, but I honestly can´t think of one that was as pleasant, helpful or effective as you. From participating in your workshops I have experienced a great increase in my self-awareness and confidence, and I will be forever grateful for that…you showed tremendous expertise and empathy…Thank you so much for your excellent help. “

“Kelly assisted me with planning and refocusing my goals in life. She helped me to understand the potential I had and help me gain the confidence in pursuing a new direction. Kelly was a great support throughout the changes in my life and was always there to talk to when things would get me down. She continues to be a mental source of confidence for me… Kelly has valuable insight that people will definitely benefit from.”

Barb Newton
“After graduating from college I was really struggling with finding a direction in my life and career. After just a few short talks with Kelly, I began to realize what my passions are, and what steps I need to take to follow them. Kelly’s insight and advice is sound, and she is such a good facilitator! She asked a few carefully worded and pointed questions, and I came up with all of the ideas on my own, which made me feel great about myself!”
Mandy Sciacchitano
“I have known Kelly for over a year, and the positivity and inspiration that she has brought into my life during that time has been overwhelming…I am focused, motivated, and am achieving my dreams! I am enrolled in a masters program, saving money, losing weight healthily and am being kind to myself. I think the greatest thing that Kelly has shown me is the power of positive thinking, visualization, and the importance of laying daily groundwork in order the live the life that I envision for myself.”
Robin Young MBA
“Words cannot express what a blessing Kelly has been for my life. Her gentle, guiding hand has helped me tremendously in taking my Virtual Assistant business – and all areas of my life – to the next level. I know I couldn’t have done it without her. Through her encouragement and support, I have been able to clarify and streamline my goals and desires for my business and other areas of my life – and work to make those goals a reality. I highly recommend Kelly to any professional woman looking to take her career to the next level!”
Carol D’Annunzio, VA
“I found Kelly on www.intent.com. Her story resonated with me so I took a leap of faith and contacted her… I have never regretted it. She has instantly become a friend and cheerleader. She has a way of guiding me into saying out loud that which I tend to deny…which then it makes it a reality and then it shifts into a better place! It has only been two months and so much has happened to and for me due to Kelly’s guidance. I look forward to our session every week. My life will never be the same and I owe Kelly a special thanks of gratitude for that!”
Tiffany Sanborn
“Over the past couple of months, my life has changed… For the past couple of months, I’ve had a Life Coach. With her as my guide, my supporter, my cheerleader and accountability provider, I have navigated through many of the obstacles that have been holding me back for so long. As a Life Coach, Kelly can assist people with many areas in their lives…Careers, relationships, health/wellness, goals, and most importantly, discovering a sense of balance between them all.
I’m sharing all of this with you… because I am proud of the distance I have traveled to get to where I am today and to see where I am going for the first time – EVER.”
Skye Woolston
“Kelly definitely embraces life to the fullest and her enthusiasm is contagious. As a great coach, she knows when you need to reflect & retreat, and when you need to be pushed out of your comfort zone. In the few months I’ve worked with her, I’ve become more effective at work, and have achieved a clearer focus for both my career and my personal life. She is an authentic, all-natural, performance enhancer specialist.”
Y. Wingate
“I have found that Kelly’s deep, thoughtful listening and helpful “action” tips often lead to new solutions to obstacles or anxieties that I face, and always leads to an increased sense of peace about facing those obstacles and anxieties. “
Katrina Rogachevsky, graduate of Princeton University
“I have had many teachers over the years, but I honestly can´t think of one that was as pleasant, helpful or effective as you. From participating in your workshops I have experienced a great increase in my self-awareness and confidence, and I will be forever grateful for that…you showed tremendous expertise and empathy…Thank you so much for your excellent help. “
